The sole remaining criminal case against President Donald Trump has now been dropped, after a new prosecutor took over from Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis and urged a judge to dismiss the case, which had alleged Trump and others tried to overturn the 2020 election.
Prosecutor Peter Skandalakis filed a motion with the court asking for the case to be dismissed after he took over the probe from Willis, who was disqualified from overseeing the case due to her romantic relationship with prosecutor Nathan Wade.
Judge Scott McAfee granted the prosecutor’s motion and dropped the case in a one-page order minutes later, ruling the case is now “dismissed in its entirety.”
