0:53Now PlayingDonald Trump and some of his top administration officials and associates were indicted in Atlanta over efforts to overturn the results of his 2020 election defeat in Georgia, the fourth criminal case against the former president as he campaigns for the White House.
The indictment, approved by a grand jury on Monday, charges Trump and 18 other defendants, including former New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani, former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, and former senior Justice Department official Jeffrey Clark, with racketeering and other crimes. The indictment sets the stage for another dramatic arraignment and, presumably, another plea of not guilty by the former president.
Trump, 77, was charged with racketeering, which was the central count in the indictment, and included 161 specific acts in furtherance of that conspiracy. That charge carries a minimum of five years and up to 20 years in prison, but Trump would be expected to face far less time than the top end penalty.
