The Fulton County document listed 12 felony counts and one serious felony count for violating Georgia’s RICO Act.
Here’s the leaked doc:

Why does this look more like a receipt from my auto mechanic?

Stop. I can only eat so much popcorn!
IANAL. It sounds silly to me too have felonies and “serious felonies”. All felonies seem pretty serious to me!
“I may have committed some light treason”
“My heart and my best intentions tell me that’s true, but the facts and evidence tell me it is not.”
“Pop Pop gets a treat?”
Apparently “serious felony” is a real thing in Georgia. Regardless.
In this case the serious felony requires a minimum of 20 years in prison
Another way to rank them how other states have first/second/third degree felonies.
Kind of like how burglary is a bad, but not as bad as murder or rape.
16-10-20 - given that we’re all learning about Georgia law tonight, it was fascinating to read that they also have a “lying to the government” law like the one that so many people cite in federal cases
I’m concerned that they will use this leak to somehow claim a mistrial since the charges were leaked before they selected the jury, and they’ll win the appeal.
Exactly!! this is what I was thinking! i can totally see him using it as a way to get out of trouble. he always does
is this a strategic leak to further spin the accused out of control? more rope?
I doubt that. It’s government bureaucracy, people make mistakes, even the court.
i am just worried this mistake could lead to a mistrial
you’re probably right. but I like the idea of it being a strategic move to troll the orange turd enough to disregard your comment.
don’t take my idle fantasies from me.
I’d bet it was automated.
Probably just some clerk getting too eager to finally put the screws to the old, stupid windbag after seeing how far ahead of schedule they’re running.
The fact that he’ll spin out even harder is a bonus.
The government automate stuff. That’s funny, (fed)

I like that this post appears to have negative one downvotes. It’s not a bug, it’s a feature.
Sometimes Lemmy is a silly little thing.
I’m gonna make my own social media platform that has up and down arrows that generate random numbers next to a message like “At least some people probably like this.” And if you post too frequently a banner appears at the top of all the pages with your IP address. Also viruses. Just lots and lots of viruses.
You could have down votes too but it means you’re down with the post, so it’s a good thing.
What about side votes?
