Georgia prosecutors commence grand jury selection process for Trump inquiry — Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis speaks during an interview at her office, Feb. 24, 2021, in Atlanta. The prosecutor who's investigating whether Donald Trump and others broke the law by trying to pressure Georgia officials to overturn Joe Biden's presidential election victory is asking the FBI for security help after the former president railed against prosecutors investigating him.

Jury selection is set to commence on Monday for Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis’s investigation into 2020 election interference, which involves former President Donald Trump.

The Fulton County Sheriff’s Office closed nearby roads and increased security on Monday as a precautionary measure in the high-profile case to ensure the juror selection process, in which 16 to 23 people will be seated, as well as three alternates, goes uninterrupted.
