Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis requested security assistance from the FBI Sunday for her 2020 election investigation that involves former President Donald Trump.
In a letter to the FBI, she said that Trump’s comments at a Texas rally Saturday, in which he called for protests if prosecutors do “anything wrong or illegal,” escalated security concerns for her office. Willis, a Democrat, is requesting a risk assessment, protective resources, and federal agents.
