Atlanta’s top prosecutor who’s probing possible election interference by former President Donald Trump in Georgia says she’s requested enhanced security from the FBI after remarks that Trump made at a rally over the weekend.
Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis sent a letter to J.C. Hacker, the head of the FBI’s Atlanta field office, asking him to carry out a risk assessment of the county courthouse and nearby government buildings after Trump urged supporters to target her for large-scale protests, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution and WXIA-TV reported.
“We must work together to keep the public safe and ensure that we do not have a tragedy in Atlanta similar to what happened at the United States Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021,” she told Hacker.
