Chesebro created and distributed false documents in Georgia and other states for people to submit to the National Archives and Congress posing as presidential electors, according to Daysha Young, the executive district attorney in Fulton County.
“The defendant provided detailed instructions to co-conspirators in Georgia and other states for creating and distributing these false documents,” she said.
Chesebro’s deal gets the prosecution closer to John Eastman, who around that time appears to have been in “constant communication” with Rudy Giuliani and Donald Trump, said Melissa Redmon, a former Fulton County prosecutor who directs the University of Georgia School of Law’s Prosecutorial Justice Program.
Those connections will help the state paint a picture for the jury of the false elector activity being ultimately motivated by a desire to make sure Trump retained the presidency “by any means necessary,” Redmon said.
