According to Georgia's Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act it is a crime to participate in, acquire or maintain control of an"enterprise" through a"pattern of racketeering activity" or to conspire to do so.
The scheme the charge relates to does not need to have been successful for it to be considered criminal.Several other people have been charged including former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, Trump's former lawyer and ex New York mayor Rudy Giuliani and John Eastman, another of Trump's ex lawyers.
In a statement passed to US broadcaster NBC by an adviser, Giuliani said:"This is an affront to American Democracy and does permanent, irrevocable harm to our justice system. It's just the next chapter in a book of lies with the purpose of framing President Donald Trump and anyone willing to take on the ruling regime.
"The real criminals here are the people who have brought this case forward both directly and indirectly."All the defendants were charged with racketeering, which carries a penalty of up to 20 years in prison. The court in Atlanta sat beyond usual working hours as a grand jury decided whether or not to charge the former president.
