A judge is set Friday to make public a report, for months shrouded in secrecy, on alleged efforts by former President Donald Trump and his allies to overturn Georgia's 2020 election results.
Most of the report, by a special purpose grand jury in Fulton County, Georgia, was ordered to be withheld from the public as the district attorney there considered charges against Trump and others in his orbit.
"Much has changed since that February order was entered," wrote Judge Robert McBurney in a Aug. 28 order indicating the report would be released Friday unless objections were raised by concerned parties. "As anyone with an internet connection now knows, the district attorney has indicted 19 individuals for their alleged participation in a 'racketeering enterprise' purportedly designed to interfere with the lawful administration of the 2020 general election in Georgia."

When the charred remains of prominent commercial real estate attorney Gary Farris were discovered on a burn pile with a bullet lodged in a rib bone, detectives knew they were facing a homicide investigation. The crime scene was on a sprawling 10-acre property in Cherokee County, Georgia, where Gary Farris lived with his wife Melody and their son Scott.

A private equity executive turned his New York City apartment into a torture chamber of "grotesque sexual violence," Manhattan prosecutors said Thursday. Ryan Hemphill is accused of raping six women over five months in a depraved rampage in which he allegedly punched, waterboarded and shocked victims with a cattle prod and kept recordings of the assaults as trophies.
