Aug 14 (Reuters) - The Fulton County, Georgia, court's website briefly posted a document on Monday listing several criminal charges against former U.S. President Donald Trump that appeared related to his attempts to overturn his 2020 election defeat in the state, before taking the document down without explanation.

This one should really scare everyone involved, although I'm guessing all the underlings and fake elector types are going to get deals offered to turn on Trump and if they are smart, they'll take it because he'd throw them under a bus without fail.

Edit: If I had to guess, I'd assume these are all the charges they are preparing and somebody let the prepared document go early before the Grand Jury took the vote.

Right. I have to wonder if this was really a mistake, though? With a case this high profile, I would expect them to be extra cautious.

Of course, mistakes do happen.
