‘Proof Beyond a Reasonable Doubt’: Joyce Vance on the Standard that Fani Willis Must Meet to Charge the Three Senators

RUSH EXCERPT:
VANCE: “Once that decision is made by the investigative grand jury, then Fani Willis, the Fulton County D.A., has to evaluate the evidence to see whether it rises to the much higher standard she must meet in the courtroom, proof beyond a reasonable doubt. Here, it looks like she took this many months where people were critical of her, not only putting together her case but making very careful consideration of which of the defendants that there was probable cause to proceed on. Actually, they had accumulated sufficient evidence to be confident of a conviction on trial.”
