Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis had requested an order that would limit revealing jurors’ names and likenesses during any trial in the case.

A judge granted Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis’ request to restrict identifying information about jurors in the Georgia election interference case, a new court filing shows.

In a two-page order Monday, Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee imposed strict limits regarding the identities of jurors involved in any trial in the case against former President Donald Trump and 18 co-defendants.

The court’s standing rules restrict using photographic or electronic equipment without a judge’s consent. McAfee’s order offers additional protections by prohibiting drawing in an identifiable manner or otherwise recording images, statements or conversations of jurors or prospective jurors.

    Plus just libeling and slandering them. I’m beyond sick of his bullshit like calling prosecutors doing their jobs ‘DERANGED’. Trump is a believer in ‘repeat things enough times and they become true’. With his stupid nicknames and labels, we hear them so often that it comes to mind for me when I think of the person, even though I think whatever he said was incredibly stupid. The problem is the media dutifully amplifies his message… “Trump calls Jack Smith deranged! Deranged Jack Smith!”

      Hmm, I did Nazi you mention who the pioneers of this particular propaganda technique were, and why Trump would use their tactics.
