Unindicted Co-Conspirator 1
An Arizona grand jury indictment identifies Donald Trump as Unindicted Co-Conspirator 1: "A former president of the United States who spread false claims of election fraud following the 2020 election."
Arizona has become the fourth state to indict multiple defendants in a wide ranging conspiracy to overturn the 2020 election. The 18 indicted individuals include the fake electors who signed false affidavits as well as seven top Trump associates including Mark Meadows, Rudy Giuliani, and John Eastman, who were the architects of the fake elector plot. Also indicted is attorney Chiristina Bobb who led efforts to promote Trump's false conspiracy theories about the 2020 election on national media and was recently appointed by the RNC to head their newly formed “election integrity division."
