Georgia prosecutors have launched a criminal investigation into former President Donald Trump for his efforts to challenge the state’s presidential election results, according to The New York Times.

Fulton County recently elected Democratic prosecutor, Fani Willis, sent a letter to state officials on Wednesday requesting that they preserve documents and records related to a Jan. 2 phone call between then-President Trump and Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger. The letter specifically said that Trump was under criminal investigation for his conduct during the call, a state official familiar with the letter told The New York Times.
