On June 12th, 2020, the Georgia Court websites, known as the Georgia Online Judicial Gateway, published a list of charges against Donald Trump. The charges were related to matters previously handled by the Georgia court system. The list was online for a short time before being deleted, creating speculation about the reasons it was removed.
The list revealed a series of misdemeanor charges against Trump that had been mysteriously dropped in court, dating from when he worked in real estate from 1980 to 1989. The charges included alleged violations of the Georgia Labor and Industrial Relations Code, Georgia Trust Fund Act, and Georgia Security and Immigration Compliance Act.
The removal of this list has caused speculation about why it was taken down so quickly. Many believe it could be due to the 2016 presidential election, which Trump won. Other speculation suggests it could be because of fear of repercussions from the Trump Administration.
However, there is also an argument to suggest that the list was removed as the charges were not anything to be serious about. They were not part of any criminal investigation and date as far back as the 80s. Despite the short-lived appearance of the list, it has done a great deal to raise questions regarding Trump’s history in Georgia.
It is unclear at this point why the list was taken down and why it was posted in the first place. The removal of the list has raised many questions about the reasons behind it, leaving many to speculate.
In any case, the list provides an interesting look into the court system in Georgia and into some of Trump’s past dealings. It could also be seen as a warning sign to other state court systems to be more transparent in their proceedings.
