First co-defendant in Trump Georgia election case pleads guilty

A bail bondsman charged in the Georgia election interference case has pleaded guilty to misdemeanor charges, becoming the first defendant to accept a plea deal.
The defendant, Hall, pleaded guilty to five counts of conspiracy to commit intentional interference with election duties and will receive five years of probation, a fine, community service, and must testify against other defendants.
This plea deal is a significant development in the case and a victory for the Fulton County District Attorney as she pursues a racketeering case against the former president and others involved.
