Emily Kohrs, the 30-year-old Atlanta-area resident who served for eight months as foreman of the special grand jury, said in media interviews this week that the panel recommended multiple indictments in its report, the details of which a Fulton County judge had ordered sealed.

Kohrs said that the list of recommended indictments "is not short," that there would be no "plot twist" when the public finally gets to see the contents of the report and that regarding "the big name that everyone keeps asking me about" — presumably Trump himself — "I don't think you will be shocked."

Several legal experts said they were surprised and concerned by Kohrs's unusually candid commentary, which included evaluation of witnesses, tidbits about jurors socializing with prosecutors and a stated hope that the investigation yields charges because of how much time she and others invested in the case.

The remarks could cause additional challenges for Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, whose investigation has come under scrutiny for what some have described as legal and ethical missteps. Superior Court Judge Robert McBurney effectively barred Willis from investigating Lt. Gov. Burt Jones (R), who served as one of Trump's false electors in Georgia, after Willis hosted a fundraiser for his opponent.
