The Prosecuting Attorneys’ Council of Georgia on Thursday named their own executive director Pete Skandalakis to serve as special prosecutor in investigating Georgia Lt Gov Burt Jones over his involvement in disgraced former President Trump’s failed post-2020 election coup attempt in the Peach State. The only reason Jones wasn’t indicted already in Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis’s sprawling RICO case against Team MAGA was because she fucked up and campaigned for Jones’s Democrat opponent in the 2022 election and a judge ordered her recusal.
“Pursuant to the authority contained in OCGA § 15-18-5, Peter J Skandalakis, Executive Director of the Prosecuting Attorneys’ Council of Georgia, or his designee, will be appointed to act as District Attorney Pro Tempore, Atlanta Judicial Circuit, in the matter concerning Burt Jones. In accordance with State Bar Rule 3.8 Special Responsibilities of a Prosecutor and pending litigation, no further comments will be made at this time” said a notice from the Georgia PAC.
