Judge McAfee has issued his decision. It was long awaited. It is something Trump asked for, see, because Kenneth Chesbrough and Sidney Powell, they
0:34
requested a speedy trial to begin in five weeks in October. Well DA Fannie Willis said, if you get a speedy trial, everybody gets a speedy trial
0:44
All 19 defendants, including the former president will start in five weeks
0:49
Trump's people and a lot of other defense people said, well, we're not asking for a
0:53
speedy trial. We're waiving our rights to a speedy trial. Judge Scott McAfee made the decision today
0:58
The cases will be severed. Trump will have considerably more time as will his other co-defendants
1:05
What the judge said was anybody who does not waive their right to a speedy trial will start
1:09
in five weeks. Trump has already waived his right to a free, speedy trial, so he's in the clear
1:17
He's ready to go. Now, let's take a look at the official report coming from CNN
1:23
All right. Breaking news out of Fulton County, Georgia. By the way, you're looking at live pictures from inside the courtroom now before Judge
1:31
McAfee in the election subversion case there. We just learned that the cases have been severed
1:39
There will be separate trials, one that begins in just five weeks for the two defendants
1:44
about to appear before the judge in this pretrial hearing. Again, you're seeing live pictures of that right now before our eyes
1:51
But Donald Trump and the rest of the co-defendants will be tried separately and later
1:58
Let's get to CNN's Zach Cohen for the details on what we are learning so far this morning, Zach
2:04
Yeah, John, the top line here really is that Donald Trump will not be starting his trial
2:09
in Georgia in five weeks alongside two, at least two of his co-defendants, Sidney Powell
2:15
and Ken Chesbrough. Now, Trump and 16 others who have said that they don't want a speedy trial
2:19
You know, the judge made clear here that they can basically prolong this out a little
2:24
bit longer than the other two who did request a speedy trial. So this is really the first break in this sprawling conspiracy case in Georgia
2:32
The district attorney, Fannie Willis, has held the position since the beginning that she wanted to try all 19 of these co-defendants, including Trump, together
2:40
The judge today making clear, though, that that won't be happening. Now we still have two groups of co-defendants in this case
2:46
So it'll be interesting to see if there are additional breaks going forward. Now, this order also, though, does get the process moving for Trump and the 16 who will
2:54
not have to go to trial starting in October. So it's really sort of the initiation of the legal process as far as Trump and the 16 go
3:01
in Georgia, but also making clear they will not have to stand trial alongside Sidney Powell
3:06
and Ken Chesbrough. And there you have it. Great news for President Trump
3:11
Horrible news for Fannie Willis. This is a blockbuster. It's a game changer
3:15
It is a shakeup of this entire trial, and it's a great day to be former President Donald Trump
3:22
So congratulations to him. I want your comments on this story. Please let me know what you think of this decision
3:28
