富尔顿县地方检察官办公室已获得亲特朗普律师林·伍德作为其佐治亚州的证人选举干预案根据周三的一份法庭文件，针对前总统唐纳德·特朗普和其他18人。
然而，伍德周三晚上在社交媒体帖子中表示，尽管被传唤为检方证人，但他并没有“背叛”前总统。
“我不知道会以任何方式被用来反对特朗普总统的真相...我117%支持特朗普总统!!!"他在电报频道的一篇文章中写道。
根据周三的法庭文件，该州的其他证人包括佐治亚州国务卿布拉德·拉芬斯佩格、前佐治亚州上尉州长杰夫·邓肯(Geoff Duncan)、州选举委员会成员以及佐治亚州议会成员。
特朗普和其他18人被指控全面的敲诈勒索起诉涉嫌试图推翻佐治亚州2020年总统选举的结果。这位前总统表示，他的行为并不违法，调查是出于政治动机。
周三的文件还试图向负责此案的法官提出担忧，即检察官所说的与此案中多名辩护律师的“潜在利益冲突”。
地方检察官办公室表示，它确定了六名律师，他们代表各种被告，但也曾参与案件或相关事宜，包括以前代表州证人，他们说这种情况可能会导致这些证人受到他们以前律师的盘问。

“州政府已经努力工作，以确定任何潜在的利益冲突，这些冲突涉及目前在本案中代表被告的律师，以及以前在特别目的大陪审团和其他选举前程序中代表重要证人或当事人的律师，”该文件称。
他们提到的一名律师是被告肯尼斯·切塞博罗的律师斯科特·格鲁曼，他们说早些时候，在特别目的大陪审团的调查中，他代表了布拉德·拉芬斯佩格和他的妻子帕特里夏——他们两人现在都是该州的证人，文件说。
“如果格鲁布曼继续担任本案的记录律师，他的前客户将接受他的交叉询问，”文件称。
Grubman在他自己的文件中说，他确实“短暂地”代表了两人，但反驳了DA的描述，即这将是一场冲突，他说他已经获得了Cheseboro，Raffensperger和他妻子的豁免。
“格鲁曼先生知道他的道德和职业义务，并不认为他在这件事上有冲突，”格鲁曼的文件中说。
关于豁免，格鲁曼说，他“会通知地区检察官办公室，如果他们在提交通知前达成一致意见的话。该州没有延续这种典型的职业礼遇。”
Pro-Trump attorney Lin Wood to be prosecution witness in Georgia election case, DA says
The Fulton County district attorney's office has secured pro-Trump attorney Lin Wood as a witness in its Georgiaelection interference caseagainst former President Donald Trump and 18 others, according to a court filing Wednesday.
Wood, however, said in social media posts Wednesday night that he has not "flipped" on the former president despite being subpoenaed as a prosecution witness.
"I have NO knowledge of TRUTH that can be used in any way against President Trump ... I support President Trump 117%!!!" he wrote in a post on his Telegram channel.
According to Wednesday's court filing, other witnesses for the state include Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, former Georgia Lieutenant Governor Geoff Duncan, members of the State Election Board, and members of the Georgia General Assembly.
Trump and 18 others were charged in asweeping racketeering indictmentfor alleged efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election in the state of Georgia. The former president says his actions were not illegal and that the investigation is politically motivated.
Wednesday's filing also sought to raise concerns to the judge overseeing the case about what prosecutors called "potential conflicts of interest" with a number of the defense attorneys in the case.
The DA's office said it identified six attorneys who are representing various defendants but have also had previous involvement in the case or related matters, including by previously representing witnesses for the state -- a situation they say could result in those witnesses being subject to cross examination by their former attorneys.
"The state has worked diligently to identify any potential conflicts of interest concerning attorneys who currently represent Defendants in this case and who previously represented material witnesses or parties before the special purpose grand jury and other prost-election proceedings," the filing states.
One attorney they note is defendant Kenneth Cheseboro's lawyer, Scott Grubman, who they say earlier, during the investigation by the special purpose grand jury, represented Brad Raffensperger and his wife Patricia -- both of whom are now witnesses for the state, the filing says.
"Mr. Grubman's former clients would be subject to cross-examination by him were he to remain counsel of record in this case," the filing states.
Grubman, in his own filing, said he did "briefly" represent the duo, but pushed back on the DA's characterization that it would be a conflict, saying that he has waivers from Cheseboro, Raffensperger, and his wife.
"Mr. Grubman is aware of his ethical and professional obligations and does not believe he has a conflict in this matter," Grubman's filing stated.
Regarding the waivers, Grubman said he "would have informed the District Attorney's office of such informed consent had they reached out before filing their notice. The state did not extend that typical professional courtesy."
