Two Trump lawyers charged with 10 additional felonies in connection with 2020 fake elector case

The Wisconsin Department of Justice has filed 10 additional felony charges against two lawyers and an aide to Donald Trump for alleged involvement in a plan to submit paperwork falsely claiming that Trump, who a president, won the state in the 2020 election.

Trump is now the GOP president elect, after having lost reelection four years ago.

Jim Troupis was an attorney for Trump in Wisconsin during the 2020 election, and Kenneth Chesebro was a lawyer who was advising the campaign at the time.

Mike Roman, who served as Trump’s director of Election Day operations in 2020, was also hit with additional charges, including allegedly using forgery in an attempt to defraud the 10 Republican electors who voted for Trump that year, according to the Associated Press.
