Wisconsin Charges Three Trump Allies with 10 New Felonies in 2020 Fake Electors Scheme

The charges against two attorneys and a former aide allege forgery and fraud in efforts to overturn Joe Biden's 2020 election victory in Wisconsin.

Kenneth Chesebro, Jim Troupis, and Mike Roman now face 11 felony charges each, including forgery and conspiracy, for their roles in the fake electors scheme.
The defendants are accused of creating and submitting false documents claiming Donald Trump won Wisconsin's 10 Electoral College votes in 2020.
Most of the Republican electors involved stated they were misled into believing their actions were legal and only meant to preserve legal options in case of a court ruling.
Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul filed the additional charges in Dane County Circuit Court, with each charge carrying a maximum penalty of six years in prison and a $10,000 fine.
Similar charges have been brought in other states, including Georgia and Arizona, where Chesebro and Roman also face legal action for their involvement in related schemes.
