The Fulton County DA will decide on charges in her probe of 2020 election interference this summer, in an announcement that she said "may provoke a significant reaction."

The Fulton County, Georgia, district attorney who has been probing possible criminal interference in the 2020 election will announce her charging decisions "in the near future," the DA alerted law enforcement in a letter Monday.

The correspondence from District Attorney Fani Willis served as notice "to ensure that our law enforcement community is ready to protect the public," the letter said, while noting the announcement "may provoke a significant reaction."
