The Georgia prosecutor investigating potential efforts by Donald Trump and others to influence last year s general election has a message for people who are eager to see whether the former president will be charged: Be patient. I m in no rush, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis said this week in an interview with The Associated Press. I think people think that I feel this immense pressure. I don t.

But she said this week that she s not sure where the investigation will go or how long it will take.
