One year after the Democrat announced she was probing the actions of Trump and his allies here, prosecutors are turning their attention to a newly approved special purpose grand jury that can authorize subpoenas to compel testimony from more reticent witnesses.

“We realize that we’re coming to a place that there are enough people that will require a subpoena for us to speak to or for us to be able to get information,” Willis told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution on Thursday in an exclusive interview.

The comments are some of Willis’ most extensive about the criminal probe since a group of Fulton County judges greenlit her request for a special grand jury, unlocking a rarely used prosecutorial tool that her team can use for up to a year.
