Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis cited that plan during a hearing in Atlanta, where she urged the judge to keep sealed for now a final special grand jury report that was assembled to gather evidence and hear testimony for that investigation.

A consortium of media outlets has asked Judge Robert McBurney to make the report public, as the grand jury has recommended.
