On Tuesday, Georgia’s Attorney General Chris Carr announced the indictment of 61 alleged “militant anarchists” under Georgia’s Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act. That indictment was handed down last week by the same Fulton County Grand Jury that indicted former President Donald Trump and 18 other co-defendants on RICO charges.

The charges stem from alleged radical actions taken by anti-police actors connected with the “Stop Cop City” movement that occurred between 2020 and 2022, according to Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr. As The Daily Wire previously reported, far-Left environmental protesters coalesced in response to the 2021 announcement of the Atlanta Public Safety Training Center — a first responder and police training facility that received millions in taxpayer funding and is being built on nearly 400 acres of the Weelaunee Forest. Since then, individuals connected to the “Stop Cop City” movement have been accused of participating in riots, vandalizing cop cars, and committing unruly actions as part of their opposition to the training facility.

According to Carr, these individuals have been conspiring to commit violence in the pursuit of anarchy since the summer of 2020, following the death of George Floyd. Yet, he said these alleged “anti-government anarchists in Atlanta recognized an opportunity to rally against law enforcement” and changed course following the 2021 announcement of the police training facility. Most of those charged in the indictment are from out of state.
