Mark Meadows asks for court order to avoid arrest in Georgia

Former president’s ex-chief of staff Mark Meadows has asked for an emergency court order that would prevent District Attorney Fani Willis from arresting him if he doesn’t surrender to the Fulton County jail by the Friday deadline. Meadows is one of the 19 co-defendants that were indicted, along with the former president. Trump is accused of being the head of a “criminal enterprise” that was part of a conspiracy to overturn the 2020 election. Former Assistant U.S. Attorney Elie Honig tells Anderson Cooper how this Georgia indictment could complicate things if Meadows is cooperating with special counsel Jack Smith’s election interference investigation.
