FBI agent behind Fulton County ballot seizure warrant does not have to testify

A federal judge ruled that the FBI agent who obtained the search warrant for the seizure of 2020 election ballots in Fulton County will not have to testify at Friday's hearing in the case. The decision shields the agent from questioning about how the warrant was secured and what information was presented to justify the ballot seizure, which became a focal point in the Georgia election dispute. The ruling allows the case to proceed without the agent's direct examination, potentially limiting the opportunity for legal challenges to the warrant's validity. The Fulton County ballot seizure was part of the Justice Department's investigation into efforts to overturn the 2020 election results in Georgia.
