密歇根州不会以虚假选举证书为由, 上诉驳回对16人提出的2020年选举指控。 Michigan won’t appeal dismissal of 2020 election charge against 16 over false electoral certificates.

密歇根州总检察长Dana Nessel宣布,她将不就驳回对16名被控在2020年签署虚假选举证书的个人的刑事指控提出上诉,以诬告Donald Trump赢得了国家,理由是犯罪意图证据不足,成本高,成功的可能性低。 Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel announced she will not appeal the dismissal of criminal charges against 16 individuals accused of signing false electoral certificates in 2020 to falsely claim Donald Trump won the state, citing insufficient evidence of criminal intent and the high cost and low likelihood of success. Gretchen Whitmer总督任命的Kristen Simmons法官未能履行将案件交付审判的责任。 Judge Kristen Simmons, appointed by Governor Gretchen Whitmer, ruled prosecutors failed to meet the burden to bind the case over for trial. Nessel说,她仍然认为这些行动是错误的,是特朗普领导的推翻Joe Biden胜利的更广泛努力的一部分,但结论是,当被指控的幕后策划者仍然逍遥法外时,追捕低层参与者是不公正的。 Nessel stated she still believes the actions were wrong and part of a broader effort led by Trump to overturn Joe Biden’s victory, but concluded it would be unjust to pursue lower-level participants while the alleged mastermind remains unpunished. 她公布了一份详细报告,以保存事实记录。 She released a detailed report to preserve the factual record. 尽管赦免并不适用于国家指控, 但特朗普赦免了许多参与2020年选举挑战的案件。 The decision ends a high-profile case amid similar dismissals in other states, with Trump pardoning many involved in the 2020 election challenges, though the pardon does not apply to state charges.
