Ken Chesebro set to testify in front of new election interference grand juries: report
A Donald Trump co-defendant who recently pleaded guilty in his Georgia election interference case is slated to meet with Arizona and Nevada investigators conducting parallel probes, sources told the Washington Post Thursday.
Attorney Kenneth Chesebro has been approached by prosecutors investigating if the former president and his team broke state laws in the wake of the 2020 election, three anonymous sources told the Post.
One source said Chesebro is expected to testify in front of a Nevada grand jury and that he plans to travel to the state this week. Arizona's investigators plan to speak to Chesebro in the upcoming weeks, the other two sources told the Post.

“They want to know the roots of the fake-elector theory,” one of the sources reportedly said.
Chesebro pleaded guilty earlier this year to conspiring to file false documents in Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis’ Georgia case. Chesebro has agreed to testify.
Willis accused Trump, Chesebro and 17 others of conspiring to overturn Georgia’s presidential election by organizing a slate of fake electors to vote for the former President instead of current President Joe Biden.
Chesebro’s attorney in Nevada, Robert Langford, did not confirm the report but provided comment to the Post.
“My client, Kenneth Chesebro, will travel anywhere in the United States to tell the truth about what happened leading up to the events of Jan. 6, 2021,” Langford said.
