    Dear Sheriff Labat:

    My staff and | greatly appreciate the efforts you have made to increase security at the Fulton County
    Courthouse. While these efforts have addressed security needs related to several high-profile trials and
    investigations, as we have discussed, the need for vigilance will increase.

    In the near future, | will announce charging decisions resulting from the investigation my office has been
    conducting into possible criminal interference in the administration of Georgia’s 2020 General Election. |
    am providing this letter to bring to your attention the need for heightened security and preparedness in
    coming months due to this pending announcement.

    Open-source intelligence has indicated the announcement of decisions in this case may provoke a
    significant public reaction. We have seen in recent years that some may go outside of public expressions
    of opinion that are protected by the First Amendment to engage in acts of violence that will endanger the
    safety our community. As leaders, it is incumbent upon us to prepare.

    | will be announcing charging decisions resulting from this investigation during Fulton County Superior
    Court’s fourth term of court, which will begin on July 11, 2023, and conclude on September 1, 2023. Please
    accept this correspondence as notice to allow you sufficient time to prepare the Sheriff's Office and
    coordinate with local, state and federal agencies to ensure that our law enforcement community is ready
    to protect the public.

    As your strategic planning process begins, collaboration with my investigative leadership team is vital. My
    team will be in touch in coming days to set up appropriate conversations.

    My staff and | are grateful for the work of the Sheriff's Office in ensuring the safety of the public during
    this time. Thank you for your efforts, and we look forward to working with you.
