Fani Willis is the district attorney of Fulton County, Georgia. It's not in debate that she has been fucking her handpicked Trump prosecutor for years. He said in a sworn affidavit that their relationship started in 2022. But a witness testified their relationship started three years earlier in 2019.
2020 election influence investigation
On February 10, 2021, Willis launched a criminal investigation into Donald Trump's attempts to influence Georgia election officials...
A February 2024 court filing in the case revealed that Willis was in a personal relationship with Nathan Wade – the lawyer whom Willis appointed in November 2021 to lead the prosecution – according to an affidavit by Wade. The filing was made in response to an allegation of a conflict of interest and improper romantic relationship from a defendant in the racketeering case, which Willis has denied. According to the filing, Willis and Wade began their relationship in 2022, after Wade's hiring.
This was contradicted by Robin Bryant-Yeartie, a former close friend and co-worker of Willis, who testified that Willis and Wade were in a relationship since 2019.
Why would it put the case in (legal) jeopardy? They'll just get a different prosecutor.
I'm no legal expert but if Willis is lying - it seems to me the case could be thrown out.
In a less serious situation - a talking head said If Willis refuses to step down but the judge removes her from the case - he chooses her replacement. In my opinion - that will throw the prosecution's case into chaos. I don't think the judge would choose somebody already involved in Willis's office due to the taint of impropriety. And a brand new person has to catch up on an enormous amount of material in this case which is one of the most important in history.
