DA Fani Willis Clashes with Defense Lawyers in Trump Case Hearing

2024-02-16 845

Fulton County DA Fani Willis testified under oath about her relationship with prosecutor Nathan Wade at a hearing on a motion to disqualify her from the Trump case. Willis was combative with defense lawyers, accusing them of lying and arguing with the judge at times. Testimony conflicted on when the Willis-Wade relationship began, with a friend saying it was in late 2019 before Wade joined the Trump team. Willis and Wade said they split expenses on trips, but there is no paper trail as Willis claims she reimbursed Wade in cash.
