DOJ Subpoenas Travel Records of Fulton County DA Fani Willis, NYT Reports

The records request follows her removal from the Georgia election case over a relationship with a deputy.

Overview

  • The federal grand jury subpoena seeks information on international travel Willis may have taken in the fall of 2024 around the election, according to The New York Times.
  • It remains unclear whether Willis is a subject of the inquiry or could face charges, and the scope of the probe has not been detailed.
  • The inquiry is being handled by U.S. Attorney Theodore S. Hertzberg’s office in the Northern District of Georgia, outlets reported.
  • Willis spokesman Jeff DiSantis said the office has no knowledge of any investigation, and the Justice Department declined comment.
  • The development was reported a day after the DOJ filed criminal charges against former FBI Director James Comey, as Willis continues to be noted for her 2023 racketeering case against President Donald Trump before her later disqualification.
