Fulton County DA Fani Willis Faces New Federal Funds Misuse Probe

Senators Grassley and Johnson demand accountability over alleged misuse of grants intended for youth programs and sexual assault kit initiatives.

  • Willis is accused of diverting nearly $500,000 meant for youth gang prevention to unrelated purchases.
  • The Fulton County Center of Youth Empowerment and Gang Prevention remains unopened despite significant funding.
  • Senators also question the use of $2 million from a Sexual Assault Kit Initiative, with nearly half spent on travel.
  • Former staffer Amanda Timpson's whistleblower claims have intensified scrutiny on Willis' office.
  • This is the second congressional investigation into Willis, who is also leading a high-profile case against Donald Trump.
