Trump Team Seizes on Allegations Against Prosecutor in Election Interference Case
Fani Willis, the District Attorney prosecuting the case against Trump, faces allegations of an improper relationship with special prosecutor Nathan Wade, potentially jeopardizing the case.
- Allegations have surfaced that Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis is engaged in an 'improper relationship' with special prosecutor Nathan Wade, who is working on the case against former President Donald Trump and his associates.
- Willis is accused of benefiting personally and illegally from this arrangement, with claims that she and Wade have taken luxurious vacations together, funded by Wade's substantial legal fees.
- Trump's team is reportedly considering using these allegations to attempt to shut down the criminal case against him, which alleges that he and 17 others violated Georgia's racketeering statute while trying to overturn the 2020 election results.
- Republican lawmakers are also considering expanding their investigation into Willis to include her alleged relationship and other matters related to the special prosecutor assigned to the election interference case.
- Willis has been subpoenaed to testify in Wade's pending divorce case, adding further complexity to the situation.
