Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis suffered another brutal day in court.
All hell broke loose.
And that’s because Donald Trump just drove the final nail in Fani Willis’ coffin.
Lawyers delivered their closing arguments in the hearing over disqualifying Fani Willis from the 2020 election case in Georgia over Willis’ conflict of interest.
Willis hired her lover Nathan Wade as special prosecutor, and the defendants argued it was a conflict of interest as having Wade on the case provided a financial benefit to Willis.
Defense lawyers argued that Wade billed Fulton County for $654,000 and that Willis and Wade stretched the case out through an unusually long and strangely structured grand jury investigation to treat this probe like their personal piggy bank.
Credit card records also showed Wade purchased airline and cruise ship tickets for himself and Willis to go on vacation.
Willis claimed she used untraceable cash she kept hidden in her house to pay Wade back but couldn’t offer any proof she actually did so.
In his closing arguments Trump attorney Steve Sadow told Judge Scott McAfee that even an “appearance of impropriety” is “enough” to boot Willis off the case.
The evidence that Willis and Wade perjured themselves when they testified that their affair didn’t begin until 2022 and that Wade never visited Willis’ condo in 2021 is damning.
Cellphone data records from Wade showed his phone pinging a cell tower in Willis’ neighborhood on multiple occasions.
The visits were at night and Wade’s phone remained in the area until the morning.
Defense lawyers presented evidence that “on September 11, 2021, Mr. Wade’s phone left the Doraville area and arrived within the geofence located on the Dogwood address at 10:45 P.M. The phone remained there until September 12 at 3:28 A.M. at which time the phone traveled directly to towers located in East Cobb…”
“November 29, 2021, Mr. Wade’s phone was pinging on the East Cobb towers near his residence and, following a call from Ms. Willis at 11:32 P.M., while the call continued, his phone left the East Cobb area just after midnight and arrived within the geofence located on the Dogwood address at 12:43 A.M on November 30, 2021. The phone remained there until 4:55 A.M.,” a filing by the defense also outlined.
Kicking Willis off this case likely means it goes away for good.
Disqualifying Willis removes her entire office, and the state would have to pick a new prosecutor.
That process could take years.
A judge disqualified Willis from prosecuting Georgia Lt. Governor Burt Jones in the so-called “fake electors” plot in July 2022 because Willis attended a fundraiser for Jones’ opponent.
Nearly 20 months later the state still hasn’t assigned the case to a new prosecutor.
If Judge McAfee removes Willis from this case the state of Georgia will likely use it as an excuse to make this toxic and politically tainted case quietly go away.
