A Georgia judge is hearing closing arguments over removing Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis from the case against former President Donald Trump and others.
Atlanta — Arguments are underway Friday over an effort by former President Donald Trump and several of his co-defendants in the Georgia election interference case to disqualify Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis and her office over allegations that Willis engaged in a romantic relationship with special prosecutor Nathan Wade.
Both Steve Sadow, who is representing Trump, and Craig Gillen, another defense lawyer, accused Willis of engaging in misconduct when she delivered a speech at Big Bethel AME Church in January, shortly after the allegations about her relationship with Wade were made public. Though Willis did not mention Wade by name, she defended his qualifications and suggested that racism was behind the claims. Gillen and Sadow said the speech was designed to prejudice potential jurors against the defendants.
