Fani Willis Case Ensnared In Legal Arguments

February 17, 2024 5:11 am

ATLANTA (AP) — A witness has refused to answer most questions from defense attorneys trying to disqualify Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis from the Georgia election interference case against Donald Trump. The attorneys had expected Terrence Bradley to testify that Willis and special prosecutor Nathan Wade began dating before Wade was hired for the Trump case. But Bradley repeatedly refused to answer questions about Wade and Willis on Friday, citing attorney-client privilege. The attorneys for Trump and some other defendants in the election case argue that the relationship started before Willis hired Wade and that she benefited from his earnings for the work, creating a conflict of interest.
