Key Points
- Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee ruled the Georgia election interference case against former President Donald Trump and his co-defendants can continue, but only if Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis or prosecutor Nathan Wade removes themselves.
- The ruling represents a middle ground following the revelation that Willis and Wade were engaged in a romantic relationship for more than a year.
- Willis and Wade admitted to the relationship only after it was first alleged in January court filings for defendant Michael Roman.
Agreed, them having a relationship shouldn’t even have been an issue. Maybe the court would spend a day to explain to the defense that the court will not deal with conspiracy theories, then on with the show. Giving this nonsense months of attention when none of it is relevant to the case (or defense), should have been enough to move this on almost immediately.
And why would the defense be the ones to bring it up?! If those two were a distraction to each other that’s a win for Trump. But you know they want anyone but her on the other side because she’s actually go at her job.
