"Trump Lawyer Pushes for Fani Willis Disqualification in Georgia Case"

In the Georgia election interference case against former President Donald J. Trump, lawyers argued over whether prosecutor Fani T. Willis should be disqualified due to a romantic relationship with a subordinate, with the defense claiming that even the appearance of a conflict of interest should lead to her removal from the case. The defense's efforts were described as "desperate" by a prosecutor in Ms. Willis's office, while Mr. Trump's lawyer argued that the appearance of impropriety should be enough to disqualify her.
