Fani Willis Grapples with Interference and Allegations in Trump Prosecution
Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis denies allegations of an improper relationship with her deputy, Nathan Wade, and accuses his estranged wife of interfering with their prosecution of Donald Trump. The estranged wife has subpoenaed Willis for a pretrial deposition in the divorce case, alleging that she conspired to use the civil discovery process to harass and oppress Willis. Allegations of a relationship between Willis and Wade have been raised by a lawyer for one of Trump's co-defendants, but both Willis and Wade have not directly addressed the claims. A hearing has been scheduled to look into these claims, and Willis has defended her decisions, arguing that critics are playing the race card.
