The Fulton County, Georgia District Attorney Fani [the 'a is pronounced like an 'o'] may be in up to her neck in you know what. A new witness might testify that Willis warned Terrence Bradley, the friend and divorce lawyer of Nathan Wade and Willis' paramour, to keep his mouth shut at her hearing, according to a new court filing.
“They are coming after us. You don’t need to talk to them about anything about us,” Willis is alleged to have warned Bradley in a September 2023 phone call.
The call was overheard by Cobb County, Georgia, prosecutor Cindi Lee Yeager, according to court papers filed Monday by Trump co-defendant David Schafer. If Yeager is allowed to testify at this point in the hearing, Fani Willis and Nathan Wade could make hula skirts out of their butts, because that part of their anatomy will be, as they say, grass. [Only old people and ex-military will get that reference.]
Willis is currently fighting to remain in her position in overseeing the election interference case which charged Donald Trump and 18 others in a RiCO filing.
She stands accused of carrying on a relationship with Wade, prior to her appointing him special prosecutor, but hiding it from the court, presenting a conflict of interest and possible perjury for lying in court.
Willis and Wade have said under oath they were only romantic between 2022 and 2023, long after the case started. But there is very strong evidence that this is a lie as there are texts, phone records showing Wade in close proximity to Willis' condo at night then leaving in the wee hours of the morning. It's possible they were discussing law, but just not with their clothing on.
At a hearing over whether to disqualify Willis last week Bradley said on the stand that he had no “knowledge” of when the two prosecutors started dating, but even he had evidence against him showing that he knew.
But the filing says Yeager would swear under oath that the claim was at odds with what Bradley told Yeager in person — that the romance began in 2019, during Willis’s DA campaign.

Bradley also texted a lawyer for another Trump co-defendant the pair were “absolutely” dating before Willis hired Wade to manage the Trump prosecution in November 2021 — and then muttered, “Oh, dang” when the evidence was shown to him on the stand.

Yeager is willing to testify Bradley told her Wade “had definitively begun a romantic relationship with Ms. Willis during the time that Ms. Willis was running for District Attorney in 2019 through 2020,” Monday’s filing says.
So heads should roll but not Trump's nor those of his co-defendants.
After watching Bradley’s testimony, Yeager “became concerned as a result of the fact that what Mr. Bradley testified to on the witness stand was directly contrary to what Mr. Bradley had told Ms. Yeager in person,” Monday’s filing says.
Judge Scott McAfee has said he hopes to rule on whether Willis can stay on the case in the next two weeks, but we don't know if he'll re-open the can-of-worms hearing for additional evidence.

If he rules to keep Willis and/or Wade on the Trump case, the law has not been served.
