New Evidence Casts Doubt on Witness Testimony in Fani Willis Disqualification Case

A new court filing has revealed that a key witness in the case seeking to disqualify Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis and her office from prosecuting the Trump election interference case may have lied under oath.

The witness, Terrence Bradley, is the former law partner of Nathan Wade, the special prosecutor who is bringing the charges against Trump and his allies. Bradley had testified that he did not know when Willis and Wade started their romantic relationship, which is alleged to be a conflict of interest and a misuse of county funds.

However, the new filing, submitted by Cindi Lee Yeager, the co-chief deputy district attorney for Cobb County and a co-defendant in the Trump case, claims that Bradley had told her in person that Willis and Wade began dating in 2019 or around that time.

Yeager also claims that Bradley received a phone call from Willis in September 2023, in which she warned him not to talk to anyone about their relationship, in response to an article that exposed how much money Wade and his law partners had been paid in the case.

Yeager’s filing is part of a second hearing that is scheduled for today, in which she will testify about her knowledge of Fani Willis and Nathan Wade’s relationship. Her testimony could contradict Bradley’s previous statements and cast doubt on his credibility and motives.

Her testimony could also provide more evidence to support the disqualification motion, which was filed by Michael Roman, one of the defendants in the Trump case.

Fani Willis and Nathan Wade have denied any wrongdoing and have argued that their relationship is irrelevant and does not affect their professional duties.

The D.A.’s lawyer, Cinque Axom, has also argued that Willis should not be deposed by Wade’s estranged wife, Joycelyn, who is seeking to access information about their relationship as part of their divorce case. Axom has said that Willis’ privacy and autonomy should be respected and that the divorce case has nothing to do with her.

The case against Fani Willis and her office is one of the most high-profile and controversial cases in Georgia, as it involves allegations of election fraud and interference by former president Donald Trump and his associates in the 2020 presidential election.

Willis had tried to have the former president prosecuted based on a recorded phone call in which Trump pressured Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to “find” enough votes to overturn his loss to Joe Biden. It is also based on other evidence of attempts to influence and intimidate election officials and workers in the state.
