Report: Fani Willis Secretly Colluded with January 6 Committee; Could Blow Up Case
Breitbart ^ | 01/11/2024 | JOEL B. POLLAK

Posted on 01/11/2024 10:50:31 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Fulton County, Georgia, District Attorney Fani Willis secretly colluded with the one-sided, Democrat-run January 6 Committee to obtain tips that would help her prosecute Donald Trump — and tried to keep it out of court, and public view, using a procedural trick.

The revelation could upend the prosecution of Trump and 18 co-defendants because the evidence was concealed to keep it away from discovery requirements that would allow defense lawyers to see what was shared, and the extent of the collaboration.

Politico reported Wednesday:

Committee staff quietly met with lawyers and agents working for Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis in mid-April 2022, just as she prepared to convene a special grand jury investigation. In the previously unreported meeting, the Jan. 6 committee aides let the district attorney’s team review — but not keep — a limited set of evidence they had gathered.

The committee aided Willis’ nascent probe even as it rebuffed the Justice Department’s requests for material in the separate federal criminal probe of Trump’s election subversion. At the time, one reason the committee was more inclined to cooperate with the Fulton County team than with the federal prosecutors was that federal prosecutors might have been required to disclose the evidence in ongoing criminal cases related to the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol.

Jan. 6 committee chairman Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.) had previously described “staff-level contacts” between his panel and Fulton County prosecutors. In early April 2022 — nearly two weeks before the panel’s staff met with Willis’ team — Thompson told reporters he wasn’t aware of how extensive those contacts were. And on Wednesday, Thompson told POLITICO that he did not know about the in-person visit that spring.

Here is Bennie Thompson (D) admitting they did not save everything:

“In that footnote, Thompson wrote, “Consistent with guidance from the Office of the Clerk and other authorities, the Select Committee did not archive temporary committee records that were not elevated by the Committee’s actions, such as use in hearings or official publications, or those that did not further its investigative activities. Accordingly, and contrary to your letter’s implication, the Select Committee was not obligated to archive all video recordings of transcribed interviews or depositions. Based on guidance from House authorities, the Select Committee determined that the written transcripts provided by nonpartisan, professional official reporters, which the witnesses and Select Committee staff had the opportunity to review for errata, were the official, permanent records of transcribed interviews and depositions for the purposes of rule VII.”

Newt Gingrich posted a recent piece supporting Cassidy Hutchinson’s previous lawyer Stefan Passantino’s lawsuit against USG over J6 committee smearing him. I can’t find Newt’s article, but this article lays some groundwork.

The destruction of committee data will likely come into play on this case.

I know Trump claimed evidence was destroyed but is there any proof of this other than a claim made on truth social?

Instead of throwing rocks at Trump, why don’t you look it up and find the 100’s of articles about this yourself.

And once again, as I have said many times before...

Ever notice how these trolls all show up at the same tome on specific threads?

And then like magic, they are gone?

Yeah.....not a coincidence with the troll farms.
