Actually, that is likely a true statement.

It was acknowledged in an article yesterday by the Washington Free Beacon.

Fani Willis Axed Employee Who Blew Whistle on Misuse of Federal Funds

Excerpt:

Timpson, who joined the Fulton County District Attorney's Office as Director of Gang Prevention and Intervention in 2018, was hopeful that Willis would take the office in a new direction. In December 2020, Willis named Timpson to her 2021 Executive Leadership Team, a select group of employees tasked with playing "a critical role of changing and rebranding the culture in [the district attorney's] office."

Timpson first got the sense that something was awry shortly after Willis assigned Cuffee to serve as Timpson's direct manager. By March 2021, Timpson said, Cuffee planned to use part of a $488,000 federal grant—earmarked for the creation of a Center of Youth Empowerment and Gang Prevention—to pay for "swag," computers, and travel. Instead of heeding Timpson's warnings that his plan was illegal, Cuffee claimed the purchases were part of Willis's "vision." And in June 2021, Cuffee removed Timpson from the gang prevention program.

Timpson joined the DA's office in 2018. Willis was elected in November 2020 and assumed office on January 1, 2021.
