The state court judge appointed to preside in the Georgia racketeering case against former President Donald Trump once worked for Fani T. Willis, the current Fulton County, Georgia, district attorney who obtained the indictment.

Was known during the hearing.
He was deferential to her, obviously afraid of her.
Should have recused.
Ya think?
Oh, give the poor guy a break already. This man has to run for re-election in Atlanta, home of, and totally controlled by the most disgruntled whiney racists black power players in the entire country. Fanny has been making all the rounds to all the black mega churches whipping up racial hatred, the likes of which are off the chart, and if this man benches Fanny he might as well just go ahead and resign, and move out of Georgia.
The fix was in from the get go.
Conflict of interest doesn’t apply to Demonicrat leftists.
Hmmm small town
I posted this timeline of their careers two days ago:
I guess it's a "black thing" in Fulton County to funnel public funds for one's personal benefit, and to run a hostile work environment where staffers are expected to sleep with the boss.
Comparing the work histories of both Judge Scott McAfee and Fani Willis, it looks to me like McAfee was the rising star and his stint under Willis was incidental.Consider:
- Willis graduated from Emory University School of Law in 1996. Her first job was as a solicitor prosecuting misdemeanors and city ordinance violations.
- McAfee graduated from the University of Georgia School of Law, cum laude, in 2013, interning for Georgia Supreme Court justice Keith R. Blackwell in his senior year. McAfee's first assignment was an assistant district attorney in the Barrow County, Georgia, Piedmont Judicial Circuit.
- Willis spent 16 years as a prosecutor in the Fulton County district attorney's office, eventually leading the complex trial division.
- In 2014-2015 (+18 years from graduation), Willis became an assistant district attorney, prosecuting 12 Atlanta Public School teachers for changing answers entered by students to inflate the scores of state administered standardized tests.
- McAfee joined the office of the district attorney in Fulton County, Georgia in 2015 (+2 years after graduating). Between 2015-2018, he worked on the early stages of criminal cases, and was promoted to working as a prosecutor in the complex trial division (under Fani Willis).
- In 2018 (+22), Willis went into private practice. She ran for a seat on the Fulton County Superior Court, and lost.
- In 2019 (+6), McAfee was appointed as an assistant United States Attorney for the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia.
- In 2019 (+23), Willis became Chief Municipal Judge for South Fulton, Georgia.
- In 2021 (+8), Georgia governor Brian Kemp appointed McAfee as the state inspector general.
- In 2020 (+24), Willis was elected district attorney for Fulton County.
- In December 2022 (+9), Gov. Kemp appointed McAfee to the Fulton County Superior Court.
It's pretty clear from comparing the timelines of their careers, that McAfee spent two years early in his career in the division headed by Willis. He was then fast-tracked into higher positions in the judiciary departments.
Willis looks like her career stalled after spending 22 years in the Fulton County District Attorney's office. She left to pursue private practice and lower court judgeships. Willis ran for DA against her former boss (and emasculated black man) Paul Howard, Jr. and won.
Now, here's the real kick-in-the-pants:
It seems like the apple doesn't fall far from the tree over at the Fulton County District Attorney's office.
- During the campaign, Howard was accused of violating public disclosure laws when he used his two nonprofits to funnel $195,000 of Atlanta city funds to his personal bank account without disclosing his role as CEO. Howard later admitted to the public disclosure violations and agreed to pay a $6,500 fine.
- Also during the campaign, Howard was accused of sexual harassment, abuse of power, and creating a hostile work environment by Cathy Carter, a paralegal and records supervisor who worked under Howard's tenure for 15 years. Carter claimed that Howard sexually harassed her and coerced her into engaging in intimate activities, including encounters within his office at the Fulton County Courthouse. Howard was found not guilty in December 2023.

In 2019, McAfee was appointed as an assistant United States Attorney for the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia. He worked in the criminal division where he investigated and prosecuted drug trafficking organizations, fraud, and illegal firearms possession. On April 1, 2021, Georgia governor Brian Kemp appointed McAfee as the state inspector general. WTF? went from assistant United States Attorney to state inspector general? That a strange career move.
Now is a Judge in the HOT Bed of Georgia politics (DEMs).
So McAfee, tell me where you will be in 5 years.... and how will you get there?
My BET is that Fani stays!
Maybe even donated to her campaign too
Now you know why she came in like a raging Toro, because she knew the judge would not shut her down. The fixes in folks she will be the POS that’s going to bring the case against Trump. Governor Kemp can stick it up his @$$! He could have easily slapped this &itch down! Backstabbing POS!!
If he had worked for Fani, at one point, that would not help Fani. She is a dirt bag and working for her as a hated white man must have been a nightmare.
Also, the Judge may play it straight and boot her out. You never know, maybe he wants to move up outside of Ga.
Being a Judge that follows the law is still a plus in some places in the country.
Wishful thinking
Thank you for posting this very informative material not just once but twice.
I had been wondering what role if any Willis played in securing McAfee’s current judgeship. If he was appointed by Kemp, support from Willis seems unlikely.
McAfee comes across as an intelligent, serious guy with integrity. The big conflict for him is whether he can stomach the maelstrom that dismissal of Willis and Wade would unleash.
In Atlanta you’d need a clothespin on your nose NOT to smell one. The Atlanta city government is run for, by and of black Democrats.
BILs best friend is an LA county prosecutor. Like 1000 other Prosecutors in that county
Working under Gascon doesn’t mean he supports him. In fact, he’s the Trumpiest guy I ever met
He’s been in that office for decades, just waiting to retire
So the judge actually got ahead while Fani gave head. Gotta love DEI.
Further proof that these trials and legal action against Trump are nothing more than vicious Democrat assaults. They’re making a mockery out of the judicial system.
The judiciary in the U.S. is being exposed as a bunch of politicians. First we had the refusal of courts to address the obvious election fraud in 2020, sanctioning lawyers for trying to show the evidence, etc. Now we have the retribution against Trump and his followers. Judicial reform is on the menu now. The judges are too powerful, and corrupt.
I agree completely. His short association with Fanny means nothing. He probably hates her. Just because he worked under on an organizational chart means nothing.
