Fani Willis Paid Nathan Wade From Confiscated Property Fund
Newsweek ^ | Mar 06, 2024 at 11:04 AM EST | By Sean O'Driscoll

Atlanta District Attorney Fani Willis paid the chief prosecutor in Donald Trump's election fraud trial out of her seized property fund for the first three months he was hired, disclosed work contracts show.

Willis and Wade testified in February that they were previously in a relationship but insist that relationship began after Willis hired him to oversee the prosecution of Donald Trump and his co-accused, who were indicted for allegedly trying to overthrow the Georgia result of the 2020 presidential election.

The pair denied in their testimony that they had tried to cover up their relationship until Wade was hired to prosecute the Trump case.

Willis and Wade did not sign a contract until more than four months into Nathan Wade's role as chief prosecutor in the Donald Trump election fraud case in Georgia.

Wade earned an average of $25,149 a month for his first 26 months on the case despite never having prosecuted a felony, a Newsweek review of his invoices has found.

They have been getting away with so much for so long they are shocked when they get caught.

I would bet that half of that that 650K went right back to Fani. This runs way deeper than a few vacations. Someone needs to do a deep dive into Fani and Wade’s bank records.

Fanny let loose a whirlwind when she waved files in the air and called the Merchants liars.

I’m guessing they could back up and unload a dump truck of material on the entire prosecutor office’s dirty bidness.

Fanny let loose a whirlwind when she waved files in the air and called the Merchants liars.

Actually, if I understood what Ashleigh Merchant said today in front of the GA Senate Committee, Fani's rant in which she called opposing counsel liars was more proof, before the court even, that she is not impartial when it comes to this case.

She demonstrated (during her rant) IN THE COURTROOM IN FRONT OF THE JUDGE that she is prejudiced against the defendants and even prejudiced against defense counsel.

At the very least, Fani has shown that she is guilty of prosecutorial misconduct by:

Fanny is in deep doo doo.

She had the entire staff in her department to choose from...with more experience than Wade.

Nathan Wade: I wish I had better eyesight when I met Fanny. I wouldn't have stigmatized myself into what I got!

"stigmatized myself"

Oh. Man.

Merchant just set it on fire. Prepared, articulate, knew the facts and the law. Absolutely devastating.

Mike Roman definitely hired the right lawyer. Do you think that Willis is regretting her decision to indict him?

I would guess so. I listened to Ashleigh's testimony today. Her client Roman wasn't even a target of the special grand jury deliberations..
