Judge Scott McAfee allowed District Attorney Fani Willis to remain on the case involving former President Donald Trump if Nathan Wade resigned, which he did.
Washington — The Georgia Court of Appeals on Wednesday agreed to review a decision by a Fulton County Superior Court judge who declined to disqualify District Attorney Fani Willis and her office from the 2020 election case against former President Donald Trump because of a personal relationship Willis had with a prosecutor.
The case was derailed after one of those co-defendants, Michael Roman, accused Willis and Wade in January of having an improper romantic relationship that began before Wade was hired to work on the election case in November 2021. Roman, a longtime GOP operative, claimed that Willis financially benefited from the relationship, since Wade allegedly paid for trips, hotel rooms and travel expenses using money he received through his work as a special prosecutor.
