Fulton County DA Fani Willis confirmed in a court filing on Friday that she has a “personal relationship” with Trump prosecutor Nathan Wade — but she doesn’t think the case should be thrown out.
“In 2022, District Attorney Willis and I developed a personal relationship in addition to our professional association and friendship,” Wade wrote in an affidavit released by Willis’ office in court papers they filed Friday.
But the filing said there was no “personal relationship” at the time Wade was hired.
“Although District Attorney Willis and Special Prosecutor Wade have been professional associates and friends since 2019, there was no personal relationship between them in November 2021 at the time of Special Prosecutor Wade’s appointment,” the court papers said.
