A new witness has come forward with information that could help put the potential disqualification of Fani Willis over the top.
According to the New York Times, Cobb County prosecutor Cindi Lee Yeager overheard Fani Willis telling Terrance Bradley not to say anything about their affair.
Terrance Bradley is Nathan Wade’s divorce lawyer.
Yeager will also swear under oath that Bradley told her that the romance began in 2019 during Willis’s District Attorney campaign.
This was all filed with the court today.
Here’s more from the New York Post:
A new witness could testify Fani Willis warned lover Nathan Wade’s former business partner to stay quiet about their affair, an explosive new court filing claims.
“They are coming after us. You don’t need to talk to them about anything about us,” Willis is alleged to have warned Terrence Bradley in a September 2023 phone call.
The call was overheard by Cobb County, Georgia, prosecutor Cindi Lee Yeager, according to court papers filed Monday by Trump co-defendant David Schafer.
Willis, the Fulton County District Attorney, is currently battling to stay in her post overseeing the election interference case which charged Donald Trump and 18 others.
She stands accused of carrying on a relationship with Wade, who she appointed special prosecutor, but hiding it from the court, presenting a conflict of interest.
Willis and Wade have said under oath they were only romantic between 2022 and 2023, long after the case started.
At a hearing over whether to disqualify Willis last week Bradley claimed on the stand he had no “knowledge” of when the two prosecutors started dating.
But the filing says Yeager would swear under oath that was at odds with what he told Yeager in person — that the romance began in 2019 during Willis’s DA campaign.
Bradley also texted a lawyer for another Trump co-defendant the pair were “absolutely” dating before Willis hired Wade to manage the Trump prosecution in November 2021 — and then muttered, “Oh, dang” when confronted with that evidence on the stand.
Yeager is willing to testify Bradley told her Wade “had definitively begun a romantic relationship with Ms. Willis during the time that Ms. Willis was running for District Attorney in 2019 through 2020,” Monday’s filing says.
I think it’s more than clear that Willis is absolutely corrupt and she shouldn’t just be booted off this case, but out of office entirely.
