Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis hired her secret lover to serve as special prosecutor in the Georgia racketeering case against Donald Trump and 18 other defendants, according to a Monday filing on behalf of Mike Roman, a defendant who led election day operations for the 2020 Trump campaign:
“[T]he district attorney and the special prosecutor have been engaged in an improper, clandestine personal relationship during the pendency of this case, which has resulted in the special prosecutor, and, in turn, the district attorney, profiting significantly from this prosecution at the expense of the taxpayers.”
The prosecutor is Nathan Wade, a private attorney in the midst of a divorce who “has little to no experience trying felony cases, much less complex RICO actions,” according to the 127-page filing which seeks to have the charges against Roman dropped and both Willis and Wade disqualified from further participation in the case.
According to the complaint, Wade has raked in at least $653,000 and upwards of $1 million for handling the high-profile case. By virtue of their relationship, that pile of taxpayer money benefits Willis, as they’ve traveled together to Florida, the Caribbean and Napa Valley, California, adding that Wade has also bought tickets for the pair to travel on Norwegian and Royal Caribbean cruise ships.
In addition to his $250 hourly rate, Wade has also billed Fulton County for thousands of dollars in air travel and hotel stays, according to invoices attached to the filing. He categorized them as interview and research trips.
The Trump filing also alleges that Willis contracted with Wade contract without proper approval, as such a move requires a vote by the Fulton County Board of Commissioners. Roman’s lawyer, Ashleigh Merchant tells the Wall Street Journal her search of board meeting minutes found no indication his appointment was ever discussed, much less voted upon.
The timing of the transaction was rich: Wade filed for divorce the very day after his first contract with Willis began. The divorce is still pending, and Wade managed to have the proceedings sealed — for now. Merchant is asking for them to be unsealed.
Monday’s filing sums up the shadiness of the dealings nicely:
On the day before Wade filed for divorce, [Willis] entered into an agreement to pay Wade far above what any other prosecutor in her office was being paid, and she hid this agreement from Fulton County, despite Wade being the single biggest expenditure in her office for professional service contractors for both 2022 and 2023.
…
Wade is being paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to prosecute this case on her behalf. In turn, Wade is taking Willis on, and paying for vacations across the world with money he is being paid by the Fulton County taxpayers and authorized solely by Willis.
“It’s a bad look and it’s potentially criminal—again, assuming everything is true,” former Georgia prosecutor Chris Timmons tells the Journal. However, while Willis’s procurement of Wade’s services may have been illegal, Timmons doubts it would affect the indictment.
Willis has yet to comment on the accusations, and a spokesman says a response will come “via a filing with the court.” The filing contains plenty of documentation about Wade’s hiring and billings, but no evidence of the romantic relationship, beyond citing “sources close” to the couple.
Four defendants have pleaded guilty in the Fulton County case that alleges a conspiracy to interfere with the 2020 presidential election. Roman faces seven charges, including conspiracy to commit forgery, conspiracy to file false documents and racketeering.
And just when you thought it all couldn’t get any shadier, there’s also this gem in the heap of exhibits attached to the filing…
I hope the soon to be ex gets a nice big fat chunk of that windfall.
Why do these things with Democrats always end up the same? ALWAYS corruption involved.
The case needs to be dismissed with prejudice ASAP. .
The WH has been colluding with all of the cases against President Trump.
The law fare the democrats are employing to defeat President Trump is failing. This was their only hope at defeating President Trump because bidens record could not defeat the office of dog catcher anywhere of the US of A.
I suspect they realize this as they have now resorted to trotting Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden with more of his Nazi hate speeches to try and mobilize the stupid among us to violence.
“Homewrecker” Fani Willis Caught Paying Lover $700k, Mike Davis Explains
NEW: The Fulton County prosecutor, who District Attorney Fani Willis allegedly had an “improper” romantic relationship with, met with the Biden White House twice last year as he worked to investigate former President Trump’s alleged election interference, according to court documents.

Remember this lunatic?

BTW, the dude must really be hard up to be hitting that fat ass pig..
A man who can draw 50,000 people into a cornfield does not legitimately lose an election to a bumbling buffoon who can’t even draw 50 people in a major city.
It cannot happen.
It did not happen.
If you believe it happened, you are a numbskull with a TV set and nothing else in between your ears(greg).
And – If you truly got more votes than any other candidate in the history of this nation, you wouldn’t need to harass, indict, arrest or try to remove your opponent from ballots.
This is the Willie Brown/Kamala soap opera with roles reversed. Wade is laying the radiator hose to Fanni (in the fanny?) because a) he wants to supercharge his career and b) Fanni is desperate to get laid. No doubt, in addition to being a disgusting pig, she’s also an insufferable bitch.
Mattress-backed homewrecking thief of public funds, aka democrat.
And Democrats love them. That’s their favorite.
Uh-oh
WSJ breaking. Fani Willis subpoenaed to testify in Nathan Wade’s divorce hearing.
The plot thickens. Fani served subpoena by Nathan Wade’s wife.
Fani to give deposition under oath on January 23.
Wearing a trendy cobalt suit, he walked from the luxury car towards the office and declined to comment on the alleged affair.
Nathan Wade was spotted outside his law office on the outskirts of Atlanta, Georgia, on Thursday afternoon.

Wade drove a silver Audi A8 L 4.2 Quattro — valued at more than $100,000 brand new — to his workplace.
Fani Willis has not yet commented on the allegations against her.
Joycelyn Wade has been married to Nathan Wade for 26 years but the couple is now estranged and in the process of divorcing
A very attractive woman. Wade has definitely downgraded shacking up with fat ass willis.
Wow, what a downgrade. Wade traded cash flow for beauty.
Fanni looks to be twice the woman his wife was, baby got back about 1.5 yards of it.

There is cause to seek an immediate dismissal of this case against all defendants, with prejudice.
So, it’s not enough they have to coordinate their lawfare with the White House, they have to make the taxpayer pay for it. Why don’t leftists get tired of being played for fools?
Yes, yes, yes. And likewise, greg is outraged at Governor Abbott using taxpayers dollars to relocate illegal alien invaders to sanctuary cities. While at the same time, the illegitimate biden regime uses taxpayers dollars to assist illegal entry into our country and then uses taxpayers dollars to send them to places unknown throughout the country. Seems illogical to oppose one on the one hand but to not have issue on the other hand.
This entire fiasco is a train wreck. All proceedings currently filed against President Trump and the 18 others should immediately be put on hold until this conspiracy is resolved.
Also the media, even the state and local media, has been complicit in Fani’s affair.
This wronged ex-wife has had NO interviews on TV or in print.
Is this because she doesn’t want to share?
Or, more likely, is it because the media don’t print her thoughts.
Recall Warnock slapped his ex wife around and nobody cared.
Another racist dirtbag installed by the fraudulent Georgia political machine.
How about flashing a handgun at reporters? Anyone remember the McClusky’s?
