New revelations have emerged in the legal battle surrounding Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis and Special Council Nathan Wade.

Willis and Wade have been fighting efforts to have them removed from the case of former President Donald Trump and 14 co-defendants on criminal racketeering charges. 

In the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations aka RICO case the charges are related to the alleged attempt to overturn 2020 electoral results in Georgia’s Presidential election.

Fani Willis and Nathan Wade 

Willis has been accused of a conflict of interest and improper hiring practices. And the two testified in hearings before Judge Scott McAfee, who is presiding over the case.

Willis was asked if Wade ever visited her home. She responded, "So let's be clear 'cause you lied in this...” waving around court documents. "It is a lie! It is a lie!"

Both Willis and Wade have claimed under oath that their relationship started in the spring of 2022. This is months after Willis hired Wade in November 2021.

 A recent court filing by Trump's attorneys has brought to light compelling evidence suggesting discrepancies in the timeline of a purported romantic relationship between Willis and special prosecutor Nathan Wade.

Willis is accused of hiring her boyfriend to prosecute Trump. And then financially benefiting from his lucrative contracts with her office. Within a six month period the pair took vacations to the Bahamas, Aruba and Napa Valley, Calif.

Timeline Discrepancies

According to court documents, Nathan Wade's cell phone was tracked to Fani Willis' residence on numerous occasions throughout 2021, well before the duo claimed to have entered into a romantic relationship. 

Charles Mittelstadt, an investigator hired by Trump's legal team, revealed that Wade's phone pinged near Willis' Hapeville, Georgia condo approximately 35 times between April 1, 2021, and November 30, 2021.

What's particularly striking is that many of these visits occurred before Wade was officially hired by Willis to serve as the special prosecutor in the Trump election fraud case.

This appears to contradict recent court testimony wherein Wade asserted he had only been to the condo around ten times prior to his appointment.

Mittelstadt's analysis of cell phone and geolocation data also uncovered two instances where Wade visited the condo in the middle of the night, both before and after signing his initial contract with Willis' office.

These findings raise serious questions about the accuracy of testimony provided by both individuals regarding the timeline and nature of their relationship.

Alleged Perjury

Georgia-based defense attorney Keith Johnson remarked that if the affidavit presented by Trump's legal team is accurate, it could potentially lead to perjury charges.

He emphasized the importance of scrutinizing contradictory testimony given under oath and evaluating the intent behind any potentially false statements.

The revelation of Wade and Willis' alleged pre-existing relationship has significant implications for the ongoing legal proceedings involving Trump and his co-defendants.

Trump's legal team has been aggressively pushing to disqualify Willis from the case, citing her alleged conflict of interest and improper hiring practices.

The defense's investigator, Mittelstadt, utilized geofencing techniques to establish Wade's proximity to Willis' residence, bolstering their argument for Willis' disqualification. 

Willis and Wade have continued to deny any impropriety, insisting that their romantic involvement did not begin until the spring of 2022.

As Judge Scott McAfee prepares to rule on the motion for Willis' disqualification, the latest revelations add yet another layer of complexity to an already contentious legal saga. 

The outcome of this case will not only impact the future of Trump and his associates but also raise broader questions about the integrity of the judicial process and the accountability of public officials.

Closing arguments are scheduled for March 1.
