Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis started her romantic relationship with her prosecutor 'lover' Nathan Wade three years earlier than they stated, her college friend claimed in dramatic testimony
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis began her romantic relationship with her prosecutor 'lover' Nathan Wade in late 2019, three years earlier than they claimed in a court filing, her college friend told a court in bombshell testimony Friday.

It would mean the relationship began before Wade was hired in the Georgia election interference case Willis is pursuing against Donald Trump – and could provide a reason for a judge to disqualify them from the case.

Robin Yeartie's testimony directly contradicts information provided by Willis and Wade that the relationship did not begin until after Wade was hired in November 2021.

Yeartie told the court there was 'no doubt' Willis and Wade were in a romantic relationship before the hiring, and confirmed that she was 'certain' about it.

Wade in his own blockbuster testimony said the relationship began in 2022, and was forced to answer a series of questions about statements from his divorce filing as well as his travel with Willis.

The Fulton County prosecution of Donald Trump and alleged accomplices took on elements of dramatic soap opera Thursday as the former friend of Willis testified in a court hearing about the DA's 'romantic' relationship with a special prosecutor on her team. Yeartie testified that the DA leading the Trump prosecution personally informed her of her romantic relationship with Wade. The two had been friends since college in the 1990s – although their bond fractured and Yeartie is now testifying on behalf of an alleged Trump accomplice who wants to get Willis and Wade disqualified from the case.

The explosive testimony came at an hearing where lawyers are battling over evidence that could decide whether Willis and her team are disqualified from prosecuting Trump and his associates in an election interference case.

Yeartie said she and Willis were 'good friends,' though not best friends, and that they socialized together.

'Did you observe them do things that are common among people having a romantic relationship,' another lawyer asked her.

'Hugging, kissing, just affection,' said Yeartie.

'Ms Willis is not on trial,' interjected the DA's lawyer Anna Cross during one of many tense exchanges.

She also joined Willis in the DA's office – although ended up resigning after some office clashes. She also rented her condo to Willis, although she said they did not live together.

Thursday's televised hearing came after Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee determined there was reason to go forward to weigh what evidence would be allowed after the move to disqualify Willis.

#13 From today's Kunstler:

"... their Fulton County case was entirely prepped for them out of DC by Mary McCord, the veteran blob lawyer active in every Get-Trump hoax cooked up since 2016. (And I’d bet cash-money that she had plenty of assistance from Lawfare blobsters Norm Eisen and Andrew Weissmann.) The complex particulars of the case were all teed up, ready to go. All Ms. Willis and her lead prosecutor, Mr. Wade, had to do was get the trial date set, raise the curtain, and follow the script."

"Alas, the couple got carried away in the raptures of amour and, all of a sudden, we’re in something like The Real Housewives of Atlanta. And then they lied about the details under oath, especially around the money involved."
