Trump’s co-defendant provides fresh testimony amidst calls for Fani Willis’ disqualification
A New Witness Emerges, Shedding Light on a Secret Relationship
A bombshell revelation has emerged in the ongoing case against Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis. A court document filed on Monday introduces a new witness who claims to have crucial testimony regarding Willis’s undisclosed relationship with a prosecutor involved in the election interference case against former President Donald Trump.
According to the filing, attorney Cindi Lee Yeager, from the neighboring Cobb County district attorney’s office, has come forward with information about Willis’s romantic involvement with prosecutor Nathan Wade. This revelation contradicts previous testimonies and could have significant implications for the case.
A Witness’s Account Unveiled
David Shafer, one of Trump’s co-defendants, states in the filing that Yeager had multiple face-to-face conversations with witness Terrence Bradley, starting in August 2023. Yeager claims that Bradley provided detailed information about the origins of Willis and Wade’s relationship, which allegedly began before Willis hired Wade in November 2021.
Yeager’s account directly contradicts Bradley’s sworn testimony from last week, where he claimed to have no knowledge of when the relationship began. According to Yeager, Bradley disclosed that the relationship started around the time Willis and Wade first met in 2019.
Shafer asserts that if Judge Scott McAfee reopens the evidence on Willis’s disqualification, Yeager’s testimony will be subpoenaed. This testimony would challenge the sworn statements of Bradley, Willis, and Wade, potentially altering the course of the case.
A Conflict of Interest Under Scrutiny
Judge McAfee is currently deliberating whether to disqualify Willis from the case due to allegations of a conflict of interest. Trump and his co-defendants argue that Willis’s relationship with Wade has compromised the integrity of the proceedings. They have presented evidence suggesting that Willis financially benefited from their connection, raising concerns about impartiality.
Furthermore, McAfee has expressed interest in investigating whether Willis and Wade were romantically involved when she initially hired him. Willis and Wade maintain that their romantic relationship began after his hiring, while Willis insists that it has had no impact on the Trump case.
Bradley, who previously served as Wade’s divorce lawyer, was called as a witness to shed light on the relationship’s timeline. However, his credibility was called into question when he backtracked on a text message he sent explicitly stating that Willis and Wade were dating before November 2021.
Shafer now argues that Yeager’s testimony can provide further insight into Bradley’s knowledge of the relationship between Willis and Wade.
An Attempt to Silence
Shafer’s filing also reveals an alleged attempt by Willis to silence Bradley. In September 2023, after Willis came across a news article detailing the substantial earnings of Wade and his colleagues, she reportedly called Bradley in an effort to prevent him from discussing their relationship with anyone.
The filing states, “Ms. Yeager could hear that the caller was District Attorney Willis. District Attorney Willis was calling Mr. Bradley in response to an article that was published about how much money Mr. Wade and his law partners had been paid in this case. Ms. Yeager heard District Attorney Willis tell Mr. Bradley: ’They are coming after us. You don’t need to talk to them about anything about us.'”
It remains uncertain whether Judge McAfee will allow Yeager’s testimony and how it may impact his final decision on Willis’s disqualification. The judge has indicated that he will announce his ruling within the next two weeks.

What concerns are raised by the possibility of a romantic relationship between Willis and Wade in relation to the impartiality and fairness of the proceedings?
Ection, and that she may have influenced the prosecution against them.
Yeager’s testimony adds a new layer of complexity to the already contentious case. If her claims are proven true, it would raise serious concerns about the impartiality and fairness of the proceedings. The defense team argues that the relationship between Willis and Wade creates an inherent bias in favor of the prosecution, jeopardizing the defendants’ right to a fair trial.
Furthermore, Shafer contends that this revelation undermines the credibility of previous testimonies and casts doubt on the integrity of the entire investigation. He asserts that if Willis and Wade were romantically involved prior to his hiring, it raises questions about potential misconduct, preferential treatment, and conflicts of interest throughout the entire duration of their professional relationship.
The Implications and Next Steps
If Yeager’s testimony is admitted as evidence, it could trigger a reevaluation of the entire case against Trump and his co-defendants. The alleged relationship between Willis and Wade would undoubtedly have far-reaching implications, potentially leading to the dismissal of charges or, at the very least, a significant delay in the proceedings.
The Fulton County District Attorney’s Office has not yet responded to these latest revelations. However, the defense team has called for a thorough investigation into the matter, urging Judge McAfee to carefully consider the potential implications of this secret relationship on the fairness and integrity of the trial.
As the case against Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis continues to unfold, the emergence of this new witness and their testimony shines a new light on a previously undisclosed relationship. The implications of this revelation are significant, and its impact on the ongoing trial could be substantial.
It remains to be seen how Judge McAfee will navigate this complex situation and what the final outcome of the case will be. One thing is certain: this new witness and their account have the potential to alter the course of this high-profile trial and further shape the public’s perception of the justice system.
