Key witness in Fani Willis trial summoned back to testify following private meeting with judge
Judge Orders Former Law Partner to Testify About Relationship with District Attorney
A judge has made a significant ruling in the ongoing legal battle involving Nathan Wade, his former law partner, and divorce attorney Terrence Bradley, and Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis. The judge has ordered Bradley to retake the stand and provide testimony regarding the relationship between Wade and Willis.
Initially, Bradley attempted to avoid testifying by claiming attorney-client privilege. However, the judge, Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee, determined that certain communications between Wade and Bradley were not protected by this privilege. As a result, the hearing can proceed with Bradley’s examination.
Key Witness for Trump’s Defense Attorneys
Bradley is considered a crucial witness for the defense attorneys representing Donald Trump, who are seeking to remove Willis from the case. Specifically, Mike Roman’s defense attorney is eager to hear Bradley’s testimony regarding the timeline of the alleged personal relationship between Willis and Wade. They argue that Bradley possesses personal knowledge that the romantic involvement began before Willis appointed Wade as the special prosecutor for the case against Trump in 2021.
Ashleigh Merchant, Roman’s attorney, stated in a court filing that Bradley can confirm that Willis contracted with Wade after their romantic relationship had already begun, contradicting Wade’s claim that they only started dating in 2022.
Disqualification Decision Pending
Both Willis and Wade have testified under oath that their relationship did not commence prior to Wade’s appointment to the case. However, the motion to disqualify Willis from the case based on her relationship is still ongoing. Closing arguments for this motion are scheduled for Friday, after which Judge McAfee will make a decision.
