Harvard Law School professor Alan Dershowitz blasted as “utterly dishonest” a judge’s “weaselly” ruling Friday to let Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis proceed with her election interference prosecution of Donald Trump and his allies.
In a brutal takedown of the 23-page ruling by Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee, a Dershowitz asked, “Who are you going to believe, this judge or your lying eyes?”
McAfee wrote that Willis could continue with the prosecution, but only if Nathan Wade, the lead prosecutor she appointed and with whom she had an affair, withdraws from the case, noting an “appearance of impropriety that infects the current structure of the prosecution team.”
“I think the result is utterly dishonest,” Dershowitz said. “Everybody knows … that she profited … that she conspired to commit perjury with Nathan Wade and with the other witness.
“We all know there was an actual conflict of interest here,” he added. “[McAfee] just doesn’t have the guts to say it. And I predicted he wouldn’t have the guts to say it. He has to live in Fulton County.”
Dershowitz conceded the judge “may have said some things that are very critical of her, but still, he should have removed [her] … from the case.”
He also lamented how the ruling “undercuts our legal system tremendously.”
“He should have ruled, honestly, yes, there’s a conflict. Yes, she committed perjury. Yes there was a conspiracy. Yes, she received financial benefit for this. That’s the truth and the truth matters,” Dershowitz said.
