The Democrats proved once more that the law only applies when they’re using it to attack enemies.
On Friday, Judge Scott McAfee released his ruling on the misconduct case charged against Fani Willis and lover-special prosecutor Nathan Wade.
According to his verdict, Willis and her whole team must step aside from Donald Trump’s RICO case, or Wade must withdraw as a special prosecutor before the case proceeds.
Judge McAfee added that their relationship gives an “appearance of impropriety,” which affected the entire prosecution team.
“As the case moves forward, reasonable members of the public could easily be left to wonder whether the financial exchanges have continued, resulting in some form of benefit to the District Attorney, or even whether the romantic relationship has resumed,” the Georgia judge wrote.
“[T]he established record now highlights a significant appearance of impropriety that infects the current structure of the prosecution team—an appearance that must be removed through the state’s selection of one of two options. The defendants’ motions are therefore granted in part,” McAfee detailed in his 23-page verdict.
Willis and Wade testified in an oral argument hearing last month and admitted they were in a relationship. The two claimed that Willis did not benefit from it.
While the district attorney may stay in the case, Judge McAfee slammed her “tremendous lapse in judgment or “the unprofessional manner of the district attorney’s testimony during the evidentiary hearing.”
“Georgia law does not permit the finding of an actual conflict for simply making bad choices—even repeatedly—and it is the trial court’s duty to confine itself to the relevant issues and applicable law properly brought before it,” McAfee wrote.
Responding to McAfee’s decision, Wade hands his resignation to Willis, Fulton County’s district attorney and ex-lover.
Willis accepted the resignation and recognized his alleged “professionalism and dignity” while enduring threats “against you and your family, as well as unjustified attacks in the media and in court on your reputation as a lawyer.”
Willis further said, “I will always remember—and will remind everyone—that you were brave enough to step forward and take on the investigation and prosecution of the allegations that the defendants in this case engaged in.”
Meanwhile, Breitbart News revealed that McAfee was never really impartial in the case, as he had donated to Willis’ campaign in July 2020.
According to her financial disclosures, the judge and his wife donated $150 to her campaign.
However, experts considered this donation insignificant.
