"Key Developments in Trump Georgia Prosecutor Fani Willis Misconduct Hearing"

A two-day evidentiary hearing is underway to determine whether Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis should be disqualified from the Georgia RICO case against Donald Trump and others due to allegations of an improper romantic relationship with special prosecutor Nathan Wade. If successful, this could potentially derail the case, impacting the trial timeline and allowing Trump to avoid trial until after the 2024 election. The hearing will focus on establishing the existence and extent of any financial benefit from the alleged relationship. If Willis survives the challenge, the DA's office aims to refocus on trial preparation. The case's future prosecutor would be determined by Georgia's Prosecuting Attorneys' Council if Willis is removed.
