Fani Willis Ordered to Release Communications in Trump Case Investigation

A state judge has ordered Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis to turn over communications with Special Counsel Jack Smith and the House Jan. 6 Committee after failing to respond to a lawsuit by Judicial Watch. The conservative group sought these records through an open records request, suspecting Willis coordinated politically motivated prosecutions with Smith and the committee. The judge ruled Willis in default for not responding to the lawsuit, requiring her to search for and provide the requested documents. A hearing is set for Dec. 20 to address Judicial Watch's request for legal fees.
