"Legal Drama Unfolds: Prosecutor's Testimony Threatens Fani Willis' Case"

A co-defendant in the 2020 Georgia election interference case has filed a notice proposing testimony from attorney Cindi Lee Yeager, alleging that Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis and Special Prosecutor Nathan Wade had a romantic relationship during Willis's campaign for District Attorney. Yeager claims to have had conversations with Terrence Bradley, who allegedly had personal knowledge of the relationship and overheard Willis warning Bradley, "They are coming after us."
