Defense lawyers argue that the romantic relationship between top prosecutors in the Trump election interference case in Georgia merits disqualification.
Defense lawyers have accused Fani T. Willis, the Fulton County district attorney, of hiring Nathan J. Wade to run the case after she began a romantic relationship with him.
Two of the state’s largest church groups are teaming up in a rare effort they say is motivated by this year’s stakes and new voting restrictions in Georgia.
A lawyer for the co-defendant said she has a witness who can testify that the relationship began before Fani Willis, the Fulton County district attorney, hired Nathan Wade.
