One of former President Donald Trump's co-defendants in the Georgia election interference case alleged in a court filing Monday that Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis and special prosecutor Nathan Wade had engaged in a “romantic relationship.”
In a 39-page filing seeking a dismissal of charges, an attorney for Trump co-defendant Michael Roman made accusations that Willis and Wade have traveled together to destinations including Napa Valley and that they've been seen together around Atlanta in a personal capacity.
The filing does not provide any direct evidence to support the claims — citing only “sources with knowledge” and raising questions about the process by which Willis hired Wade, who has represented the DA’s office in court proceedings for the case.
