Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has called on Judge Scott McAfee to disallow as evidence cellphone records submitted by Trump lawyers suggesting she and special prosecutor Nathan Wade may have lied about when their romantic relationship began.
Ms. Willis’s objection to the new evidence, which Trump attorneys say adds weight to their argument she hired her then-boyfriend for mutual financial gain in a corrupt bargain and should be disqualified, came in a Feb. 23 court filing.
Former President Donald Trump’s attorneys, Steve Sadow and Jennifer Little, filed a court affidavit on Friday from a private investigator hired to obtain Mr. Wade’s and Ms. Willis’s text and voice call history.
The investigator, Charles Mittelstadt, said in the affidavit he found the pair made over 2,000 calls and exchanged 12,000 text messages in 2021, many months before they say their relationship began.
Some of the data, which Ms. Willis argues in her filing is inadmissible for technical or procedural reasons, purports to show that Mr. Wade was at the condominium where Ms. Willis was living late at night and well into the morning on multiple occasions in September and November 2021.
