The Fulton County District Attorney in Georgia, Fonny Willis, is facing a congressional subpoena following allegations that she financially benefited from a romantic relationship with one of her colleagues. Willis admitted to starting a personal relationship with special prosecutor Nathan Wade, whom she hired for the election interference case against former President Trump. However, she claims that the relationship did not taint the case.
This acknowledgment by Willis contrasts with her previous statements after assuming office, where she indicated that she would not date individuals working under her. The allegations against her also include claims that Wade used his salary to fund trips for the two of them to various vacation spots around the country. In an affidavit, Wade stated that they both contributed to the expenses, but he never gave any of his salary back to Willis.
