Fani Willis Forced To Turn Over Key Records Showing Anti-Trump Collusion
SUMMARY
A Georgia judge dropped a big ruling Thursday, telling Fulton County DA Fani Willis she’s got five days to fork over 212 pages of records tied to her chats with Special Counsel Jack Smith. Fulton County Superior Court Judge Robert C.I. McBurney’s order came after Judicial Watch, a watchdog group, sued Willis for dodging their request for docs on possible coordination with Smith and the House January 6th Committee. Willis swore she didn’t have anything—until a default judgment proved she did. Now, McBurney’s making her show the goods, affidavit and all, detailing how her team hunted for them (cell phones included). She’d claimed privilege and investigation exemptions, but the judge isn’t buying it yet—if she holds stuff back, she’ll have to explain under seal. No special master for now, but it’s on the table. This stings for Willis, already booted from Trump’s case in December over her fling with prosecutor Nathan Wade. That mess, plus the YSL trial flop, keeps her in the hot seat.
