JONATHAN TURLEY: Fani Willis' case against Trump collapses under its own insanity
---
(Excerpt from the article)
Some of us have been loud critics of the racketeering case brought by [Fani]Willis from the outset, calling it legally and factually absurd. The loosely constructed theory placed Trump at the center of an enterprise with 18 other individuals who had little to do with each other as a group, let alone in a conspiracy.
The case was always an example of raw, open lawfare, but Willis was widely heralded by politicians and pundits for her efforts. Even when she was found to have hired her former lover, Nathan Wade, and botched the prosecution, she was lionized by the left.
The grand jury report was a mess. The case began as a virtual circus with a grand jury report that was a mess and a self-proclaimed witch as foreperson. Emily Kohrs proceeded to give spellbinding, giggling interviews touting the merits of the case ..."

COMMENTS:
"Georgia's too broad RICO law enabled Fani Willis to indict all these people together, when in reality, they weren't connected to each other -- and that's what turned this whole trial into a circus.
After the allegations were made about Willis and Nathan Wade's relationship, all Fani had to do was voluntarily dismiss Wade from the case -- and voluntarily assign John Floyd to lead the case. For those who don't know who John Floyd is, he was one of the other prosecutors on the Election Interference case -- who has years of prosecuting experience and is known as a RICO expert. Because of his expertise and experience, John Floyd "trained" Nathan Wade on RICO laws so he could lead the case. The man Fani Willis paid "$700,000" to, had to be "trained" so he could do the job he was hired for. Let that sink in."

"Fani Willis needs to be subpoenaed to explain "why" Nathan Wade was reimbursed thousands of dollars for trips to Washington, DC -- when he testified, he couldn't remember "who" he met with or what the meetings were about. I believe Dexter Bond "approved" Wade's invoices. As a Fulton County taxpayer, I want to know if it is common practice for Dexter Bond and the Fulton County District Attorney's office, to reimburse invoices without back-up documentation or an explanation of what the charges are for -- especially for an important case like this."
