Upcoming: Georgia Senate to Investigate Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis
Alleged Misconduct and Misuse of Funds Under Scrutiny
A Georgia Senate committee has been appointed to investigate potential conflicts of interest and misuse of public funds by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis.
The investigation stems from a complaint filed by lawyer Nathan Wade, who accused Willis of misusing her office to investigate former President Donald Trump and his allies in the 2020 election.
The committee will also examine Willis's handling of a $1.4 million grant from the Open Society Foundations, a liberal philanthropic organization.
Willis has denied any wrongdoing and has accused her critics of trying to intimidate her and interfere with her investigation. However, the Senate committee's investigation could lead to her removal from office if she is found to have violated the law.
The investigation is a major development in the long-running saga surrounding Willis's investigation of Trump and his allies. Stay tuned for updates as this story develops.
