More Fani woes.
The judge presiding over Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis' case announced Monday that the former law partner of special prosecutor Nathan Wade will have to testify in court on his knowledge of the timeline of the intimate relationship between Willis and Wade.
Defense counsel claimed the ex-law partner, Terrence Bradley, had direct knowledge that Willis and Wade's relationship started before Wade was hired in the election interference case involving former President Donald Trump. The testimony of Bradley, who is also Wade's former divorce lawyer, is expected to resume Tuesday afternoon.
The judge's decision came after an in-camera hearing Monday with Bradley and his lawyer, after the judge previously said it appeared Bradley may have been misusing his attorney-client privilege.

Terrence Bradley's testimony on Tuesday may have "undermined" the credibility of District Attorney Fani Willis as she fights to remain on the election subversion case against former President Donald Trump, according to CNN senior legal analyst Laura Coates.
Bradley—the former divorce lawyer for Fulton County Special Counsel Nathan Wade—was called to the witness stand after the presiding judge in the disqualification case ruled on Monday that he was not covered by attorney-client privilege.
"I think it has undermined the credibility of the arguments made by both Nathan Wade and also Fani Willis," Coates said during an appearance on The Lead with Jake Tapper.

OMFG. Let's talk about the serious stuff here...
Fani Willis has been furiously mocked on social media over accusations that she accidentally put on her dress backwards before taking the stand in court this week.
The 53-year-old Fulton County District Attorney - who has been testifying at a hearing over misconduct allegations - was brutally savaged on social media after eagle-eyed users pointed out that she had a zipper running up the front of her pink frock.

Was the Trump/Raffensperger phone call illegally recorded?

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

“Fruit of the poisonous trees is a doctrine that extends the exclusionary rule to make evidence inadmissible in court if it was derived from evidence that was illegally obtained,” according to Cornell Law School’s Legal Information Institute. “As the metaphor suggests, if the evidential ‘tree’ is tainted, so is its ‘fruit.’ The doctrine was established in 1920 by the decision in Silverthorne Lumber Co. v. United States, and the phrase ‘fruit of the poisonous tree’ was coined by Justice Frankfurter in his 1939 opinion in Nardone v. United States. The rule typically bars even testimonial evidence resulting from excludable evidence, such as a confession.”
With Fani Willis repeatedly saying the entire investigation into Republicans was the result of a phone call that was illegally recorded, defendants might pursue legal recourse. It’s the latest challenge for Willis, even if the political ally judge reviewing whether she can continue prosecuting Georgia Republicans rules in her favor.
The documentation of the illegality of the recording is in Michael Isikoff's book - remember he's the RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA guy.
The person who recorded it, without either participant's permission was supposed to be a "star witness" in the Jan 6 hearings. She was never called, supposedly because her status would be revealed as "problematic."
From Isikoff's book:
Fuchs has never talked publicly about her taping of the phone call; she learned, after the fact, that Florida where she was at the time is one of fifteen states that requires two-party consent for the taping of phone calls. A lawyer for Raffensperger’s office asked the January 6 committee not to call her as a witness for reasons the committee’s lawyers assumed were due to her potential legal exposure. The committee agreed. But when she was called before a Fulton County special grand jury convened by Fani Willis, she was granted immunity and confirmed the taping, according to three sources with direct knowledge of her testimony.

Judge quashes 6 counts of the indictment.
Not sure, yet, which ones.
But this gives him political cover to NOT dismiss Fani, doesn't it?

Consider...This IS Fulton County and Atlanta rivals New Orleans as the Chocolate City of the South. Dismissing Gorilla Grip may have political repercussions for an elected judge...
