Fani Willis and her tainted team should be removed from Trump case in Georgia
Fox News correspondent Steve Harrigan has the latest on the trial's closing arguments live from Atlanta, Ga. on 'Special Report.'
Now that the motion to disqualify Fani Willis is in the hands of the judge awaiting his ruling, the Fulton District Attorney’s Office is in a full state of disarray, brought upon it by an arrogant, self-serving, self-righteous and self-dealing "Madame District Attorney," as she refers to herself.
The various defendants who have filed for the indictment to be dismissed based on a conflict of interest allege two primary grounds. First, that Willis engaged in "Forensic Misconduct," which means through her countless media appearances and recent church appearances, where she has talked about this specific disqualification effort, she has effectively denied the defendants a fair trial.
On this point, lawyers pointed out that Willis arrogantly marched into a pulpit at a Black church in Atlanta, filled with potential jurors, and said God was on her side, that the lawyers attacking her were racists, and by telling them she had a 95% conviction rate, thus implying that the defendants were most certainly guilty.

She’s not allowed to do that. Under the Georgia Rules of Professional Conduct, she violated one, Rule 3.8, specially aimed at prosecutors:
ONE THING CERTAIN AFTER FANI WILLIS' BIG EMBARRASSMENT IN THE COURTROOM
"The prosecutor in a criminal case shall… refrain from making extrajudicial comments that have a substantial likelihood of heightening public condemnation of the accused."
The maximum penalty for violating this rule is disbarment.
Her going into a church packed full of potential jurors and slamming the defendants and their lawyers for calling out her nepotism, her self-dealing, and her apparent dishonesty to the court, while calling them racists, clearly violates Rule 3.8. And if she can get disbarred for it, she should most certainly be........
