Shannon Bream is standing by with her legal panel in
Washington,
DC Shannon, you have a potpourri of legal issues to
talk about if you'd like to choose a couple.
We do. And I think Next up is going to
be Georgia and Fonny Willis.
That's where we're going with Jonathan Turley and Andy McCarthy.
OK, so this is another place,
Andy, that President Trump's legal team is feeling bullish.
We're waiting to see whether the judge there,
Scott McAfee, kicks her off,
disqualifies her or Nathan Wade from the case.
What do you think as we wait?
I think there's a very good chance that not only
well Fanny Willis be kicked off the case,
but that her office will be taken off the case.
And to me that's the
that's the interesting part of it.
Because if the whole case goes to a different prosecutor
who's not as invested in this cockamamie Rico theory that
she brought in the case,
then it's a very different
prosecution. Yeah. And now, Jonathan,
we have somebody else who's come forward.
I mean, they had sort of the closing arguments last
Friday.
But this person is saying,
if you would be willing to take more evidence in
the case,
I know more about what happened here.
No, it's it's like a series of jump scares in
this,
this, this, these proceedings. Every day
someone stands up and says,
I also have testimony to give.
And what's interesting about this one is it's another prosecutor
who,
first of all says that I heard this witness say
that the relationship began long before Nathan Wade was hired.
Now the judge could easily say,
look, we have that in the bag.
We already know that,
that Bradley's testimony contradicted what he told counsel.
And it's pretty clear in his text that he didn't
have any problem with his memory when he was talking
to counsel.
And just to remind folks when he was asked in
the the back and forth text,
when did did you know for sure that this started
earlier.
He said the word absolutely,
absolutely. Yeah. And but what's what I think is more
troubling for the court is that there is a second
recounting which says that this this prosecutor had heard Willis
say that you should not basically basically should not give
information about our relationship.
Now if she actually heard Willis herself say that either
over a speakerphone or in person,
that could be viewed as influencing a witness.
Keep in mind that Wade and Willis are already accused
of filing false statements with the court.
They are prosecuting people in this case for that alleged
crime.
Now if they're accused of of influencing a witness,
at least for in Willis's case,
that's also one of the the counts in this case.
So at some point it becomes untenable that you're being
accused of the same conduct you're prosecuting people for.
So the question is, is even before you get to
what the judge does is what are they doing in
this case?
I mean they are clearly putting their personal interest ahead
of their case in their office.
Well quickly Andy, if they are booted from the case,
do you think it gets tried before the election?
I don't think it gets tried before the election anyway,
as it's conceived because she doesn't have the only thing
these nineteen people have ever done together is get indicted.
She doesn't have a conspiracy and she certainly doesn't have
a Rico.
Well, we await that decision from the judge,
and for now we'll take it back to Brett.
Martha.
