Nathan Wade Resigns From Trump Georgia Case After Ruling on Fani Willis: Live Updates
nytimes.com/live/2024/03/15/us/fani-willis-trump-georgia
Quick Glance: Special Prosecutor Steps Back from Trump's Georgia Case
- Special prosecutor Nathan Wade formally withdrew from the Georgia election interference case against Donald Trump after a judge ruled he had to leave for Fani Willis to continue pursuing charges.
- Trump's team claimed the case was an effort to damage his campaign to reclaim the White House in November. Trump denied any wrongdoing and pleaded not guilty.
- In a separate criminal case against Trump in New York, a judge agreed to delay the trial related to hush-money payments during Trump's 2016 campaign until at least mid-April.
- Friday's events underscored how the case, which began with allegations of a former president trying to undermine the will of the voters, became consumed by the love lives of its top prosecutors. Judge McAfee found that Willis did not benefit personally from her relationship with Wade, but there remained an 'odor of mendacity.'
