Cellphone Data May Just Cook Fani Willis and Nathan Wade's Goose About Start of Relationship

Nick Arama reporting for RedState 

The evidence was already not looking good for Fulton County DA Fani Willis and her story about when her relationship with special prosecutor Nathan Wade began. There was prior testimony from her former good friend Robin Yeartie that the relationship began in 2019, before what both Wade and Willis told the Court. That was bad enough. 

The defense, including former President Donald Trump, is arguing that the two and the DA's office should be disqualified from the case because of the relationship. The couple was forced to admit there was a romance, but both claimed it began in 2022 -- after Wade had been hired in Nov. 2021. 

Now there's more evidence that just may cook Willis and Wade's goose on the issue and earn them a lot of trouble. The Trump team revealed in a filing with the Court that they have cellphone data they obtained from AT&T pursuant to a subpoena. According to the data in the filing, Wade appeared to have made at least 35 visits to the Hapeville neighborhood where Fani Willis was living before the district attorney hired him.

Trump’s lawyers relied on data collected from Wade’s cellphone and cellphone tower transmissions which they said tracked his movements. It could contradict Wade’s testimony last week in which he said he had visited Willis at her condo in Hapeville no more than 10 times before he was hired in November 2021. It also indicates Wade twice arrived in the area late at night and left early the next morning in the months before Willis and Wade said their relationship became romantic early in 2022.

Both Wade and Willis testified last week that they did not spend the night together at the Hapeville condo.

Check the timing and when he's in the area. 

On one occasion, on Sept. 11, 2021, Wade’s phone left the Doraville area and arrived in the vicinity of Willis’ Hapeville address at 10:45 p.m. The phone remained there until 3:28 a.m. and could later be seen arriving in East Cobb at 4:05 a.m., shortly before Wade sent a text to Willis, the affidavit said. 

Similarly, Wade’s phone left the East Cobb area the night of Nov. 29, 2021, after receiving an 11:32 p.m. call from Willis, the affidavit said. It arrived in Hapeville at 12:43 a.m. and remained there until 4:55 a.m., the affidavit added.

Then there's the number of calls and texts. There was an affidavit from investigator Charles Mittelstadt.

The affidavit says Willis and Wade called each other more than 2,000 times during the first 11 months of 2021 and exchanged just less than 10,000 text messages.

That was all during the time they claimed they weren't having a romantic relationship. 

Two thousand phone calls and almost 10,000 text messages? That's an incredible amount of communication. 

This has to up the likelihood that they get disqualified. As the Atlanta Journal-Constitution notes, this also could also bring them lots of trouble. If it's determined that they lied under oath, it could constitute perjury and their careers could be in jeopardy.
