I think she is a disgrace to the nation and to her profession. Peter, given the current DEI cultural environment, what would you estimate the chances of her being disbarred? Of being convicted of perjury, and actually doing prison time?
At this point speculations are premature. Perjury could be the LEAST of her worries.
Depending on how the courts view Nathan Wade's claim she reimbursed him with cash for their shared trips, she could be facing various levels of charges for fraud and official misconduct.
Given some of the commentaries that have been made about how Fani Willis pursued the Trump case, there might even be criminal civil rights violations at play (assuming the DoJ could be persuaded to prosecute them).
Given what Jonathan Turley has termed the "Jackson Pollock" nature of the case, one has to wonder if this is now a provable case of malicious prosecution.
I do not know what the ultimate outcome of this evidentiary hearing is going to be. Based on what MSNBC put out--and recognizing that MSNBC is one of the most anti-Trump media outlets on the planet--it's hard to see this going in any positive direction for Fani Willis.
Fani Willis wanted to ride the anti-Trump train to prosecutorial fame and glory.
If she succeeded in convicting Donald Trump on a RICO charge, she'd be the hero of every Democrat narrative for the next four years. At a minimum she'd be a shoe in for higher political office in Georgia, and possibly even on the national level.
What is emerging is that she wanted Trump's scalp, didn't care how she got it, and in the meantime was on a total power trip as Fulton County DA, even to the extent of illegally hiring her boyfriend to work on the case.
When even corporate media won't defend her, you know she's in trouble.

This is what they get for A. Rushing to indict Trump before the election and B. Using a DEI attorney to try the case.
