Judge Scott McAfee said that he could put no 'stock' in key witness testimony in allegations that Fani Willis' affair with Nathan Wade started prior to Wade's hiring.

A Georgia judge on Friday said that District Attorney Fani Willis can continue prosecuting the case against former President Trump if she removes her ex-lover from her legal team, after deciding he could put no 'stock' in a key witness’ testimony.

In his order on Friday, McAfee said Bradley’s 'inconsistencies, demeanor, and generally non-responsive answers left far too brittle a foundation upon which to build any conclusions.' 'While prior inconsistent statements can be considered as substantive evidence under Georgia law, Bradley’s impeachment by text message did not establish the basis for which he claimed such sweeping knowledge of Wade’s personal affairs,' McAfee said.

Judge McAfee in his order Friday said that 'while the testimony of Robin Yearti raised doubts about the State’s assertions, it ultimately lacked context and detail.' 'either side was able to conclusively establish by a preponderance of the evidence when the relationship evolved into a romantic one,' he added.
