    News flash to Ben: it's not weird that a couple would have some $ reimbursement going on throughout their relationship. My guy & I have managed joint expenses that way for years. I'll tell you what IS really weird though - 2 independant responsible adults having to answer the harrassing picayune, insulting questions like those put to Fani Willis & Jason Wade. What's weird is that the judge didn't (or couldn't, once he'd approved a hearing) put a stop to this as soon as it was clear how bogus the charges are. I can't believe they're going to keep the whole stupid trashy fiasco going for more days. Some system - or is it the practitioners - of justice! I'm disgusted.

    Fascinating listening to lawyers creating scenarios around the love life of prosecutors. I am still not sure how that links to the case where multiple people, some who plead guilty, tried to overthrow the election in Georgia. You can put a round peg into a square hole but it looks sloppy.

    @JR-pr8jb 3 месяца назад +4

    As for any conflict, doesn't there have to be some potential prejudice to the defendants? Both Willis and Wade are prosecutors, with the same interest, that of convicting the indicted defendants. The relationship had nothing to do with the prosecutors' zeal to get a conviction.

    • @wanderlustworldschooling543
      @wanderlustworldschooling543 3 месяца назад

      Legal AF said the only reason there would have been a conflict of interest would have been if he was being paid on contingency. Without that, the relationship or financials are moot 🤷🏻‍♀️
