Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis stormed into a court hearing about her romantic relationship with special prosecutor Nathan Wade late Thursday afternoon, saying she wanted to testify about the affair — in a sharp volte-face from prior court filings.

“We need her in here to go over all of this and to explain exactly what happened,” a defense attorney argued. “We ask the court that the court allow Ms. Willis to be called and interrogated on these matters.”

“And I would too, your honor,” Willis interjected — glaring expectantly back and forth at the judge and the defense attorney.

The state then withdrew its motion to quash the subpoena filed against her and several employees and hires of her office in late January by attorneys representing co-defendant Michael Roman, a former staffer for Donald Trump’s 2020 election campaign.
