In a stun­ning 4–3 deci­sion on Sep­tem­ber 16, 2025, the Geor­gia Supreme Court reject­ed Ful­ton Coun­ty DA Fani Willis’s appeal, dis­qual­i­fy­ing her and her office from pros­e­cut­ing Pres­i­dent Don­ald Trump’s 2020 elec­tion inter­fer­ence RICO case due to her roman­tic rela­tion­ship with spe­cial pros­e­cu­tor Nathan Wade.
