Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis issued a public statement over the recent weekend for the first time after testifying in Fulton County Superior Court regarding her relationship with her special prosecutor involved in the Georgia case against former President Donald Trump.

On Feb. 17, she accepted a “Black History Achievement Award” at the Atlanta Berean Church, two days after she took a combative stance during questioning from lawyers about whether she accepted vacation payments from special prosecutor Nathan Wade and about the nature of their relationship. She made a vague reference to the case and the allegations against her.
