robosmith Posted March 15 Report Share Posted March 15 At Least the Fani Willis Case Against Trump Has a Reasonable Judge Quote Judge Scott McAfee has proved himself able to handle the mess the Georgia prosecution of Donald Trump has become. District Attorney Fani Willis will be able to continue in her RICO prosecution of former President Donald Trump and his associates, the judge in that case ruled on Friday, when he rejected the argument that she be disqualified from the case over allegations of a conflict of interest stemming from a romantic relationship with a co-prosecutor. The judge, Scott McAfee of Fulton County Superior Court, rejected the motion that would likely have torpedoed one of the most powerful criminal cases against the former president. Instead, he chastised Willis for poor judgment but allowed her to stay on the case so long as her former romantic partner, special prosecutor Nathan Wade, withdraws from the proceeding. The Pit Bull Willis will continue the case that the election won't stop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean the fat racist, Fani Willis, will continue the case, but we'll see about that. In the meantime, Judge McAfee could be good if he doesn't let the woketards taint his judgement.

Caswell Thomas Posted March 16 Report Share Posted March 16 And even better if Trump doesn't try his " any kitchen sink in a storm" defense again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OftenWrong Posted March 16 Report Share Posted March 16 So he's not ballin' the prosecutor? Well that's an improvement alright. Maybe they'll bring in Page and Strzok for a follow-up session. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffypants Posted March 16 Report Share Posted March 16 What is really funny is by working so hard to save her own ass she may of just opened up a whole bunch of lawsuits to be brought against her, for using phone location records to convict people, when in the hearing she said using phone location is unreliable. She shot her credibility to hell by lying in the hearing and sleeping with someone who worked for her and there is a good chance after all is said and done her career will be over. I wonder how she is going to feel about going after Trump after this is all over, especially if she is unable to get a conviction. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironstone Posted March 16 Report Share Posted March 16 Some people may beg to differ on this judge. I respect the opinion of Alan Dershowitz more than most other legal pundits. I point out that he is a classic liberal and no fan of Trump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a hired gun defense lawyer who will say whatever serves the interests of his client, like he did at Trump's impeachment, esp when he's NOT IN COURT and BOUND by JUDICIAL ETHICS. Probably hoping for another job defending Trump. 🤮 McAfee followed GA LAW and Douchowitz has not even passed the Bar in GA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The judge has allowed a person that badly abused her position(s) with an underling. While throwing cash money around so it couldn't be later tracked, lying about both in court. She's the guiltier of the two, but gets to remain. That's pretty funny, judge. I look with interest to see what the Georgia Bar comes up with since her indiscretions have apparently been referred to them. A lawyer can't lie in court, misappropriate funds, etc. But it is the GEORGIA Bar, so they may try to split the baby as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willis makes $200K and was trying to accelerate the trial not milk it. The idea that she was prejudicing the defendant is ridiculous and unsupported by EVIDENCE which is why McAfee ruled she could stay. That and the FACT that if it was reassigned, it could easily never happen, which would NOT serve justice. GA law allows married couples to represent opposing sides at trial.

Interesting that you bring up judicial ethics when this was about Fani and Nathan perjuring themselves. Fani benefitted financially from this case and her excuse that she always pays cash is laughable. Not to mention the fact that Wade had no experience with this type of a case. How are Fani and her boyfriend ethical? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To suggest she needs Wade to pay a few thousand dollars for her vacations is JUST NONSENSE. 5 hours ago, ironstone said: Not to mention the fact that Wade had no experience with this type of a case. He was hired to manage it. What's the difference between managing "this type of a case" and any othe 5 hours ago, ironstone said: How are Fani and her boyfriend ethical? That's NOT the question. The question is how does him working for her prejudice the interests of the defendants? The JUDGE (who knows the case) said it DOES NOT. IF you believe YOU KNOW BETTER, then DETAIL HOW. IF (as I suspect) you have NO EXPERIENCE managing a legal prosecution, YOUR OPINION MEANS NOTHING. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironstone Posted March 17 Report Share Posted March 17 I heard a very good analogy from Jonathan Turley regarding this judge's decision. It's like a cop walking his beat, he sees the lights on in a bank, goes in and finds two thieves in the bank vault. The cop decides that he'll let one of the thieves go and the other one gets a warning, but they both will be allowed to keep everything they've stolen so far. This judge minimized all of the evidence that clearly indicated Willis and Wade lied on the stand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Proof beyond a reasonable doubt and preponderance to the EVIDENCE are legal standards. And you've still NOT detailed HOW the relationship prejudiced the defendants' rights. You do know it's the JURY which decides guilt, don't you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, it's almost entirely manufactured to take shots at Fani Willis and embarrass her Nobody is dumb enough to actually believe that she was prosecuting Trump in order to employ her boyfriend and go on trips. Nor that the relationship would in any way affect the administration of justice. It's just a bad look and opportunists are taking advantage of it to humiliate a legal/political foe.

If she convicts him she will be invited to The View, Jimmy Kimmel etc and be fawned over. I wouldn't be suprised if Biden gets back into office he makes her a federal judge or appoints her to something high profile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, she's prosecuting him because he's a criminal and her job is to prosecute criminals. The rest is gravy. You can be sure that if any average Joe conspired to defraud Georgia voters they'd be facing the same kinds of charges. They just wouldn't be on TV as much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF ^this were true, Willis would have dragged out the trial to milk it; but the FACT is, she was trying to accelerate the trial. You state "benefitting" as FACT when it is ENTIRELY SPECULATION on YOUR PART. She made a $200K salary and had NO NEED for Wade's money to go on vacation. 2 hours ago, Aristides said: Never been able to understand what about this is a scandal or conflict.

She's not a "pit bull", she's a liar and a sneaky ho. You know that, I know that, and everyone in North America with a TV or an internet connection knows that. If you really wanted a guilty verdict (let's not pretend that you want actual justice or anything), you'd want to have a respectable, professional prosecutor and not someone who's known to be a liar. I know that, as a leftist, the fact that someone is a liar doesn't bother you at all, but a lot of people still care. Any reasonable person will have to take into account the fact that Willis is a liar every time she speaks. Every word she says and every bit of 'evidence' she provides will be tainted by that.

Unfortunate that you have NO EVIDENCE she LIED and don't even specify what YOU BELIEVE the lie is. Meanwhile you PROVE LIES don't bother YOU at ALL because you worship the most dishonest AND pathological LIAR to ever occupy the WH. There is STILL a list of 30,000+ lies of which you've not refuted even ONE. You have no room to talk about LIES bothering ANYONE. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
