Marjorie Taylor Greene files complaint about Georgia prosecutor who charged Trump
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., filed a complaint Wednesday alleging misconduct by the Fulton County District Attorney.
WASHINGTON — Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., filed a complaint Wednesday alleging criminal misconduct by the district attorney prosecuting former President Donald Trump and his co-defendants in the Georgia election interference case.
Greene, a vocal Trump ally, requested a criminal investigation into Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis and the prosecutor representing the DA’s office in the case after an attorney for Trump co-defendant Michael Roman, in a filing seeking dismissal of the charges, alleged that the two had an improper relationship — what Greene called an “illegal conflict of interest.”
The referral, submitted to Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp and Attorney General Chris Carr and first reported by NBC News, pertains to claims that Willis may have personally benefited by tapping special prosecutor Nathan Wade amid accusations that the two have traveled together to destinations such as the Napa Valley and the Caribbean.
Willis has not responded to the claim, in either court filings or through requests for comment.
Greene notes that invoices submitted by Wade to the district attorney’s office total “nearly $700,000 in official funds” and include one billing on Nov. 5, 2021, “for 24 hours on a single day,” and another for two trips to Washington, D.C.
