Joycelyn Wade “unfortunately reconnected with an old friend through social media, and the only extent of her contact was text messages,” wrote Hastings, who argued that her client never met the former flame in person and the couple “successfully addressed this issue.” clarified”. This is evidenced by the fact that this only happened four (4) years later [Nathan] filed for divorce.”

Hastings added of the prosecutor's allegations: “[raise] the question of whether Ms. Wills has equally intimate knowledge of marital disputes involving other of her special prosecutors.”
“Your public question about 'why one' seems to be met with an answer that suggests: 'Because you, Ms. Wills, are having an affair with him and not with them.'”
Meanwhile, the Fulton County Board of Commissioners announced Friday that it is investigating whether Willis misused county funds and accepted “valuable gifts and personal benefits” from Nathan Wade, giving the Atlanta district attorney until Feb. 2 to admit answer.
