Terrence Bradley testified Tuesday in the latest hearing into alleged misconduct by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, who faces questions about her relationship with a colleague.
The defendants in her sweeping election fraud trial, including former President Trump, accused Willis of misconduct by lying about the beginning of her relationship with fellow prosecutor Nathan Wade, who is also working on Trump's case.
Bradley was Wade's partner at the bar and served as his divorce attorney as of 2021. Revelations from the divorce proceedings last month raised questions about the timing of Willis and Wade's relationship, which is central to allegations that Willis sought personal gain by hiring Wade.
An acquaintance of Willis testified in these divorce proceedings that the relationship began in 2019, before the divorce proceedings began.
Bradley took the stand earlier this month but said he could not discuss the couple's relationship because he was subject to Wade's attorney-client privilege. Wade objected to the questioning on the grounds that it could “unlawfully compel” Bradley to reveal private information.
Judge Scott McAfee called Bradley back to the witness stand on Tuesday and asked him to answer some questions in more detail.
Bradley has been practicing law in Georgia since 2007 after earning his law degree from John Marshall Law School in Atlanta.
His testimony on Tuesday is central to Trump's lawyers' attempts to exclude Willis from his case, citing allegations of misconduct.
