The Georgia prosecutor, Nathan Wade, who’s been leading the charge against former President Donald Trump, recently found himself in a bit of legal trouble. Last year, Wade was held in contempt of court for defying an order during his divorce proceedings. As if that wasn’t juicy enough, it was revealed that Wade had allegedly failed to turn over documents about his income, which reportedly included money he made while working on the case against Trump. Talk about some messy personal and professional entanglement!
But wait, there’s more drama! A lawyer for one of Trump’s co-defendants claimed in a court filing that Wade had an affair with Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis. While no evidence of this affair has been presented yet, Wade’s wife isn’t taking any chances. She served Fani Willis with a subpoena, demanding that she testify in the divorce case. The plot thickens, folks!

It’s absolutely scandalous, isn’t it? While the affair allegations may be up in the air, the fact that Wade was held in contempt of court doesn’t bode well for his integrity. It’s like the judge essentially wagged a finger at him and said, “Shame on you!” As if leading a case against a former president wasn’t enough pressure, Wade is now dealing with his own messy legal battles. Talk about spreading yourself thin!
To make matters even more interesting, Wade is primarily a divorce lawyer, not a seasoned pro at handling high-stakes criminal cases like the indictment of Trump and his allies. The decision to bring him in as a “special prosecutor” for the Trump case has come under heavy scrutiny. It’s like trying to make a quarterback play as a goalie in soccer – talk about being out of your element!
And then there’s the matter of Wade’s income. It turns out he raked in over $700,000 from the Fulton County district attorney’s office for his work on the Trump case in just two years. Not too shabby for a divorce lawyer turned special prosecutor, huh?
Despite the lack of any fines or punishment after being held in contempt, legal experts aren’t painting a pretty picture for Wade. Randall Kessler, an Atlanta divorce lawyer, minced no words, saying, “This is bizarre.” Another legal eagle, Yaniv Heled, chimed in to say that being found in willful contempt is not a good look for Wade.
So, it looks like the drama surrounding Nathan Wade just keeps unraveling. Will his personal and legal troubles overshadow the case against Trump? Only time will tell, but it’s like watching a courtroom drama unfold before our very eyes!
