District Attorney Fani Willis attacked the defense attorney who brought allegations against Willis of an improper relationship with her lead prosecutor on the case against Donald Trump and others as being a liar.
“I very much want to be here,” Willis said.
“Ms Merchant’s interests are contrary to democracy, not to mine,” Willis said.
Willis attacked defense attorney Ashleigh Merchant as she began to question Willis during the hearing, saying that questions she was asking were based on lies.
“It’s ridiculous that you lied on Monday and yet here we still are,” Willis said of a hearing earlier this week on efforts by Willis to stop Thursday’s hearing from occurring.
