A private investigator wrote that data shows Nathan Wade visited Fani Willis’ home many times before when they said it started.
Former President Donald Trump’s Georgia attorneys hired a private investigator to obtain calls between the Fulton County district attorney and her special counsel, finding they allegedly made more than 2,000 calls and 12,000 texts in 2021, many months before their relationship allegedly started, according to a court filing.
Trump attorneys Steve Sadow and Jennifer Little on Friday filed a court affidavit from a private investigator to provide a text and voice call history for the special counsel, Nathan Wade. Ms. Willis and Mr. Wade have been accused of engaging in an improper and secretive relationship in which Ms. Willis financially benefitted from public funds.
Last week during testimony, the pair acknowledged they had a romantic relationship, asserting that the relationship started after she hired Mr. Wade in the Trump case. Both also denied that Ms. Willis financially benefitted from the arrangement.
The report from the investigator, Charles Mittelstadt, said he used CellHawk, a geo-mapping and analysis program, to report that allegedly “more than 2,000 voice calls and just under 12,000 text messages [were] exchanged over the 11-month period in 2021” between the two. It also included a heat map that “highlights the interaction patterns which demonstrate a prevalence of calls made in the evening hours.”
According to the affidavit submitted to court, it appeared that Mr. Wade and Ms. Willis were communicating frequently before they said their romantic relationship began. Both said it started in 2022, while a witness and former Willis friend, Robin Yeartie, disputed that claim, arguing she saw them romantically involved in 2019, or about two years before Mr. Wade was hired by the district attorney.
The Epoch Times has contacted Mr. Wade’s office and the Fulton County district attorney’s office for comment. “We are required to respond to the filing via the court and we are preparing a response now,” Jeff DiSantis, a spokesman for Ms. Willis, told the Atlanta Journal Constitution newspaper Friday.
The filing suggested that Mr. Wade allegedly made 35 visits to a condo in Hapeville, Georgia, where Ms. Willis had lived, and it alleged that he visited her condo late at night twice and left early in the morning—before their relationship allegedly started. That property was owned by Ms. Yeartie, she testified.
