- Fani Willis was accused of meeting with Vice President Kamala Harris before indicting Donald Trump, but the meeting was actually a large public event organized by BET.
- Allegations of a romantic relationship between Willis and special prosecutor Nathan Wade have raised conflict of interest concerns, with both acknowledging the relationship but denying any impropriety.
- A new book claims the investigation into Trump began with an illegally recorded phone call, potentially undermining the prosecution's foundation.
