(94,701 posts)..Trump's team motioned to have her removed from the prosecution because she had a fling or two with another prosecutor. Argument is that money fronted for about five outings compromised the DA.
She maintains any money exchanged between the two was reimbursement due to Wade making travel arrangements for the entire group, and that she reimbursed with cash which she always brings on trips and sometimes keeps in bulk at home for various reasons, from $15k to as little as $500.
She also maintains that Wade never took her anywhere, meaning that the outings were reciprocal like friends and not transactional to the point where he was providing for her; and that she had actually been the one to take him on what she hinted was a health and confidence building outing on his 50th birthday and during his cancer treatment.
Every outing was testified by both to have been made in cash payments.
She and Wade also separately disputed the timeline set by the earlier witness, who did not provide evidence she had the means to know details of their relationship, and said the 'romantic' part began after the indictments and ended in June or August 2023.

Youre confused, Willis maintained. She says she is not on trial; these people, indicating the defendants, are on trial for trying to steal an election.
