BREAKING: Fani Willis’ Lover Served By Federal Marshals After Manhunt

Published

The long arm of the law has caught up with Fani Willis’s lover Nathan Wade, who authorities said suddenly disappeared after receiving a congressional subpoena demanding his testimony.

U.S. Marshals found Wade, a former prosecutor in the Fulton County District Attorney’s Office, was located late Thursday and served with papers more than a week after a U.S. House committee attempted to do the same. The Gateway Pundit reported that Wade suddenly appeared after news broke about a looming manhunt. He now will be forced to testify before the House Judiciary Committee as part of its probe into possible mismanagement of federal funds in Willis’s office.

Earlier this week, a spokesman for the committee said it was “extremely unusual” for a witness to go missing, especially one of Wade’s prominence. Since being forced to resign from Willis’s office, Wade has taken public interviews in a bid to rebuild his name, stating that nepotism played no role in his hiring and insisting he and the Trump prosecutor are no longer a pair. That ruse has become more difficult to maintain since the arrest of Willis’s daughter earlier this month when police body camera footage found Wade at her side as the Democrat arrived at the scene of the crime.

“The committee issued the subpoena on Friday, attempted to serve the subpoena to Nathan Wade’s lawyer, who declined, and subsequently the committee tried to serve the subpoena via email through Nathan Wade himself, never heard back. As a result, the committee had to use the assistance of the U.S. Marshals, who have also not been able to find Nathan Wade,” Russell Dye, a spokesman for the committee, told Newsweek on Wednesday evening.

Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan (R-OH) ripped Wade last Friday for abiding by recommendations from his lawyer that an appearance was optional. “The eleventh-hour intervention from District Attorney Willis does not excuse your failure to appear for your transcribed interview,” the conservative lawmaker wrote in a public letter. Now that House Republicans have Wade in full view, they are expected to pepper him with questions about political motivations by Willis and others to charge former President Donald Trump with election interference.
Also at play is the potential diversion of federal funds to support the Trump case. Whistleblowers previously in Willis’s office have since come forward to tell Rep. Jordan that a grant for supporting gang diversion programs was instead diverted to pay Wade and others on the Trump case. Wade ultimately collected up to $700,000 in taxpayer dollars over two years before departing the office.
As pressure has ramped up on Willis, the Democratic prosecutor has lashed out at Trump and critics she has accused of being racially motivated to attack her. Willis, who is Black, is also being challenged by Trump’s lawyers for “racial animus” after she condemned Trump for mocking her first name. Defense attorneys are seeking to dismiss the case, and most legal observers believe regardless of the outcome Willis’s case is all but dead.
