    On Wednesday, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis revealed that pro-Trump attorney Lin Wood is a “witness for the state” in the Georgia election case.

    According to CNN, the reference to Wood was buried in a new court filing by the DA’s office that raised potential conflicts of interest for six defense attorneys because they previously represented witnesses or other defendants in related proceedings.

    CNN continues:

    Wood was previously subpoenaed by prosecutors in the Georgia probe but his status as a witness for the state was not previously known.

    “Lin Wood is a witness for the State in the present case,” the court filing says.

    As a witness, Wood could be subject to cross-examination by his former attorney and co-counsel who is now representing former Justice Department official Jeffrey Clark in the Georgia RICO probe – creating a potential conflict of interest.

    Willis, a prominent MAGA supporter, filed a series of lawsuits after then-President Donald Trump lost the 2020 election which ultimately lost in court.

    1. As I finished reading this article, I was left more confused than before I began to read it. At the end of the article, the author, Madeleine Jackson, indicated that Willis is a prominent MAGA supporter! The only Willis in the story is Fani Willis! What have I missed?
