Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis told reporters this week she is the only DA in the country with enough "courage" to prosecute former President Donald Trump in the Georgia election interference case.
During an Easter event in College Park Saturday for families in need, Willis, 52, spoke to the media for the first time since a judge ruled she could remain on the case.
"There’s one district attorney in the state – and really around the country – that has had the courage to do this, and she continues to do it," Willis told FOX 5 Atlanta. "The case landed in Fulton County, not by anything that I did, but by the actions of others, and when a case lands in my jurisdiction, I’m going to prosecute it, and that’s the end of that."
Defense attorneys have accused Willis of mishandling the case, alleging that she hired special prosecutor Nathan Wade to profit from the Trump prosecution through their romantic relationship.
Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee has said there wasn't sufficient evidence to prove those claims but rebuked Willis for what he called a "tremendous lapse in judgment."
Judge McAfee has allowed attorneys for Trump's codefendants to appeal his ruling that she could stay on the case after the withdrawal of special prosecutor Wade.
In remarks to Atlanta News First, Willis implored the media to focus on "the charges, the facts, and the law and leave all the drama behind."
"I’m 52 years old. It really ain’t that interesting if I’m in a relationship or not. If just ain’t. It’s not cool to anybody, and it ain’t that sensational of a story," Willis said.
Willis also told CNN that the prosecution against Trump hasn’t been delayed by proceedings over her romantic relationship.

She really thinks she’s gonna get away with this. Wade was WAAAAAY overpaid. And they both lied.
Judge Scott McAfee, you will rue the day that you left her on the case. She will turn around and throw you under the bus one day. Nice little judgeship you had there for a while, too bad whitey……..
The interesting things are...Like Daddy was a Black Panther and taught you how to launder money by using cash...
Her ‘courage’ to prosecute Trump had nothing to do with it she had the democrat party backing her.
Her constant remarks about only she can try Trump suggests to me grounds for DQ and an eventual appeal if the case goes forward..
Other than she lied about it.

I'm afraid that if McAfee doesn't disqualify Willis, she will become "a woman scorned" on steroids. I would expect an "exonerated" Fani Willis to go scorched earth on Trump and everyone else.
Dumb as a rock
Letitia and Fani can hold each other’s beer.
There are definitely some people who should be going to prison for their crimes. Trump has committed no crime at all but the Marxist Activist DA’s and Judge’s have. Justice would be at least a 20 year prison sentence for each of them.
Alas, our justice system is severely broken, maybe beyond repair.
Who names their kid after a rear portion of the human anatomy...the portion that surrounds the orifice where feces is excreted?
Fanny Hole Willis = Arrogant b*tch!
Agree she thinks she is the law in the court room deranged issues.
SHe campaigned on propsecuting Truimp. Trump has committed no crime. SHe had t9o fabricate a crime to prosecute him.
This is the very essence of malicious prosecution. I’d say Letitia baby is in serious legal jeopardy, and so is the State of New York.
Before this is over they will be paying Trump BIG MONEY.Frankly.
Fani Willis says it takes courage to perjure myself before the court and to fire my lackey ass loser lover.
When her various "side piece" boyfriends aren't using her naked back as a card table, and a place to set their beers...
She’s the intended result of the so-called “civil” “rights” “movement”. She’s exactly the sort of person Booker T. Washington warned us about.
She’s a regular profile in cur-itch.
