Channel 2 Action News has learned that a temporary agreement has been made between the Fulton County special prosecutor in the Georgia election interference case and his wife in their divorce case.
Special prosecutor Nathan Wade has been accused of having an inappropriate relationship with Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis by one of the codefendants in the election interference case.
Willis hired Wade to lead the team to prosecute former President Donald Trump and others, who are accused of trying to overturn the 2020 election here in Georgia.
A filing in Wade’s divorce case includes credit card statements that show Wade — after he had been hired as a special prosecutor — bought plane tickets in October 2022 for him and Willis to travel to Miami and bought tickets in April to San Francisco in their names.
The last-minute apparent settlement comes less than 24 hours before a hearing in the case that could have included sworn testimony by Wade.
The settlement also appears to prevent the release of any records about the allegations between him and Willis that could have arisen at the hearing.
