Fulton County’s Ethics Policy Overhaul Complicates DA Willis’s Case Against Trump

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis faces new challenges as the county commission overhauls its ethics and anti-nepotism policies.

These changes, affecting elected officials receiving county funds, come amid Willis’s high-profile case against former President Donald Trump.

The policy updates aim to ensure consistent integrity standards for all officials. Notably, the revisions could lead to renewed complaints against Willis, who previously faced allegations related to her relationship with a prosecutor in the Trump case.

Though past complaints may not be reopened, the updated policies bolster ethical scrutiny and accountability for Fulton County’s officials. Willis’s ongoing investigation into Trump’s actions surrounding Georgia’s 2020 election results continues to draw attention and scrutiny.
