Trump co-defendant accused of seeking 'salaciousness for a tabloid' in Fani Willis probe

Fulton County special prosecutor Nathan Wade fired back at one of Donald Trump's co-defendants for seeking bank records.

In a filing on Thursday, Wade told Fulton County Judge Scott McAfee that co-defendant Mike Roman was using a subpoena to find dirt on him.

"This Court's job is not to help Roman and his attorney sift through the personal records of the prosecuting attorney in hopes of finding something they could spin into salaciousness for a tabloid," Wade wrote. "In short, nothing would be —or could be gained from allowing production of these records."

Last month, an attorney for Roman accused Wade and Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis of an improper relationship and financial gain.

Roman subpoenaed Willis, Wade, and others at the District Attorney's Office and requested documents, including bank records, from Wade and his law firm.

Roman and Trump are among 19 people charged in a conspiracy to overturn the 2020 presidential election in Georgia.
