FANI WILLIS TOLD TO RECUSE HERSELF

FROM TRUMP CASE OR FACE JAIL TIME

FOR ILLEGAL WIRETAPPING

One of Donald Trump's co-defendants in his Georgia election interference case has threatened to launch legal action against Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis if she "does not recuse herself from this case by noon on Monday."

In a post on X, formerly Twitter, Harrison Floyd wrote: "I don't want to put a black woman in Jail. But if Fani Willis does not recuse herself from this case by noon on Monday, I may have no other choice than to pursue all lawful remedies. Make Fulton Great Again."

Floyd posted part of an article purportedly from the Atlanta Journal-Constitution suggesting that Willis' office shared a recording of a conversation Willis had with his attorney, Carlos J.R. Salvado, in an unrelated criminal case in Maryland.

Floyd suggested that Willis' office may have violated the Maryland Wiretap Act, under which it is unlawful to record any private in-person conversation or telephone communication unless you are a party to the conversation and have the permission of all of the parties.

Under Maryland's Wiretap Act, recording a private conversation without consent from both parties is punishable by up to five years in prison, a fine of up to $10,000, or both.

Newsweek contacted the Fulton County District Attorney's office for comment outside of normal working hours.

Christopher Kachouroff, one of Floyd's attorneys, made the same accusation against Willis on Tuesday during an interview with Phil Holloway.

Referring to Willis he said: "She did reach out to us, one of my colleagues in Maryland, and was rude, abrupt with him on the phone, and he was dealing with the Maryland case and I was dealing with the Georgia case, and she ended up recording him."

Holloway asked Kachouroff whether he was suggesting Willis had illegally recorded the call, and he replied: "Oh yeah, it's a felony in Maryland."

In a separate X post on Wednesday, Floyd posted: "Fani Willis ILLEGALLY recorded a [phone emoji] call with my lawyer.

"Its a felony! She is a DEI [diversity, equality and inclusion] thug with a law license. Will anyone in GA stand up to her?"

Floyd, the former leader of Black Voices for Trump, is the only one of Trump's co-defendants to have been jailed in the Georgia case, between August 24 and 30, when a $100,000 bond was covered.

In November 2023, Judge Scott McAfee rejected prosecutors' bid to get his bail revoked following what they claimed was a "pattern of intimidation."
