Washington — Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has reemerged in the spotlight after her office charged 19 co-defendants, including Donald Trump, regarding efforts by the former president and his allies to overturn the 2020 presidential election results. If you violated the law, you’re going to be charged.”Besides leading the election subversion probe, Willis has also brought anti-corruption indictments against Grammy-winning rapper Young Thug and his associates. According to a South Atlanta Magazine profile, she worked in the private sector for five years before becoming assistant district attorney for Fulton County in 2001. She pushed to secure additional funding from the Fulton County Commission to hire 55 staff members for the district attorney’s office, including 15 attorneys and 15 investigators. In an email last month to Fulton County officials, Willis shared a racist and sexualized message she received and said similar obscene messages had been left via voicemail.
