Nathan Wade’s former divorce attorney and law partner was heard muttering, “Oh dang” to himself when presented with potentially damning evidence about his ex-client’s relationship timeline as he took the stand in Fulton County, Ga., District Attorney Fani Willis’ corruption trial Tuesday.
The witness, Terrence Bradley, was presented with a series of text messages he sent to a defense attorney in which he was asked if he believed the couple’s relationship began before Willis appointed Wade to lead the state’s investigation of former President Donald Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election results in November 2021, according to Business Insider.
“Absolutely,” Bradley responded in the message to defense attorney Ashleigh Merchant, according to phone records read in court.
Bradley had previously denied knowing about the relationship until he was presented with the texts.
