Is the hearing over or are they picking back up tomorrow?

It sure as hell is if her lover, who she got a lucrative contract for, was wining and dinning her using a county credit card. She produced no proof other than her own assertions that she paid back these expenses. And even if she did, the fact that she had this romantic relationship with the special prosecutor she appointed taints the entire prosecution.

groceries (and even then, it's not exactly easy).


The cashier rings up my groceries, I hand her cash, she hands me change & a receipt, take my groceries and head home. It's a fairly easy process. Not sure your difficulty with it.

I can post a how to video if you need.

She’s also traveling with large amounts of cash out of the country. I’m not sure the number but generally you have to declare such things. I know I can’t hop on a flight with 10g’s in my pocket and head off to the Bahamas and not have questions asked.

Hell, you can't have $1000 in your car or on your person if you are stopped by the cops.

This isn't a criminal proceeding. There is no burden of proof. The mere presence of malfeasance is adequate to remove Willis from her position.

This isn’t a serious post. You’re not a serious person.

They may have stopped fricking last year but Wade certainly went balls deep in her today just like old times with the cash testimony.

As I posted earlier, paying for stuff in cash is not easy these days, unless you're talking small things like groceries (and even then, it's not exactly easy)

I understand...it's not the norm and not the easiest way, but it's done. Ever been audited by the IRS? One of the questions they ask you is...do you have a cash hoard...specifically if they might believe you have underreported your income on your return.

Most grocery stores I deal with have limited aisles with a register with cash.

No, it's not done by people with her job and salary. The guy who owns a small landscaping company? Sure. Your friendly neighborhood weed dealer? Certainly. The Fulton County DA?

Now try your scenario with large amounts of cash. Go ahead and try to get 500 or a 1000 cash back from the grocery store. frick it, try to get 200 back. It’s easy up to the point that it’s not.

@shipwreckedcrew

As a GENERAL PROPOSITION -- when a Judge is inclined to rule against a particular participant, that Judge allows the participant to say pretty much anything and everything he/she wants. It's called "protecting the record."

What that does is cut-off the losing party from being able to claim "You didn't give me a chance to say everything I wanted to say, blah, blah, blah."

All it really does is eat up time, but the extra time spent in the hearing is a small fraction of what would be required if the judge was reversed and the matter had to be done over again.

I suspect that if Judge McAfee was of the opinion that Willis' conduct was simply unprofessional and unethical, but not disqualifying -- taking the worst case spin on everything presented by the defendants -- he would not be allowing his to grind on with Willis on the stand.

But to let her say everything she wants to say, he has to let the questioning continue.

I'm just messing with ya, I know what you meant.

I've had cashiers look at me like I'm an alien when I've pulled out cash before.

The funny thing is both Fani and Wade admitted they had ZERO evidence of her reimbursements of thousands of dollars.

She has no proof of payment. He has no proof of deposit/receipt.

But we should trust them.

Also, what is the acceptable dollar number in kickbacks that you think elected officials should be able to receive for awarding a government contract?

Kickbacks? This is not kickbacks...you're talking about two people dating...one paid for something, and the other says they repaid their half...kickback is an amount of money paid to someone illegally...what is illegal here?
