Fani Willis Gets Award From Democrats as She Prosecutes Donald Trump
Fulton County District Attorney
Fani Willis received an award from
Democrats on Friday night as she prosecutes the Georgia election interference case against former President
Donald Trump.
Trump, the presumed GOP presidential nominee, and 18 co-defendants
were indicted in August 2023 for allegedly conspiring to overturn President
Joe Biden's 2020 election victory in Georgia. The former president has pleaded not guilty to all charges and has claimed the case is politically motivated.
On Friday night, Willis was honored with the Woman of Influence award at the Cobb County Democratic Committee annual fundraising gala. The gala serves as the largest fundraiser for local candidates running for office, the committee's acting chair, Essence Johnson, said, according to local
Fox affiliate WAGA-TV.
Newsweek reached out to Willis' office and Trump's spokesperson via email for comment.
