Georgia judge warns of possible future gag order against Willis

In his repeated rebukes of the district attorney’s actions, Fulton County Judge Scott McAfee said Fani Willis’s comments at an Atlanta-area church in January about the case were “legally improper” and warned of the potential for a future gag order against Willis. #CNN #News

It's the second time she's gotten over her skis with public statements. She needs to learn how to shut up. This case is too important.

[cachecow]

Only defendants can make inflammatory statements!

[elizabethflynr]

That judge is muddying up the waters and delaying justice. That’s a whole lot worse than Ms. Willis, trying to fight back a tiny bit over this frivolous nonsense.

[esynctu]

Get him to court try him jail him ordinary citizens would be in jail now

[DorettaEaster-Sykes]

You talking about what Fani Willis is saying but saying nothing about what the defense said in front of the committee last week when she voiced her opinions!! All I say is be fair to both sides!

[tonyintrevado]

Would the GAG order on Willis be as enforced as it has been on Trump!

[gihgbkj]

He should have warned the defense attorneys of that gag order.
If he put a gag order on one then it should be for all attorneys, and if they go to the senate then they should be disqualified.

[sophieclerc]

They speak too much about Willis and not enough about the criminal on trial.

[jamiescot]

Really, really strict GAG orders on both sides. You know trump will break his.

[williamculbertson]

DA Fani Willis should be allowed to publicly defend herself and her

[alexanderericson]

Yes she is fighting a person that lies for a living. But she can't fight back even a tiny bit, without being gagged.

You can't have it both ways you cant admit to the system being corrupt and in the same breath say that any attempt to fight lies is inappropriate. People that ship left like 5 years ago. You can't have two rule books one for democrats and one for republican, and this is becoming so extremely obvious in these cases.

You want to live in two realities at the same time. But that is not justice, if the defendant can lie about her on a daily basis she sure can say that it's motivated by race.
By a guy that used to scam black people in his own businesses. I mean come on?

[loudmanCA]

Yeah! Let’s hold prosecutors to a higher standard than a former president… yikes

[Brakdayton]

Seems there’s one rule for the elite and another for ordinary folk.

[stevennichols]

It doesn't matter, as all of the slander that has occurred against her from the attorneys and their team. She could have taken the higher ground, but she chose to meet them on their fair ground. So, i believe race is always a factor here in America since we have done so little to properly address it. We are still debating if it even exists, let alone how to remedy it. Help us. This case was a waste of taxpayers money against her.

[shawncolefdi]

THE GAG SHOULD BE ON BOTH SIDES IF SO ORDERED

[joekerr]

In Singapore, a DA like Willis would be charged for corruption and fired !

[thorspinky]

Such a smart and qualified bee see she is. 😂

[stevecarter]

Fani Atlanta Loves you we are proud of you

[asetroyal]

Even when they try to be fair they just can't! LMAO AND NO.. THIS MAKES HISTORY!!

[hollyh]

what about hobbit the attorney who publicly declares the judges are biased, the courts are crooked after she loses a case?
