Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has publicly hit back at critics as she faces allegations of having an affair with a prosecutor from her election fraud case against former President Donald Trump.
In a speech on Sunday at a historic Atlanta church, the Georgia prosecutor said she was “flawed” and “imperfect”.
Ms Willis is accused of having an improper relationship with an attorney she has called a “great friend”.
She blamed the criticisms on race.
It was the first time Ms Willis, Fulton County’s first black female district attorney, made any public comment even hinting at the allegations since they first appeared in a court filing on 8 January.
In the filing, lawyers for Michael Roman, one of the 19 co-defendants in the Georgia election interference case, accused Ms Willis of engaging “in a personal, romantic relationship” with a lead prosecutor on the case.
Mr Roman asked the judge to dismiss his indictment, saying in the filing that Ms Willis “personally benefited” from the relationship. He also said the judge should disqualify Ms Willis from further prosecutions because she allegedly defrauded the public with an “intentional failure” to disclose her relationship.
The lawyers alleged the special prosecutor hired by Ms Willis’ office, Nathan Wade, had a “lack of relevant experience” but has been paid roughly $650,000 (£510,705) in legal fees since being appointed.
And, according to the court filing, Mr Wade and Ms Willis took lavish vacations together on cruises and to places like California and the Caribbean.
Mr Trump’s attorney said in court on Friday that they are considering joining the complaint.
