[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds unethical to hire your relatively inexperienced boyfriend to head a major prosecution of a former POTUS, but I'm not sure it's illegal. They are not married, so he is not a relative, which would be nepotism. She may have had trouble finding someone she trusted to take the position.
But optics...
It she's the cause of his divorce...
It has no bearing on the evidence against Trump, which is massive, but again, optics...
If they are romantically involved, she will have to dismiss him. There may be ethics rules in her workplace that prohibit workplace relationships?? 
However, the garbage that he's paying for vacations with her using his salary, well, huh? How else is he going to pay for vacations? I pay for vacations with my salary. I assume he earns his salary. There is no allegation that he doesn't. He can spend it as he wants. [/quote]

Here is more information about why it may well have been not only unethical, but illegal for her to hire him.....

The bombshell public filing alleged that special prosecutor Nathan Wade, a private attorney, paid for lavish vacations he took with Willis using the Fulton County funds his law firm received. County records show that Wade, who has played a prominent role in the election interference case, has been paid nearly $654,000 in legal fees since January 2022. [b]The DA authorizes his compensation.[/b]

Roman’s lawyer, Ashleigh Merchant, said she reviewed the case file in Wade’s ongoing divorce proceedings at the Superior Court Clerk’s Office and made copies of certain documents. But the case file was later improperly sealed because no court hearing was held as required by law, the motion said.

The motion said the checks sent to Wade from Fulton County and his subsequent purchase of vacations for Willis could amount to honest services fraud, a federal crime in which a vendor gives kickbacks to an employer. It is also possible this could be prosecuted under the federal racketeering statute, the motion said

Willis and Wade, the motion contends, “have been engaged in an improper, clandestine personal relationship during the pendency of this case, which has resulted in the special prosecutor, and, in turn, the district attorney, profiting significantly from this prosecution at the expense of the taxpayers.”

A problem with Wade’s appointment is that it was not approved by the Fulton board of commissioners as required by law, the motion said. The motion also questions Wade’s credentials, contending he has never prosecuted a felony case. (Wade was an assistant solicitor for Cobb County in 1999. The office handles misdemeanor cases.)
