[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was wondering why the Judge was so subservient to Fani in his own courtroom.

Now it makes sense.[/quote]

Are you serious?  [/quote]

"McAfee was an assistant district attorney in the Barrow County, Georgia, Piedmont Judicial Circuit.[8] He joined the office of the district attorney in Fulton County, Georgia, in April 2015, initially working on the early stages of criminal cases.[9] He later was promoted to working as a prosecutor in the complex trial division, which was then headed by prosecutor Fani Willis, who was later elected as Fulton County district attorney.[i][u][1][10] McAfee was eventually promoted to senior assistant district attorney in the major case division, where he prosecuted felony cases including armed robbery and murder.[5][1]

So somehow your wiki quote makes him "subservient" to her?  Have you ever met a lawyer?  A prosecutor? Or a judge?

Or anyone?[/quote]

Yes. I have practiced civil litigation for 19 years.[/quote]

Then you know that judges are not subservient.

Knock it off.[/quote]

Most judges would not have tolerated her behavior in the courtroom - from showing up unannounced to arguing with attorneys while on the stand. 
He admonished her twice, but she deserved much more criticism from the judge.

[quote]Things quickly went off the rails. Willis didn't act much like a traditional witness and was more like a prosecutor, arguing with the defense attorneys, raising objections, making legal arguments and even having exchanges with the judge. She even raised her voice at one point.

This led to a few rebukes from McAfee, who urged her and other attorneys in the courtroom to maintain "professionalism" and to not "talk over each other."

Willis repeatedly accused some of the defense attorneys of peddling lies - before and after the judge's admonishment.

"You've lied in this. ... I think you lied right here," Willis said to attorney Ashleigh Merchant, pointing to copies of filings that raised accusations of self-dealing and nepotism.[/quote]
