BREAKING 🚨🚨

Here are the key texts between Attorney's Ashleigh Merchant and Terrence Bradley that are at issue in the #FaniWillis disqualification battle

They show a congenial collaborative effort between the two as Merchant attempted to investigate facts about the affair

The "Chris" referenced here is Chris Campbell, a law partner of Nathan Wade

More references to #FaniWills trips with Nathan Wade

Bradley says "they took many trips to Florida"

"Why she (#FaniWillis) would hire him (Wade) is insane"

"Yep"

"Just date, don't hire him"

🚨

"Do you think it started before she hired him?"

"Absolutely"
"It started when she left the DAs Office (as an ADA to run for office) and was judge in South Fulton"

Merchant: "I'm almost done with my motion.."

Bradley: "Ok..happy hunting lol"

Merchant: "Has [Wade ever prosecuted a felony?"

Bradley: "Never in his life has he prosecuted a felony"

Bradley: "Add me to footnote 15 and how much I made"

This implies a friendly, collaborative effort to make sure the motion was as powerful and accurate as possible

M: "Anything that isn't accurate?"

B: "Looks good"

Bradley said the entire motion "looks good"

M: "How will they (Willis and Wade) react to this (the motion alleging the affair)?"

B: "they will deny it"

"Arrogance"

Bradley says the original security detail for #FaniWillis should be subpoenaed

Would they have relevant information about the beginning of the affair?

"Can you think of anyone else who can confirm (the #FaniWillis affair)?"

"Her kids, her command staff... her administrative assistant"

Re: DA's office employees who may know about the #FaniWillis affair

Bradley: "All may lie"

"Daysha knows... That's one of her besties"

Bradley: "Subpoena them all"

Merchant: "I am nervous, this is huge"

Bradley: "You are huge... You will be fine...you are one of the best lawyers I know... go be great"

Here's where Bradley helps Merchant ID Robin Yeartie

"She hired a girlfriend, like a bestie, it was her place"

Referring to the Hapeville Condo that is the subject of the cell location date issue

Yeartie testified the affair started in 2019

Merchant: "Does (#FaniWillis) know about the Sonya Allen affair?"

Bradley: "Not sure if Fani knows about him and Sonya"

M: "How did Sonya feel about Fani taking her man?"

B: "I'm not sure how she felt or feels..her and Nathan are extremely close now... it started romantic but when I left it was more brother sisterly... but occasionally they would mess around"

"I hated her pandering to the black church..."

M: "Do you think she is going to deny it?"

B: "Too many people saw their interactions"

On being subpoenaed in this matter, Bradley says "I'm ok with it"
