Subsequent motions to disqualify Willis accused her of prejudicing potential jurors with her racially charged commentary, misusing public monies, conflict of interest, coordinating with the Biden White House, giving Wade preferential treatment, and of possibly running afoul of the federal racketeering statute.

Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee ruled on March 15 that Willis could continue overseeing the prosecution of the case so long as Wade resigned his post as special prosecutor — which he ultimately did. McAfee did, however, blast Willis for the "unprofessional manner of [her] testimony during the evidentiary hearing," her "bad choices," her "tremendous lapse in judgment," and her "legally improper" remarks.

McAfee cleared Trump and several of his codefendants to appeal his ruling to the Georgia Court of Appeals. They formally did so last week. The court has fewer than 45 days to make up its mind.

While it's unclear whether disqualification is still on the table, it's clear Willis could still be held accountable for other alleged improprieties.
