ATLANTA — Fani Willis, the Fulton County district attorney investigating Donald Trump's attempts to overturn the 2020 election in Georgia, shared a racist threat she had received as her office prepares to make charging decisions in the probe. Willis forwarded the threat, noting it was one of many, in an email to Fulton County commissioners that was obtained by NBC News. In the email, Willis urged commissioners to “stay alert” and “stay safe” ahead of potential indictments this month., included a copy of a profane threat Willis says she received last Friday, calling her the n-word and a “Jim Crow Democrat whore.”
She describes the vulgar email as “not very unique. In fact, it is pretty typical and what I have come to expect." “I am also aware of some equally ignorant voice mails coming in both to the county customer service and my office. I expect to see many more over the next 30 days,” she wrote.
