Could losing Wade be a major setback for the prosecution? Atlanta lawyers tell Newsweek what it could mean for the Trump case.
The prosecution of former President Donald Trump's RICO case is undergoing a major shakeup and likely losing one of its prosecutors, after a highly anticipated order was issued by Judge Scott McAfee on Friday.
'I suspect Wade was never going to be that involved in trial,' Wilson said, adding that the prosecution could lose some 'institutional knowledge' that Wade had garnered during the special-purpose grand jury. But Wilson noted most of that is likely well documented anyway.
