Fani Willis Prosecutor Gets Into Shouting Match With Judge


This just in: more courtroom drama for Fani Willis.

What a surprise…

This time, it was Fani Willis’ prosecutor — Fulton County Assistant DA Adriane Love — who created a spectacle.

In court on Wednesday, Love’s argument with the judge devolved into a full on shouting match, with Love going berserk and screaming at the judge.

Watch the crazy moment here for yourself:

How unprofessional.

The shouting match occurred during the trial of rapper Young Thug, whom Fani Willis is accusing of being the head of an Atlanta-based street gang.

Fox News has more:

A Georgia prosecutor from Fulton County District Attorney Fanni Willis’ office got into a shouting match Wednesday with the judge overseeing the trial of rapper Young Thug as the pair argued over evidentiary matters.

Chief Deputy District Attorney Adriane Love and Fulton County Judge Ural Glanville got into a heated shouting match when the judge ruled that the evidence Love wanted to introduce would be excluded.

“Why didn’t we file this stuff months ago and let’s wind it out and air it out at that point in time,” Glanville told the defense before asking Love about the matter.

The judge asked Love if prosecutors had discussions about the evidence before excluding the material. As Love began voicing her frustration, Glanville said: “Well then you all should have gotten yourself together beforehand.”

“Have a seat, madam. Have a seat,” he said after telling court officers to summon the jury, which was not present during the exchange. “You better exclude that and next time, make sure you’re prepared.”

Love argued that her team tried discussing the evidence with the defense.

“Oh it’s going to be inadmissible right now,” Glanville replied. “I am not going to have any more discussion about this, madam.”

“Judge, we talked to them this morning about that! And I attempted to talk to them earlier this week!” Love shouted. “Your honor, so the court punishes the state because (of) the defense?”

“I’m not punishing anybody,” the judge replied. “But prior preparation prevents poor performance.”

Newsweek added:

A lead prosecutor from Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis‘ office got into a shouting match with the judge presiding over the YSL trial involving rapper Young Thug.

Assistant District Attorney Adriane Love had a heated exchange with Judge Ural Glanville on Wednesday afternoon after the judge sided with the defense and ruled that the evidence Love wanted to introduce would be excluded.

As Love began vocalizing her frustrations with the ruling, Glanville told her, “Well then you all should have gotten yourself together beforehand,” before telling the court to summon the jury. The judge then turned back to Love, saying, “Have a seat, madam. Have a seat. You better exclude that and next time, make sure you’re prepared.”

Before Love could begin her objections, Glanville cut her off, telling the prosecutor, “I’m not going to do this anymore, I’m just not. We are starting right now.”

Love is the lead prosecutor in the RICO case against Young Thug, whose real name is Jeffrey Williams, and 27 others. Willis announced the sweeping indictment in May 2022, in which she accuses Williams of being the kingpin of Young Slime Life (YSL), an Atlanta-based street gang affiliated with the Bloods gang.

What do you think?

Should Fani Willis’ prosecutor have been held in contempt of court over this?
