Mr. Turley told Mr. Hemmer that he was surprised that Mr. Willis had not yet actively recused himself from prosecuting former President Donald Trump.
“Well, it was painful to watch,” Turley said after watching Bradley's testimony. “It had the look of a hostage tape where he just said, 'I don't know anything.' I couldn't hear anything. If I said anything, I didn't mean it. It’s not like I did it.”
“The problem is, it's getting worse every day. So this new filing has another attorney, a court official, saying, 'Look, I heard that testimony. But I was shocked to hear something quite clearly that was the exact opposite of what was said in court.''Then the situation arises for the judge where there is an ambiguous email.

That's the point,” Turley continued. “I'm very surprised they haven't stepped back. They have an independent professional duty to their office, rightly to the citizens of the county. The Court. Regardless of what they have done or will do, I do not believe they are responsible for it.”
“Wow,” Hemmer said. “We'll find out soon whether Cindy Lee Yeager will be tried in that court. Do you think that will happen or not? Will the judge allow it?”
“I'm just not sure. I wouldn't bet on that,” Turley replied. “I think this judge is ready to make a decision and this drip, drip, drip is going to have to stop. But it's on the record, so he might have to write it down. not.”
