Incompetence & corruption at every level in Fulton County. From Fani Willis, Adrianne Love, Hylton, records custodian. Why public employees feel they can play these games without being accountable is beyond me
If this attitude and mentality of the DA’s office doesn’t tell you that you need to clean house in Fulton Co come November, I don’t know what will. Vote Fani and this corruption out!!! If they don’t follow the law and show transparency, why do you allow her to tell you that you have to? This is nasty work!
He was so unprofessional and rude! You can tell a Fani Willis employee! This judge is a disgrace, just like Glanville! Keep doing you Ashley! Justice will prevail!

The law isn't on her side. The judge agrees she didn't follow the law re: serving subpoenas. She seriously erred in making her public records requests and often duplicates requests. Guess what? The law says duplicate requests can be ignored. The law isn't on her side.

Ashley Merchant has been nothing but professional. She had to sue to get documents that should be readily available to everyone. And she still hasnt got the document. Fani Willis was stealing money and that's what those documents will prove.

Someone needs to get Miss Willis under control because she is so far gone and to think that her employees are allowed to have this behavior is unreal
Every judge and employee is absolutely despicable! First of all, talking to an attorney say you specifically refuse to honor to do your job based on their personality is beyond unprofession. Second, this judge is despicable letting these state employees act like this - tax payers pay his wages. He needs to do his fucking job!
This DA office and all of them should be fired. Bc if this is what we’re dealing with as the public, to this guy and all this attitude , I can see that trickling to his employees.
Combative and defensive, trying to deflect everything, sorry but his a bad liar!!! They obviously tried to prep him but poor guy could keep his cool, we all know who he is protecting 😂😂😂
Hilarious that 2nd defense lawyer complains that the Merchant Law firm seemed to get testy when the requested documents were not produced for 9 months despite multiple requests and efforts on their part to get them from the office LEGALLY REQUIRED TO MAINTAIN AND PRODUCE THEM upon request within THREE DAYS.
Only in racist Atlanta is this acceptable -- and I bet Fawny wins again -- she'll probably run for mayor or governor -- then everyone can say "axe the question" -- so disgusting to watch the ghetto work
@@ms.t.7319 no one understands anything about Fulton county. if he would have simply provided the documents, as required by GA code, any Communications, contracts, and data product of an active contract not to exceed years of mandated retention. This cost of Burdon with tax payers would not exist. The thought that tap dancing around words from any agency that uses our taxes and avoiding responsibility is not acceptable.
Mr Bond, you are a public employee. Let me help, A request comes in. You forward that request to the appropriate agency or person. They (DA) send all you all they have at some time. You receive, catalog the records and certify the process as requested and complete. Then forward the records to the requestor. Pretty Simple. Your office doesn't decide relevance, what to include or anything else. You are a compliance officer and point of contact nothing more. You are a smart man and would be well advised to simply and faithfully do your job. Look to the future young man, the feds will be visiting Fulton County in the near future and given all that has come to light regarding to DA's office you would be well advised to stay in your lane. Unfortunately, the Merchant Law firm won't be available to you if you should need an excellent lawyer. Good luck
No, I went last year, they were fairly kind. Prosecution and judge that is. Everything I’ve seen outside my personal experience is disgusting and reminds me of Tarrant County Texas and how they are MORE corrupt and biased than here but it’s still bad. The Bass family owns Fort Worth city council and the court/prosecution office. Tay K didn’t get a fair trial, my friends didn’t get a fair trial. 75% of my community gets unfair trials and outside of justice system it’s just as bad as we are stonewalled.
The judge seems to be acting on behalf of Fulton County, which is absolutely ridiculous. Also, Mr. Bond must be Fani's son. He is confrontational, disrespectful, and a disgrace to his position. Mrs. Merchant is an amazing lawyer and outclassed everyone in that courtroom.
Can't like this hearing, too frustrating to listen to defense deflect and deny. LAWSUIT should follow based on Fulton County FAILING to create and preserve records required by law.
Why does the judge allow this lawyer for the defense repeat that they were not served when they had curtesy emails with attachments notifying them of the need to be in court today (after the judge appointed today in public for the hearing) and the LAW requires delivery of the subpoena by certified mail return receipt requested and THAT WAS DONE.
Between this, the YSL trial, hiring her boo thang for the Trump case then getting on the stand & talking about grey goose….I need to see some MPRE test scores, Professional Responsibility course grades and character and fitness certificates because why are these licensed attorneys being allowed to carry on like this? In my jurisdiction they would be snatching bar licenses. This is embarrassing. The level of unprofessionalism & unmitigated gall is astounding. Keep pressing forward Ashleigh for the sake of our profession. Fani & her employees are a disgrace in my opinion. Dear public please know that there are attorneys out there that operate with professionalism, dignity and respect.
Omg that YSL trial is a mess. This 50yr old white lady got soooo tired of the lying and argumentative prosecution.. i would have let that man go. Bothering us with 15 yr old car thefts and tweets and song lyrics.
Actually, he was amazing. He knows his job. He understands the public records law. He understands and is able to explain the process and what happens. Best part, he has admitted when he made a mistake. This all cld have been resolved over a phone conversation and maybe a brief clarification meeting. The real issus here is why can't Ms. merchant properly make valid public records request pursuant to law and why can't Ms. Merchant serve a subpoena pursuant to GA law? Cld have been resolved without litigation imo.
He’s got the arrogant “Fani slouch” going on. So obvious that the DA office doesn’t have all the required records and/or don’t want what they do have to be made public, in total defiance and disregard of the law. Wade admitted on the stand he didn’t have proof of work as relates to the invoices for which he was paid; he said the work was “in his head”. The former employee testified that the youth gang prevention grant money was spent on swag and rebranding, which she said included everything from pens to tee shirts with Fani’s as name… and Fani fired her after she brought the misuse of funds to Fani.
It is SOooo scary that this is the guy who holds the position as the “Open Records Officer”! The more questions he’s asked by Ashley, the more confused everyone becomes! 🤦🏾♀️ 😵💫🤯
@@SwizzleDripFunny how she is one of the one's who brought charges against Trump and the most famous sentence of hers/there's is "Let's be clear"! Harris is the Mother of all of them and explains why it's one thing after another that leads to nowhere with all of them. They can't be CLEAR!!!
He was clearly hostile the entire time and clearly put in almost no effort to actually accomplish the open record request from Merchant ! The judge also appears to be assisting the state in its efforts to prove he put forth a reasonable attempt in meeting his due diligence in compliance with the jobs responsibilities. “LET ME BE CLEAR”It is so obvious that he is negligent and even deceptive in compliance for the open records request and all of his response to Mrs. Merchants questioning about her request!! Again the smell of mendacity overwhelms the air in Fulton County courts. Where’s the INTEGRITY that these supposedly honorable citizens maintain??? Poor example and they should be all be ashamed and embarrassed.
This is acceptable as a witness judge?! This is a public servant and the taxpayers are paying for this?! Unacceptable he is obligated to give the taxpayers what they are entitled to not assume things were sent without checking, not send responses based on what he thinks, but to provide public owned documents for services they pay for, and certainly not act like a toddler and be rude and disrespectful as a paid public servant PERIOD! There needs to be some accountability and checking of what is being sent to the requests and that is on him as the director of this department and Fani at the end of the day and they didn’t do their jobs and what they are legally responsible for!
This is the perfect example of ignorance in the workplace. I left my prior position because I worked with a room full of people that acted like this gross man and entire DA office and was scared it would pull me in and cost me my job and credibility. When I say this can spread and people see it as the norm… scary.
Why do so many lawyers in America mispronounce the simple word “ask”?Very clear that Dexter thinks Ashley Merchant is a troublemaker and a liar and because of this judgement made, that isn’t his to make, he has breached his obligations at law fundamentally obstructing and dismissing legitimate requests. As the offspring of three generations of lawyer two barristers one solicitor….. never in my life and I’m over 50 have I seen a lawyer behave as belligerently ( oh maybe Fani) in a court room as Mr Dexter did today? In my opinion, he doesn’t have what it takes to be in the society.
All I can say is, I'm so glad I do not live in Fulton County. They are some other counties that are bad, but Fulton County really don't mind showing how awful and corrupt they are! Sorry to all people who live in Fulton County to all the BS yall have to go thru to get anything done. Now the whole world see why you have family members still sitting in that nasty jail who hasn't had a chance to fight their cases. Then if they don't have enough money to fight this corruption yall have no chance on a fair trial. Prayers going up for you all. 🙏🙏🙏
I haven’t even heard the full argument yet but based on the corruption of the D.A and the people who carry the title of justices in Fulton County it won’t surprise me that they created there own interpretation of Law…these people will not get away with it ..they’re Day of accountability will come..
I hate when a person, who clearly is unable to comprehend the BIG words he’s trying to use, chooses to use those words in order to sound more intelligent, but instead just comes across as the fool he actually is! 🙄
Ashleigh, I think, is so detailed and plans things out so much, that when she is examining a witness she is unable to use an alternative route if the witness is being the difficult and/or the judge allows them to play dumb. How could she possibly have asked for something she didn’t know existed? Thats all she needed to say regarding whether or not she thought the first batch was complete. And is he saying they simply give enough documents to make someone happy and not all the documents that pertain to a subject?
She did ask for what she didn't know existed bc she didn't ask according to the records retention schedule. People do it all the time. They think a certain record is kept by a public office and it's simply not kept or maintained. Therefore, no records exist. Nobodya hiding anything. The record just does not exist.
@@ms.t.7319 I mean clearly, considering the records are dealing with something Willis would prefer not be shared, they have the records, HAD the records at the time, and will do everything in their power to avoid giving them until they are forced to do so
Ashley Merchant is NOT the girl where you want to come home 3 hours late for dinner without a locked-down alibi. She will take you apart like a cheap suit. Not a fan of "girlboss" culture, but that is hot as f. ❤🔥
Facts all the WH and all of Fulton County DA office say. Almost everytime they speak. But I think it's supposed to tell all of us normal people that they really mean something with that statement and we should just believe all of them and what they say even though all they tend to do is lie to the American people smh
Everyone on here complaining but why do the people keep voting her in? They just elected her as the democratic nominee for this November. I guess they like how she makes them and their kinfolks follow the law while not holding herself or her employees accountable. Put your party affiliation aside, anyone would be better than this corruption!
They are Not claiming the documents don’t exists, but that some arcane word or punctuation usage, abrogates the DA’s office from complying for months at a time & then in court they claim they are not served. We as the public can not hate the legal industry enough?
Why does that woman in the court room by herself keep looking back over her shoulder, she as she is texting or whatever she doing on her telephone!? Is she still communicating with the defendent getting instructions or sharing confidential information?
He is using semantics & diversion to parse words to fit his narrative. Based on his tap dancing in the rain he almost certainly is a member of the bar. Proving not all liars are attorneys, but all attorneys are on some level liars
This witness is rude and is sooo unprofessional! His defensive behavior makes him look like he's hiding incriminating information. It also makes him look like a jerk.
Still there. I edited the spelling errors I caught. No defense at all. Just a person who worked in public service as a public records specialist for many years. The public, not even attorneys, understand that when they request records, they must do so in a manner prescribed by law. Many govt agencies created portals to aid the public in making valid requests, but sometimes, they still make overly broad, unproductive requests.
@@ms.t.7319sounds like it's only the people working in these offices make everything unproductive because they feel like they are in a place of power and if they don't want someone to get something they won't let it happen. To many people with egos and power trip Public documents are just that so what's so hard about that fact and why can't everything be put in a central place and gave to the people asking?! First thing, put every single thing in one place, place a number on each and every piece of paper so everyone knows how many pages are on record, redact what needs to be done, then make available everything else. Alot less time and money wasted on this nonsense in filing, court time and frankly the publics time and money on getting the records.
The judge was allowing Dexter to run on and avoid the question presented. I wonder why she felt the need to allow him to avoid answering repeatedly? She even said she warned Dexter repeatedly and still never warned him of contempt for ignoring the judges directive.
In fairness, Merchant was not keeping her questions specific and allowing Dexter way too much wiggle room. All she has to do is ask him what methods he used to do his searchs for the FOIA requests. Once he established that he didn't use one method, then she can tear into his methods as not traceable to verify he did anything? Ask him why he chose to do a search by office or cell phone, but conveniently can't remember which method he used. How would he know what his specific request was and when it was done if he can't even remember what method he used and has no record of his request?
I can not believe this is Still going on ridiculous! Don't understand why a judge can't order that they go in and take what they need !! Stop putting this State through all this the money being spended on this
I am watching this later....this dude is so dumb. The 1st request wS for ALL correspondence, all 196 pages, the office gave her 44. The office failed to abide by the open records act.
Incompetence & corruption at every level in Fulton County. From Fani Willis, Adrianne Love, Hylton, records custodian. Why public employees feel they can play these games without being accountable is beyond me
Because they have, indeed, been able to play these games and not been held accountable for it.
And they just play right in the public’s face too 😭
They're all black, and this is their entitlement -- third finger salute to the whites

These judges in Fulton county have no control over their courtrooms
That judge in YSL had a damn emotional suppprt dog in the courtroom
Why dont the FBI go in and take all their dokuments!??
Because the FBI are in on it with them. The DA and FBI are in bed together.
😂
He is a little defensive 😂
He will eventually give Ms. Merchant what she is asking for, no?
This man is a hostile witness
@@HigherThinkingyou forgot worthless - typical DEI hire!
@@juliemaring6048 🤣🤣 I dont know about DEI but he def is a clown 🤣🤣
I’ve never heard the words, let’s be clear, so many times while simultaneously feeling, in fact, very unclear.
Why do so many lawyers in America mispronounce the simple word “ask”?Very clear that Dexter thinks Ashley Merchant is a troublemaker and a liar and because of this judgement made, that isn’t his to make, he has breached his obligations at law fundamentally obstructing and dismissing legitimate requests.
As the offspring of three generations of lawyer two barristers one solicitor….. never in my life and I’m over 50 have I seen a lawyer behave as belligerently ( oh maybe Fani) in a court room as Mr Dexter did today? In my opinion, he doesn’t have what it takes to be in the society.
I can't believe this crap! I mean, this is all basic common sense people! I mean it is, isn't it?
This Judge doesn’t seem capable in this serious case as this! Willis has committed many crimes hold her accountable!
All I can say is, I'm so glad I do not live in Fulton County.
They are some other counties that are bad, but Fulton County really don't mind showing how awful and corrupt they are!
Sorry to all people who live in Fulton County to all the BS yall have to go thru to get anything done. Now the whole world see why you have family members still sitting in that nasty jail who hasn't had a chance to fight their cases. Then if they don't have enough money to fight this corruption yall have no chance on a fair trial.
Prayers going up for you all. 🙏🙏🙏
I haven’t even heard the full argument yet but based on the corruption of the D.A and the people who carry the title of justices in Fulton County it won’t surprise me that they created there own interpretation of Law…these people will not get away with it ..they’re Day of accountability will come..
I hate when a person, who clearly is unable to comprehend the BIG words he’s trying to use, chooses to use those words in order to sound more intelligent, but instead just comes across as the fool he actually is! 🙄
Ms. WILLIS could be stalling until after the elecion...which could make her problems dissappear
She's running again isn't she? When she wins, if there are any problems, they're still there when she's sworn back into office. Mute issue.
Fani's new thug baby
Miss merchant is pissed
Professionals dislike unprofessionals and liers !!
This is ridiculous that these records weren’t provided
Ashleigh, I think, is so detailed and plans things out so much, that when she is examining a witness she is unable to use an alternative route if the witness is being the difficult and/or the judge allows them to play dumb.
How could she possibly have asked for something she didn’t know existed? Thats all she needed to say regarding whether or not she thought the first batch was complete. And is he saying they simply give enough documents to make someone happy and not all the documents that pertain to a subject?
She did ask for what she didn't know existed bc she didn't ask according to the records retention schedule. People do it all the time. They think a certain record is kept by a public office and it's simply not kept or maintained. Therefore, no records exist. Nobodya hiding anything. The record just does not exist.
@@ms.t.7319 but the records did exist
@@ms.t.7319 I mean clearly, considering the records are dealing with something Willis would prefer not be shared, they have the records, HAD the records at the time, and will do everything in their power to avoid giving them until they are forced to do so
The 1st witness was rude! Judge should hope in contempt. RUDE
Thanks to Mrs. Merchant for pursuing this! The behavior of this PUBLIC ENTITY is shameful!
Ashley Merchant is NOT the girl where you want to come home 3 hours late for dinner without a locked-down alibi. She will take you apart like a cheap suit. Not a fan of "girlboss" culture, but that is hot as f. ❤🔥
Fani and Willis deserve jail time for lying under oath.
Could not have said it better myself!!!!
Certified goes to anyone at the address that signs. Restricted mail goes specifically to the addressed individual.
“Let me be very clear” because I’m a bonehead and lack the capability to actually speak the truth.
Facts all the WH and all of Fulton County DA office say. Almost everytime they speak. But I think it's supposed to tell all of us normal people that they really mean something with that statement and we should just believe all of them and what they say even though all they tend to do is lie to the American people smh
And... He clearly can't answer a yes or no question!! Every single answer he gives a complete 5 min narrative. So annoying!
Everyone on here complaining but why do the people keep voting her in? They just elected her as the democratic nominee for this November. I guess they like how she makes them and their kinfolks follow the law while not holding herself or her employees accountable. Put your party affiliation aside, anyone would be better than this corruption!
We the citizens of Georgia Demand Equal and Fully Accountable treatment and rulings accordingly.
I don't think I like this judge at all.
I like her. She's actually fair and impartial.
Fulton County Ga. judge!!
How can she say they were harassed with subpoenas n one minute then say they weren’t served in another?
They are Not claiming the documents don’t exists, but that some arcane word or punctuation usage, abrogates the DA’s office from complying for months at a time & then in court they claim they are not served. We as the public can not hate the legal industry enough?
Why does that woman in the court room by herself keep looking back over her shoulder, she as she is texting or whatever she doing on her telephone!? Is she still communicating with the defendent getting instructions or sharing confidential information?
Does this guy hold any education? How can someone run an office but doesn’t understand simple semantics
He is using semantics & diversion to parse words to fit his narrative. Based on his tap dancing in the rain he almost certainly is a member of the bar. Proving not all liars are attorneys, but all attorneys are on some level liars
DEI baby...DEI
She's a beast merchant 🤩
So aggressive with his sweaty armpits 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Anything not sealed are up for public
Never give this judge any serious case… she will allow them to drag it till she retire
If you have nothing to hide, you'd have these documents, lady! I mean, you claim to have them, right?
This public employees conduct is reprehensible and unprofessional. I don’t understand why the judge allows this to continue
I think this judge is scared of this witness seriously
This court sounds like it's law school. Explain it to me like I'm a 10 yr old.
This witness is rude and is sooo unprofessional! His defensive behavior makes him look like he's hiding incriminating information. It also makes him look like a jerk.
Why is it necessary for a judge to school the county’s attorneys, if it not harassment, it just is not
What happened to ms.t.7319's long comment, sounded like the defense. It left in just a few min.
Still there. I edited the spelling errors I caught. No defense at all. Just a person who worked in public service as a public records specialist for many years. The public, not even attorneys, understand that when they request records, they must do so in a manner prescribed by law. Many govt agencies created portals to aid the public in making valid requests, but sometimes, they still make overly broad, unproductive requests.
@@ms.t.7319sounds like it's only the people working in these offices make everything unproductive because they feel like they are in a place of power and if they don't want someone to get something they won't let it happen.
To many people with egos and power trip
Public documents are just that so what's so hard about that fact and why can't everything be put in a central place and gave to the people asking?!
First thing, put every single thing in one place, place a number on each and every piece of paper so everyone knows how many pages are on record, redact what needs to be done, then make available everything else.
Alot less time and money wasted on this nonsense in filing, court time and frankly the publics time and money on getting the records.
Omg, I don’t know if he’s a good lawyer or good at word salad.
The judge was allowing Dexter to run on and avoid the question presented. I wonder why she felt the need to allow him to avoid answering repeatedly? She even said she warned Dexter repeatedly and still never warned him of contempt for ignoring the judges directive.
I think he grabbed his sons glasses on the way out of the house.
😂😂😂 I agree
Nothing ruins a person's credibility by saying "acksed"
She should have had another attorney question him. Foolish to represent yourself when she’s clearly emotionally invested.
First Bond didn’t know then all of a sudden it was a cyber attack smh
In fairness, Merchant was not keeping her questions specific and allowing Dexter way too much wiggle room.
All she has to do is ask him what methods he used to do his searchs for the FOIA requests.
Once he established that he didn't use one method, then she can tear into his methods as not traceable to verify he did anything?
Ask him why he chose to do a search by office or cell phone, but conveniently can't remember which method he used.
How would he know what his specific request was and when it was done if he can't even remember what method he used and has no record of his request?
Maybe that's the wsy they doeak in court in front of a Judge in Futon county Georgia😢. Vety hostile and .... Witness
What has happened to professionalism and courtesy in the court room. Including the judge not controlling her court room.
I can not believe this is Still going on ridiculous! Don't understand why a judge can't order that they go in and take what they need !! Stop putting this State through all this the money being spended on this
I am watching this later....this dude is so dumb. The 1st request wS for ALL correspondence, all 196 pages, the office gave her 44. The office failed to abide by the open records act.
