Fani Willis told reporters on Monday that she will not testify before the Georgia Senate investigative committee.
Fani Willis: “Well, first of all I don’t even think they have the authority to subpoena me but they need to learn the law.”
Reporter: Will you appear…?
Fani Willis: I will not appear to do anything that is unlawful. And I have not broken the law in any way. I’ve said it. I’ll say it among these leaders I’m sorry folks these people get pissed off that everybody gets treated equally.

Rob DiRienzo then called Georgia Committee Chair, Republican Coswert, who said if Willis refused to show and disregards her subpoena then she could be held in contempt.
Just got off the phone with Sen. Coswert, the Republican committee chair. He maintains he has statutory power to subpoena Willis, and if she refuses to show she could be held in contempt: “I sure hope it doesn’t get to that”
In the words of @AnthonyMKreis: Cue the litigation.

Fani Willis obviously does not understand the law. Georgia officials have the right to question her under oath.
If Fani Willis refuses to comply with the subpoena the Georgia state senate must hold her in contempt!
Fani is as crooked as they come! https://t.co/bEi1ru2EjU
