Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis is seeking an emergency protective order after confidential video recordings of key witnesses in her election interference case against former President Donald Trump were leaked to two news outlets. The videos include statements from lawyers Jenna Ellis, Sidney Powell, Kenneth Chesebro and bail bondsman Scott Hall, with Ellis saying a senior White House official insisted Trump had no plans to leave office despite losing the election. Willis's office believes the leak was intended to intimidate witnesses and is now seeking an emergency protective order to prevent further disclosure.
