ATLANTA, Ga. (Atlanta News First) — A former Fulton County Superior Court judge who was the focus of a judicial misconduct investigation has been hired as a prosecutor by the district attorney who attempted to put Donald Trump in jail.

Fulton County DA Fani Willis’ office confirmed it has hired Shermela Williams as a prosecutor.
...
Williams was first elected to the court in 2020 and mostly handled family, divorce and child custody-related cases. But she resigned in February 2026 while facing a judicial misconduct case before the Georgia Judicial Qualifications Commission.

While she was a judge, Williams was accused of:

* Illegally detaining and jailing a young witness during a divorce/custody matter without lawful authority.

* Improperly trying to influence a case involving a family member.

* Improper ex parte communications, which are communications about cases outside the presence of the other side;

* Chronic delays in issuing orders/rulings in family-law cases.

Somehow, Fani hiring a corrupt, tyrannous, incompetent former judge seems par for Fani's course.
