Kinaya Willis, the daughter of Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, was arrested in Georgia in late August for allegedly driving with a suspended license, according to the Daily Mail.

Police pulled the district attorney’s 25-year-old daughter over Aug. 24 in Tyrone for using a cellphone while driving, according to the Daily Mail, citing an incident report. During the encounter, officers allegedly discovered that her license was revoked.

Kinaya Willis appeared to blame the incident on her mother, telling police she was using her cellphone “due to her mother calling her related to her pregnancy,” according to the Daily Mail. She also claimed she was “unaware” that her license was suspended May 13, the outlet reported.

The Fulton County district attorney arrived at the scene after her daughter was arrested to secure the 2010 Nissan Altima she was allegedly driving illegally, according to the outlet.

Bodycam footage first obtained by the Daily Mail and also obtained by the New York Post shows Willis arrive at the scene with a man, who New York Post reports is former special prosecutor Nathan Wade. Police mistakenly referred to Willis and the man as Kinaya Willis’s parents, prompting the Fulton County district attorney to clarify that Wade is “just a friend.”

Kinaya Willis was booked, then released from the Fayette County Jail on a misdemeanor charge of driving with a revoked or suspended license, the outlet reported. Authorities also reportedly took a mugshot of her at the jail, which is located 30 minutes away from her mother’s office in Atlanta.

Willis’s daughter faces a minimum of two days in jail, a $500 fine and a six-month extension of the suspension if she is found guilty, according to the Daily Mail. Her arraignment is scheduled for Oct. 24.

While prosecuting former President Donald Trump, Willis came under fire for her extramarital affair with Wade, who resigned from Trump’s Georgia election interference case following an order issued by Judge Juan Merchan in March.

Trump’s mugshot was taken Aug. 24, 2023 in Fulton County.

The Daily Caller reached out to the Fulton County district attorney’s office and the Fayette County Sheriff’s Office for comment and to confirm the Daily Mail and New York Post reports.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.
