Russian operative Maria Butina, who is accused of infiltrating politically powerful U.S. organizations, including the National Rifle Association, in an effort to push Moscow's agenda, pleaded guilty Thursday to a conspiracy count.
Butina has agreed to cooperate with federal prosecutors and pleaded guilty in a Washington, D.C., courtroom to one count of conspiracy to violate the law governing foreign agents operating in the United States. The felony carries a five-year prison term, but the estimated sentencing guideline range is from zero to six months in prison.
Butina was arrested in July and has been held without bail and could face deportation after serving any prison sentence. She had been in the U.S. on a student visa and Judge Tanya Chutkan on Thursday that Butina could face supervised release if she stays in the country.
Thursday's guilty plea means she is admitting to conspiring with an unnamed American to act at the direction of a Russian official "to establish unofficial lines of communication with Americans having power and influence over U.S. politics … for the benefit of the Russian Federation," according to a plea agreement.

I don't know, she still looks OK to me.
I would imagine that being under indictment can do that.
Thursday’s guilty plea means she is admitting to conspiring with an unnamed American to act at the direction of a Russian official “to establish unofficial lines of communication with Americans having power and influence over U.S. politics … for the benefit of the Russian Federation,” according to a plea agreement.
Sounds like a typical lobbyist.
Any evidence that she was being paid — in any way — by the Russian government; or is this another example of a non-leftist pleading guilty to a non-existent crime to avoid being tried in a hostile jurisdiction?
Orange suits her
conspiracy with whom?
You cannot ‘conspire’ by ones self...............
Per the plea agreement she conspired with an “unnamed American”, apparently her boyfriend Paul Erickson.
Sybil would disagree...
Is there anything about her case that is not typical Mueller b.s.?? So far as I’ve seen all she did was promote relationships between pro-2A people in the USA and people with similar interests in Russia.

Welcome to Deep State totalitarian rule.
Solitary confinement for months based on a minor rules violation. This will happen to Americans arrested overseas, too, thanks to the Deep State.
