Former Trump lawyer Jenna Ellis barred from practicing in Colorado for three years
Washington Times ^ | 28 May 2024 | Nicholas Riccardi

Colorado legal officials on Tuesday approved an agreement with Jenna Ellis, a onetime attorney for former President Donald Trump, barring her from practicing law in the state for three years after she pleaded guilty to helping Trump try to overturn the 2020 election.

Ellis tearfully pleaded guilty to felony charges of aiding and abetting false statements in Fulton County, Georgia, in October. She was one of 18 co-defendants of Trump who were charged in a sweeping case over the former president’s campaign to reverse President Joe Biden’s 2020 victory in Georgia.

So when someone pleads guilty, and he’s not, is that technically perjury?

Nope. Check out what an “Alford Plea” is. You can plead guilty while mantaining your innocence but conceding you will likely be convicted at trial.

Plea bargaining is an extremely coercive process meant to chalk up prosecution wins while circumventing a constitutional right to trial.

Dangle the likelyhood of years behind bars if losing at trial with “just getting it over with” and many will choose the later. Guilty or not.

“...aiding and abetting false statements...”

She was looking at 10 years in jail unless she pled guilty. She knew there was no way she could get a fair trial in Fulton County Georgia, home of cannibal Willis.

The democrat Zulu’s would have ripped her to shreds and ate her milky White corpse in an orgy of gluttony.

Come January 21, 2025 those democrat cannibals will be eating themselves. /spit

Oh, we ARE finished as a Republic. Actually have been for a long time but I didn’t realize it until Barry took over. Now it s so obvious a blind man can see it.

Well Democrats are right, in a way. Trump is our dictator - we just believe he will do a far better job for us than any of their dictators. And they are rightly terrified of what might happen if their dictator loses control - somewhat irrationally, since Trump is a marshmallow compared to a Franco or a Pinochet who would actually reverse collectivist excesses at gunpoint.

The concept of electing representatives who will be responsive to what the American public wants is pretty far back in the rear view mirror. Now we just hope to find people willing to leave us alone.

She was dragged into a Democrat jurisdiction and given a taste of Pure Democracy - of the Democrats, by the Democrats and for the Democrats. Mob rule and a lynching*, in other words.

You know about this guy "joesbucks", right, Mayflower Madam?

He hates strong conservative women, which is why he's spitting on Jenna Ellis and kicking her while she's down.

*seems like you and your Democrat Party pals have always liked a little lynching when it comes to your political enemies, joescucks. Things haven't changed with your ilk in over 175 years...

On the first day, Trump should appoint her as the Asst. Federal Attorney General for the District of Colorado.

I am supportive of strong sinservstive women such as Amy Coney Barrett, Elizabeth Fox-Genovese, Jan Brewer, Joni Ernst, Kay Ivey. Maybe I’m not so hot on immature self aggrandizing women.

Do I have to drag up the long list of strong conservative women that you've attacked, joescur*?

Starting with Sarah Palin, Kellyanne Conway, Kari Lake, Michelle Bachmann, and including Katherine Harris, for Pete's sake - because she stood up to your Democrat mob in Florida all those years ago?

*Joe Biden's attack cur on FR.

My list doesn’t include conservatives getting fondled in a movie theater, or talking about Jewish space lasers, cops called because of disorderly conduct at their homes or wishing Elvis Happy Birthday on his death date or having alternative facts. My strong female conservatives don’t have that kind of baggage. Yours do. Baggage that if they were liberals be a reason why they shouldn’t be supported and even disqualified. But they say the things we want to hear, so the disqualifying baggage is ignored.

LOLOL!

You just can't help your NeverTrumping, can you?

Well, a Democrat Party operative like you is gonna Democrat Party operative, I guess.

Spread the smear on Joe Biden's enemies - that's what you do best.

I notice that you were too chicken to "engage" on the Mark Levin thread, after we smacked you down...

I know what an Alford Plea is. I watch ID and Oxygen all the time.

Did Jenna’s case involve an Alford Plea? I didn’t notice that.

“You know about this guy ‘joesbucks’, right, Mayflower Madam?”

Sad to say, no I don’t. I’ve never paid much attention to him. I’ll have to pay more attention in the future.

If he hates strong conservative women then he’s in the wrong place.

Na, I don’t think so. But in my view, our system seems completely ok with pleading guilty whether you’re guilty or not.

I think I read that more cases are resolved via Alford, than actually resolve at trial.

I’d bet there’s also a sentencing penalty to resolving with Alford as opposed to lying to a judge about how sorry you are about a crime you didn’t commit.

I'm not a lusting kid of guy.

I respect women, while you don't.
