A third attorney who falsely claimed the 2020 election was stolen flipped Tuesday and agreed to cooperate in the criminal case against former President Donald Trump in Georgia — saying she had “deep remorse” for her actions.
Jenna Ellis, 38, tearfully said she “failed” to do “due diligence” on claims that the election was stolen through fraud in swing states including Georgia, where President Biden beat Trump by fewer than 12,000 votes — joining former Trump attorneys Sidney Powell and Ken Chesebro in also pleading guilty.

“I believe in and I value election integrity,” she went on. “If I knew then what I know now, I would have declined to represent Donald Trump in these post-election challenges.”
Ellis concluded through tears, “For those failures of mine, your honor, I have taken responsibility already before the Colorado bar, who censured me. And I now take responsibility before this court and apologize to the people of Georgia.”
Ellis is expected to receive a sentence of 5 years of probation, $5,000 in restitution and 100 hours of community service — in exchange for having no contact with the media or codefendants and cooperating and testifying at other trials in the 19-person RICO case including Trump.
“I relied on others, including lawyers with many more years of experience than I, to provide me with true and reliable information, especially since my role involved speaking to the media and to legislators in various states,” Ellis said in a Fulton County courtroom Tuesday.
“What I did not do, but should have done, your honor, was to make sure that the facts the other lawyers alleged to be true were in fact true.

Plays for the other team.
This is exactly the impression I get from this guy. He's always posting and cheer leading for anything damaging to our side. Sometimes I think he does it just to stir up discussion, but too often when he makes a comment, it appears to be supporting our enemies.
This is what I think may happen as well. I also think that when he wins election, if they don't kill him or rig the election as they did in 2020, the Justice Department will be scrutinizing Fannie Willis and that Judge. I bet they find a lot of criminal activity.
Everyone involved in this prosecution needs to go to prison.
Yes, it's axiomatic that any jury in Atlanta would convict them no matter what the charge or lack of evidence. They would be like the OJ Simpson jury, but in reverse. They would convict anyone for anything.
Atlanta juries are like DC juries. Very biased.
Yes, our legal system is garbage, run by incompetents and liars. Judges should get less respect than prostitutes.
Agreed.
I admit going onto these kinds of threads with the same mindset I have when going into some of the UMC.Rev.Mom@aol.com threads (or whatever its username is) just to validate that I didn’t gather the wrong impression from a short observation window.
I never need to re-evaluate, and the same here with this poster.

White House seeks $18B to extend border wall over next 10 years

The border between USA and Mexico: 1954 miles
Days since Trump became President: 352 days
Length of new border wall built under the Trump presidency:
0 miles, 0 feet, 0 inches.
Yeah, he has always smelled kinda funny to me.
Pretty soon there will be a lot of folks sitting behind the prosecutor.
All of these lawyers are scrambling to retain their law licenses. They are taking care of #1. And that ain’t Donald.
Although I don’t like how she said she just believed what others told her without any proof.
Why are they low information voters? Because the media-liars keep them both uninformed and misinformed. The media lie machine is the greatest tool the corruption system of DC ever acquired. They manipulate the public by how they present the "news" and by what they omit from the news, like Hunter's laptop and various other important information.
Our voters are misinformed/uniformed because the media-liars control what gets out to them. The media-lie-system is the greatest threat this nation faces.
And i've been saying this for about 2 decades.
What errors? I would like a reasonable explanation as to how this is not a phony baloney show trial. Do you have one?
Oh yeah.. I know of him. I believe he has had a few “time-outs”, but that is the extent of it.
He is definitely a rabid TDSer, and I personally think an alt-account for another user here that has been here for around 2 decades, that, of course, is another troll TDSer.
Sadly, they keep letting the troll back in :/
The media-lie-machine is the greatest threat this nation currently faces. It *CAUSED* the corrupt elections of 2020, and it *CAUSED* the baseless persecutions of Trump during his term.
The media-lie-machine is our enemy and people should see it as our number 1 enemy.
Every trial has a certain amount of show. I believe that there are credible reasons for this trial. As for guilt and innocence the trial will bear that out. So far, those who haven’t made deals are more claiming they had the right to do it, not they didn’t do it. How they articulate that will be interesting. They may prevail. I don’t believe they will.
I fart in its general direction.
Explain what Team Trump was doing was legit by answering each of the counts. As for where I belong, I thought this whole issue was about free speech, yet it’s suggested that some should either shut up or go elsewhere.
Bending a knee to tyranny in the name of God?
Tell us how righteousness you’d be tough guy. I’ll bet you won’t even respond to this post.
What are you babbling about?
Yes these fake cases are to unmask the real criminals.
Maybe if you’ve got the goods on Dominion maybe you could have help save Fox 3/4 of a billion dollars, the hit on their stock and risking some of their over the air tv station licenses as well as saving Rudy and Sidney boatloads of money.
its a deal no trial for the prosecution to prove it case.
You don’t make a deal admitting guilt if you’re not guilty/if GETTR no t going to find anything. And Not if you’re a lawyer for trump
