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.

falsely claimed
What tactics are the Deep State Anti-Trumpers using to to not only get these three to flip with blubbering apologies, but on the legal community at large to NOT defend or represent the gulaged J-6ers? It has to be beyond threats of disbarment and jail sentences.
Jenna, you’re a girl...stay out of the big leagues.
“THE WALLS ARE CLOSING IN ON TRUMP” Part 375
Trump can now say he was misled by all these guilty lawyers.
That, or “without evidence”.
They broke her.....sad.
End times “could” be at hand.
The end times for America, CLEARLY ARE!
Who knew, that I actually lived during and through the heydays of America. They are definitely OVER!
Bingo...ALL DEMOCRATS ARE PURE EVIL WHO WANT TO DESTROY ALL GOOD THINGS AND GOOD PEOPLE.
> What exactly is she being charged with? <
My question as well. It seems like her only crime was questioning the Georgia election results, which would be 1A protected speech.
But perhaps I’m missing something.
Contesting elections is illegal when Republicans do it.
“I look forward to Mayor Giuliani spearheading the legal effort to defend OUR RIGHT to FREE and FAIR ELECTIONS! Rudy Giuliani, Joseph diGenova, Victoria Toensing, Sidney Powell, and Jenna Ellis, a truly great team, added to our other wonderful lawyers and representatives!”

With the entire weight and cash of the Feds on her, Jenna buckled and choked. Hostage video at 11!
wIKI:
According to The Washington Post, after Trump’s announcement, Ellis and Giuliani privately staged “a hostile takeover” of the Trump campaign from Trump’s other advisers and campaign staff, resulting in Ellis, Giuliani and Powell gaining the foremost public roles regarding Trump’s post-election efforts.[25] On November 19, Ellis spoke at a press conference alongside Powell and Giuliani, with Giuliani stating that all three of them represent Trump and his campaign, and Ellis declaring that they were “an elite strike force team” assisting Trump.[27][28] However, Powell soon left the team; Ellis and Giuliani stated on November 22 that Powell “is not a member of the Trump Legal Team”, nor is she a personal lawyer for Trump.[27]
Please ping me when you find an explanation. Im in the same boat with you. Lucky I still got my guns!
This is typical old style Soviet court hearings from the 1950s.
This approach has been tried and tested by countless communist regimes, it's extremely effective!
Hard to believe the judicial and legal system has been so corrupted and politicized that a lawyer representing a client that is not successful, is indicted for bringing the case. What’s next? Lawyers suing on behalf of the wrongly convicted, who lose the case are subject to indictment for instituting the suit. I think in extreme cases of malicious prosecution, immunity for prosecutors and judges should be set aside and they should be subject to being personally sued for damages.
