Sydney Powell, who worked for former President Trump, has pleaded guilty to spreading false claims of election fraud after the 2020 contest and trying to tamper with voting machines in Georgia.
Under the plea deal, Powell will serve six years of probation, pay a $6,000 fine, pay restitution of $2,700 to the state that covers the cost of replacing election equipment, write an apology letter and testify truthfully in future hearings and trials, as well as provide "any requested documents or evidence subject to any lawful privileges asserted in good faith prior to entering this plea."
I wonder what he punishment would be if she wasn't a lawyer? A lot more I'll bet. The funny thing is that as an officer of the court, which all lawyer are, she is supposed to be held to a higher standard than the general public.
I hope the deal the prosecutors made results in some serious convictions for others. Powell is getting off easy.
