Another key defendant in the Georgia election fraud case has pleaded guilty and agreed to testify in future trials. Sydney Powell, who was a key instrument in Donald Trump's mission to overthrow the 2020 election, has agreed to serve a six year probation and provide evidence in the conviction of the remaining defendants.



"Powell is now the second person in the sprawling racketeering case to plead guilty. Bail bondsman Scott Hall last month pleaded guilty and agreed to testify at future trials. The other 17 defendants, including Trump, have pleaded not guilty."

"Pro-Trump attorney Kenneth Chesebro’s trial is slated to begin Friday with jury selection."

Kenneth Chesebro, a key co-defendant in former President Donald Trump's Georgia election interference case, has taken a last-minute plea deal in which he has agreed to testify in the case.
Chesebro pleaded guilty to a single felony charge of conspiracy to commit filing of false documents and will receive five years' probation and a $5,000 fine, in exchange for agreeing to testify and provide documents and evidence.

Mr. Chesebro will be another key witness in the trials of the other 16 defendants who have yet to reach trial .

Chesebro, an attorney, was facing seven counts after prosecutors said he drafted a strategy to use so-called "alternate electors" to prevent Joe Biden from receiving 270 electoral votes in the 2020 presidential election, according to the Fulton County DA's indictment.

"How do you plead to Count 15, conspiracy to commit filing false documents…?" the prosecutor asked at Chesebro's court appearance in Atlanta Friday.

"Guilty," Chesebro replied.
