From The Washington Post:
Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes (D) reached a cooperation agreement Monday with Jenna Ellis, who was a legal adviser to Donald Trump’s 2020 campaign and was one of 18 defendants indicted in April on felony charges related to alleged efforts to try to subvert President Biden’s victory in the state four years ago, according to prosecutors.
The attorney general has agreed to drop nine felony charges against Ellis in exchange for her full cooperation with the investigation into the GOP plan to try to deliver Arizona’s 11 electoral votes to Trump instead of the rightful winner, Biden.
She was also connected to PA State Senator Doug Mastriano's campaign for governor:
Doug Mastriano, Pennsylvania’s Republican nominee for governor who has pushed Donald Trump’s election lies, said Monday that he had appointed Trump’s former campaign lawyer as a senior legal adviser to his own campaign.
In case you've forgotten.
Anyway, you can find the plea agreement here.
The important section seems to be this one:
Jenna Ellis shall waive the Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination and shall provide truthful information in any and all interviews given to representatives of the Arizona Attorney General’s Office, and shall testify completely and truthfully at any time and any place requested by the Arizona Attorney General’s Office, including at any state or federal grand jury proceeding, forfeiture proceeding, bond hearing, pretrial hearing, civil and criminal trial, retrial or post-trial hearing. Jenna Ellis agrees to answer all questions on direct, cross-examination and redirect examination truthfully and completely.
And there's also this:
All such information and testimony from Jenna Ellis shall be truthful, honest, candid, and complete with no knowing material false statements or omissions. Such information and testimony shall include all criminal activity known to Jenna Ellis.
And this:
Jenna Ellis shall neither attempt to protect any person or entity through false information or omissions nor falsely implicate any person or entity.
I realize the Arizona AG is looking for information regarding the Arizona fake elector scheme, but what do you think the chances are the Pennsylvania's fake elector scheme might also come up in any of those conversations?
Let's review.
The New York Times reported:
As they organized the fake elector scheme, lawyers appointed a “point person” in seven states to help organize those electors who were willing to sign their names to false documents. In Pennsylvania, that point person was Douglas V. Mastriano, a proponent of Mr. Trump’s lies of a stolen election who is now the Republican nominee for governor.
But even Mr. Mastriano needed assurances to go along with a plan other Republicans were telling him was “illegal,” according to a Dec. 12 email sent by Ms. Bobb that also referred to Mr. Giuliani, the former mayor of New York City.
“Mastriano needs a call from the mayor. This needs to be done. Talk to him about legalities of what they are doing,” she wrote, adding: “Electors want to be reassured that the process is * legal * essential for greater strategy.”
Jenna Ellis has already admitted to lying about the 2020 election:
Jenna Ellis, a lawyer who represented President Donald J. Trump after his loss in the 2020 election, admitted in a sworn statement released on Wednesday that she had knowingly misrepresented the facts in several of her public claims that widespread voting fraud led to Mr. Trump’s defeat.
The admissions by Ms. Ellis were part of an agreement to accept public censure and settle disciplinary measures brought against her by state bar officials in Colorado, her home state. Last year, the officials opened an investigation of Ms. Ellis after a complaint from the 65 Project, a bipartisan legal watchdog group.
And Rudy Giuliani was disbarred for it:
Rudy Giuliani, the former New York City mayor, federal prosecutor and legal adviser to Donald Trump, was disbarred in New York on Tuesday after a court found he repeatedly made false statements about Trump’s 2020 election loss.
The Manhattan appeals court ruled Giuliani, who had his New York law license suspended in 2021 for making false statements around the election, is no longer allowed to practice law in the state, effective immediately.
And that's who the Trump campaign sent to convince Doug Mastriano of the "legality" of the fake elector scheme.
Any comment from Pennsylvania State Senator Doug Mastriano regarding these latest events?
