Billie Winner-Davis, Reality Winner's mother, told Business Insider on Tuesday that President Donald Trump's former lawyer, Michael Cohen, is attempting legal representation to aid the former Air Force language analyst contractor and Kingsville native Reality Winner with her case.
Winner pleaded guilty in 2018 to leaking classified National Security Agency information on Russia's alleged efforts to interfere with the 2016 election. She was found guilty of violating the U.S. Espionage Act and sentenced to five years in prison at the Federal Medical Center-Carswell in Fort Worth, Texas.
In 2016 following her separation from six years of active duty, Winner was hired by Pluribus International Corporation under an NSA contract to work out of Fort Gordon, Georgia.
According to ABC News, Winner printed a classified report detailing how Russian hackers allegedly “executed cyber espionage operations” on local election systems and mailed the documents to The Intercept.
She was arrested on June 3, 2017.

Michael Cohen, who pleaded guilty to campaign violations and tax fraud in 2018, began serving his sentence in May 2019 at the federal penitentiary in Otisville, New York.
He has been under house arrest since July over coronavirus concerns.

Apple Computer's Mac OS X 10.5 operating system upgrade, code-named Leopard, will feature a new application performance measuring tool named Xray, new security enhancements and a long-rumored resolution-independent user interface.
Xray, according to Apple's site, will allow developers to "track UI events in real-time and see how they affect I/O activity and CPU load at the same time."
This application will be based on the open-source DTrace, but provide a graphical interface to that utility's command-line monitoring of kernel and user code.
"Xray is an important new development tool, and given its ability to add virtualization and real-time tracking of the UI development process, it should make developing software for the Mac an easier and more responsive experience," said Tim Bajarin, a principal analyst at Creative Strategies of Campbell, Calif.
“With an iPod, our Special Ed students can take their tests in classrooms with their peers and be mainstreamed in, versus having to be pulled out to do so,” states Louisa-Muscatine Elementary School principal Scott Grimes. “That’s sure to work wonders for their self-esteem, and help them feel like they’re more a part of the group. Over time, we’re confident that using the iPod will speed up the gains that our Special Ed students will make.” [Oct 11, 2006]
