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.

How to get into Google News
Organisations only Google News has a policy of only accepting news sources run by accountable corporations. In other words, no to news sources run by individuals. So if you have a registered corporation/company LLC, Ltd, etc then ensure you have an about section on the news source that clearly shows it run by the company, not an individual. In that regard, it is probably good practice to ensure you carry a disclaimer and privacy policy on the site as well, both for quality assurances, and also distance your business from editorial policy.
Resubmission Google News *does* keep a record of which sites have been submitted. So if you are rejected at first, ensure you address any concerns raised before you consider resubmission. Fix them double check resubmit.
Tips on optimising for Google News
There are a couple of tips you might want to bear in mind with Google news to optimise your exposure.
No links in titles The Google News crawler can not han dle links in titles. Run your titles in h tags and include a permalink on the page that the Google News bot can use. Otherwise, you simply get your news source title on all news stories no good for keyword searches.
Numericals in the URL Ensure the URLs for each news item are unique, unchanging, and don not change or produce duplicate items. You will also need a short numerical string in your URL. These are simply so that Google News identify the news item. Unique dates (ie, day, month, & year) plus keywords, are usually fine.
30 days limit When Google News crawls and indexes your stories, it will keep them on Google News for 30 days. After that, the story is gone from their record. This is where regular news items are essential the more you can post, the greater your presence on Google News.
Images Try adding images to your news story. That way there is a chance that Google News will display your image beside the story. This will not increase your story rankings, but can be a real benefit for improving clickthrough rates. Sometimes when there are a lot of relat ed stories, Google News can even publish your image with a direct link to your news item beside the main headline. This is even if you have to otherwise dig through a mass of related stories for your actual story.
Add to favourites and Feed links Another tip here Google News does not care about your feed link or add to favorites button but human users may. If traffic retention is an aim of your site then do ensure you have clearly visible links for both of these next to your stories.
