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.
Amazing! Thank you. My daughter Reality Leigh Winner is yet another victim of this admin. Doing hard time for bringing the truth to light. #FreeRealityWinnerhttps://t.co/wU0sg3LeRs
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.
Military.com stated that Reality’s mother sent a Twitter message that said “Cohen has asked another attorney to look at the case and for opportunities to help.”

Lilian Garcia was part of another star-studded evening last night at the Latin Grammy Awards at New Yorks Madison Square Garden.
Last night can be summed with this there was a lot of Latino heat there! Garcia told WWE.com. It was great. It was an amazing, beautiful, unbelievable, unforgettable evening.
The RAW ring announcer walked the green carpet (green because it was sponsored by Heineken) before the show in a stunning L impasse evening gown. She was there to promote her upcoming album which will be released in 2007. Photographers and crews from networks such as VH1, MTV2 and Univision were on the green carpet, where Garcia hung out with some of todays hottest Latino musical acts. She mingled with Shakira, Jennifer Lopez, Marc Anthony, Victor Manuelle and Thalia, to name a few.
There were tons of artists there, and it was just so great to hang out with them all, Garcia said.
It was the first time the Latin Grammys were held in New York City, and Garcia said it was the perfect setting. She raved about the awards show, and said everything from the sets to the performances were; amazing.
Ricky Martin was so great. He had everybody standing, she said. And Shakira with Alejandro Sanz they opened the show and that was terrific.
After the show, Garcia attended the People En Espanol after party. This morning, Garcia was elated to see a photo of herself at the Latin Grammys in the New York Posts Sports Extra Edition.
Im like, Yay, I made it! she exclaimed. Hopefully Ill end up in the best-dressed section in the magazines.
Her photo in the New York Post is just the icing on the cake of a perfect evening at the Latin Grammys for Garcia.
The whole evening made me really proud to be Latina.
