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.”

In Feb we purchased a domain, but where having trouble with it's address (URL). Http://os9user.com would work on the internet where Http://www.os9user.com would not. This made it impossible for search engines to find us, and polling just as difficult. This has all been repaired ! (YAHOOOO) !
OS9USER.COM no longer brings you here. We had informed our readers we would be moving, and as of today we did just that. Can you still get your news here ???? YES , we are keeping blogger and the url http://www.os9user.blogspot.com - this site will be constantly updated as well as OS9USER.COM , but our breaking news will appear here 1st.
Our new site promise's many more things than our blog. As our News Room expands so does our online demands. Now we have our own domain name & site that works. Our new site, is pretty beat up, where 12 of the menu's are still offline, however OS9USER has started repairing the menu's as of today. They will come online shortly, and we will notify our readers when each menu comes back online. This was caused by using a new editor, from our new host, and some stupidity on our part for using it in the Beta stage.
One nice thing that I love about our new domain site, is the ability to scan different news sources, just by clicking your mouse on a "News Tab". Grab your coffee, and click on us, and see all the news in just one spot ! That is what I did this morning ! Also, our chat rooms are all interlink'd meaning: if you are in anyone of our 5 sites, you can communicate with all the sites, your friends need not be in the same URL as you are to chat. Kids also have their own chat room, completely safe, and very fun to use, even if you are an adult. Please take the time to check out our new site.
