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.”

You must have a MyBlogLog account to enter. On Sunday Log into your account 1st on MyBlogLog and then jump off to thepisstakers.com
Take a look around and post a comment or two , or better yet, enter the xFruits RSS Feed contest. 1st place winner receives a Kingston Memory Card. (Shown on right) After, On Sunday the site owner (Ed) with his coffee (to keep him from falling back asleep), review's all the people who are listed in his MyBlogLog Script. (It tells him the last 10 From MBL)
They take this information and do a funny (but good) write-up on your site! They also backlink to your site, and stumble it as well. It does drive more traffic into your site, as you will see from your logs.
After the review is done , I read the other 9 contender's that entered in the contest with me. It is interesting to see exactly which blogs entering. Anytime a site backlinks to you , it is a good thing for 'PR'.
Note, We will be promoting the MBL Sunday banner when we receive it. OS9USER
