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.

With 50,000 daily visitors plowing into his site, (but only for a short time) he managed to bring this attack to many peoples attention.
We contacted David and told him if there was anything we could do, just ask. Other users went on to contacted CEO of GoDaddy.com (Bob Parsons) and left him a "Flood of Email".
David no longer needs to file for a court appearance, as GoDaddy.com repaired David's damaged website quickly an efficiently , and taking less time than was quoted.
Here is a small sniplet from his posting on his remarkable recovery from this "Cracker".
Just to let you know, the filthy person who did this to you is referred to as a “cracker” not a “hacker”. A hacker is someone who tweaks things to their purposes. A cracker is a low-life who attacks other people with malicious intent. There is a big difference.
I want to take the time to express to my readers, this is the 1st time that being hacked turned out to be a blessing. With 50k readers per day and an overloaded server, we (the readers) brought back justice to the internet by taking his site away from the "Cracker".
David made a few friends on the way, and was blessed by some information he did not have before this attack. He also claim's to use his blog in the future to defeat hackers , very much like what we are trying to do here.
