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.”

Envelopes containing the white, powdery substance were discovered in five locations in Los Angeles, including Hollywood, the San Fernando Valley and northeast Los Angeles.
Envelopes were also sent to Church of Scientology properties in Glendale and Santa Monica, in addition to the ones in Tustin and Newport Beach.
They are very likely perpetrated by a new organization that refers to itself as "Anonymous" that was created specifically to cause trouble for the Church of Scientology.
These anthrax hoaxes constitute terrorism. This group has issued threatening statements on the internet, most notably via YouTube, Digg and other forums as well.

Are very likely? What does that mean? You think it is beyond Scientology to do something like this to themselves and blame a group against them? Please! Do research before you make broad based assumptions like this.

Quick denials where ever you look, ain't that interesting. And I thought you "Anonymous" are just a disorganized group of script kiddies who do not even know each other? What's next, 711chans? Murder? I hope they'll get you and I won't have a grain of sympathy when you end up in jail for stirring up hate crimes.
