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.”

Update on OS9USER
February 27, 2008
They say : "When it rain's it pours". I could not agree more. Lynn just informed me that AT & T cut her internet connection. I remember reading someplace that if you bad mouth'd AT & T they would pull the plug on you. It was suppose to be in your "Revised TOS Agreement".
I am not sure if this is the reason or not, but one thing I am sure of she is offline for awhile. Nothing was mentioned here on OS9USER that would cause this. There is a FCC Ruling coming up shortly about this. I can hardly wait to read it.
Once again, I am running this site by myself. The news will be postedtoday as usual.
Quick Notes : Our new template looks like a horror. It was taken down and the previous one is back online. (This is the one you are seeing now)
I am backed up once again with the news. I will have the News Cast online very shortly.
Promise !
I know everyone is waiting for this, I just do not want to slap it together, and say "Here it is"....
I am trying to make a very News worthy video for everyone. It will be well worth the wait.
OS9USER - This site is going to turn into a very "Opinionated Site". I do not have very many Good things to say, but plenty to say otherwise. Once the news cast is online and I get a routine going, you will see not all News Cast will be "Oh look at this" or "Nice Site". I plan on shining some light on trouble spots on the internet in hopes that Google will do something about them.

"There are estimates that by the end of the term of this administration, they will have lost more jobs than almost any other presidential administration."
That Rose Garden event — there's been a great deal of speculation about it — my wife Karen and I were there and honored to be there. Many of the people who were at that event, Susan, were actually tested for coronavirus, and it was an outdoor event, which all of our scientists r...
