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.”

Metal Gear Online Download & Game Trailer
April 18, 2008
Sure, in Europe the Metal Gear Online "Premiere Beta" is open to any and all who wander into the PlayStation Store beginning, well, right now.
The PSN gatekeepers have let this 741 MB download loose a day early, but it took me a while to find it !
The US PlayStation Blog has unleashed a massive amount of Metal Gear Online details in preparation for the oncoming beta.
The client becomes available for download on April 17, with online play beginning April 21st.
According to the blog, a Konami ID will be required for play. You can register in the client or go ahead and make one now.
You'll be able to customize your character's appearance extensively, which will likely only deter people for a few minutes from playing as (a now self-made) Solid Snake.
Skills in the game will be upgradeable, and you choose four to specialize in.
Close Quarter Combat (CQC), knife fighting, quickness, alertness, heavy weaponry mastery, demolition, and sniper mastery are just some of the skills you can specialize in.
You can also simply visit http://id.konami.net from your favorite Web browser right now and sign up as well, to get a head start!
The website is very busy due to high level of traffic creating difficulties in logging in. So Keep Trying !
After the simple registration process, you will attain your Konami ID as well as GAME ID for MGO (the GAME ID is your MGO specific ID, basically).
From there, it’s on to character creation …
Due to heavy traffic, I was unable to get the Login Screen loaded, so I will post an update to Metal Gear Online Premiere Beta shortly.
This game (and data) is massive. It will definately require a few blog posts to get it all posted.
Remember, Create an account then make your character. Starting April 21st we can play online. Watch for updates !
