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.

A British man who believed his wife was having an affair has put her up for sale on eBay.
Paul Osborn, 44, offered his “cheating, lying, adulterous slag of a wife” to the highest bidder.
Bids started at just 1 pence (about 2 cents) and quickly climbed to a staggering bid of $969,890.
Paul listed his wife Sharon after hearing rumors that she was having an affair with one of her work colleagues.
Paul told Britain’s UK Sun : "I started checking her emails and I realized the rumors were true.
They had been discussing their sex life together and making plans for the future. I was absolutely destroyed. I gathered all her stuff in bags and dumped it in the drive.”
The couple later reconciled, but problems flared up again leading Paul to post Sharon on eBay.
He said: In a fit of rage I put the advert on eBay. I later took it off because I realized it wasn’t the right thing to do. I was just so angry.”
Sharon has maintained that nothing is going on with her co-worker and she is not having an affair. She has contacted the police and they are investigating Paul for harassment.
