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.”

Ashley Kaufmann DNA test & Gossip
July 02, 2008
Ashley Kaufmann may be Lindsay Lohan's long-lost sister, according to reports Tuesday.
InTouch Magazine is claiming that Michael Lohan, the father of Lindsay and Ali Lohan, may have fathered Ashley Kaufmann during a brief split from wife Dina Lohan thirteen years ago.
DNA tests are reportedly being done to prove paternity.
Michael Lohan admitted last week that he had a month-long relationship with Kristi Kaufmann, a 44-year old Montana massage therapist, while he was separated from his wife Dina in 1994.
Kristi spoke to OK Magazine, saying that she planned on having a paternity test years ago in privacy to protect the other Lohan kids.
Kaufmann said she met Lohan at dinner with a mutual friend in the 1980's. Years later, the two met up again in 1994 and began an affair. "It went on for about four weeks," she says. "He told me he was separated from Dina. He told me about Lindsay's Jell-O commercial. He took me to meet his parents. We were in love."
A few weeks after their affair ended, Kristi discovered she was pregnant and tracked him down and told him about the baby, but he then disappeared. Over the years, she said she tried to get in touch with him and finally received a phone call while he was in jail where Kristi says Michael finally admitted, "I always knew she was mine."
Lohan has taken a DNA test to determine if Kaufmann is his daughter. The teen’s mother Kristi Kaufman claims she got pregnant with Ashley during her year-long affair with Lohan.
Lohan says he will sue Kaufmann for libel and defamation if the DNA results are negative. Results are due back in two weeks.

Lindsay has two brothers Michael Jr., 20, Cody, 12, and a sister Ali, 14.
