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.”

'Dark Knight' Midnight Screenings Makes $18.5 Million
July 18, 2008
The film took in an estimated $18.5 million from its midnight screenings in 3,040 theaters Friday, according to Media by Numbers, besting the 2005 performance of "Star Wars Episode III: The Revenge of the Sith," which took in $16.9 million at its debut.
"The Dark Night's" overnight numbers will grow even bigger, since Media by Numbers did not include in its report the box office total for 3 a.m. and 6 a.m. screenings.
The film will expand 4,366 screens for the weekend. "Batman Begins" opened on 3,858 screens and grossed nearly $49 million its first weekend -- a number destined to be shattered by "The Dark Knight."
In Chicago, the city that doubled for Gotham for filming, a crowd of people piled out of a rented van for the midnight showing night -- their version of the Batmobile. "We're all big comic book fans, pop culture geeks," one man said. "We figured, why not share the love?"
The film premiered at Chicago's Navy Pier, where a Batman-clad fan declared after screening the film, Chicago television station WMAQ reported that the city's IMAX Theater is expecting record-breaking attendance as it shows the movie to sell-out crowds every three hours throughout the weekend. In fact, tickets are not available for the show until Tuesday. The frenzy appears to be the same all over the country. According to online ticket-seller Fandango, the pre-sales for "The Dark Knight" made up 94 percent of its ticket sales this week.
