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.”

WWE Employee Leaks Taped Event of WrestleMania 36 (Video)
April 03, 2020
Who leaked it to the Press?
WWE has to deal with spoilers leaking just about every week, but the recent TV and pay-per-view tapings were a bit different. While the coronavirus forced WrestleMania 36 to be moved from Raymond James Stadium in Tampa Bay to the empty WWE Performance Center, WWE's priority is to make sure WrestleMania 36 is presented in the best form possible. It was noted that last week's WrestleMania 36 tapings in Orlando ran overnight from 11pm until 5am.
Along with WWE Chairman Vince McMahon, there were only a limited number of people present for the set of WWE TV and pay-per-view tapings held last week, including Kevin Dunn, Paul Heyman, and Bruce Prichard. SI noted that the majority of the producers or agents were not present for the matches, but the ones that are local to Florida are the unlikeliest of candidates to leak spoilers, including Adam Pearce, and WWE Hall of Famers Shawn Michaels & "Road Dogg" Brian James.

As far as the Universal Championship is concerned, it is learned that Braun has defeated Goldberg, to take away the title. Also, Sasha Banks is the new SmackDown Women’s Champion, as per the pictures going viral on the internet.
