On Oct. 24 former Trump campaign lawyer Jenna Ellis pleaded guilty to illegally conspiring to overturn the former president’s 2020 election loss in Georgia. has pleaded guilty in the Fulton County, Ga., election interference case. Jenna Ellis on Tuesday joined Sidney Powell and Kenneth Chesebro in cutting a deal that will require her to testify truthfully about the other defendants, including presumably Trump himself.Ellis’s centrality to the case, relative to the others, is debatable.
One way to read it is that Ellis was trying to salvage her own reputation. By blaming others for the bad information, she was casting herself more as a negligent, junior participant than a full-fledged leader of a criminal plot to subvert democracy.Ellis has walked this fine line before. This is the second legal proceeding in which she has admitted to spreading disinformation about the election results, with the first being a March deal she cut to avoid disbarment in Colorado.
In the 91-page indictment, she is mentioned in 12 of the 161 overt acts in the alleged racketeering conspiracy . In 10 of those 12 overt acts, she is mentioned alongside Giuliani. The only instances in which she is mentioned without Giuliani are a pair of memos sheby another Trump lawyer, John Eastman, will certainly figure in the case ahead.
