Ellis flips.
- Five years’ probation
- $5000 restitution
- Apology to the People of the State of Georgia
- Testimony cooperation agreement
The charge she is pleading guilty to is “aiding and abetting false statements and writings,” in relation to the Dec 3, 2020, presentation before the Georgia State Senate committee, where Guiliani and others presented false testimony that:
- 96,000+ mail in ballots were counted falsely
- 2500 convicted felons voted,
- 66,000+ underage people voted,
- almost 2500 non-registered people voted
- 1000+ people voted registered using a PO box
- 10,315 dead people voted
- Fulton County election workers ordered a poll watcher and media to leave and continued to count votes
Ms. Ellis makes a statement to the court at ~17:00, which appears to be her apology statement to the People of the State of Georgia.
At the end of the proceedings, defense requests that Ms. Ellis be allowed to travel out of state prior to the probation being transferred to her state of residence (Florida). The State does not oppose this, and the exception is granted.
To your point.
Another thing that stood out to me is how she is absolutely incapable of keeping a smarmy smirk off of her face, throughout all of her responses admitting guilt - until it was time for her to read that letter, then here come the waterworks.
Bets on who’s going to flip next? I think Misty Hampton probably will go soon. She’s such a low end player, and the other two involved with Coffee County already pleaded (Powell and Hall). Ray Smith, I believe, was one of the two co-conspirators named in this hearing with Ellis in the Dec 3, 2020 presentation to the GA Senate committee - along with Guiliani. Pressure has got to be mounting on Rudy pretty hard, considering he’s broke now, but he’s so wacko (or drunk), who knows what’s going on in his head.
Oh lordy, that smirk! Play-acting. Grrrr. I’m sure she thinks the whole thing is sooo unjust.
