Former Trump Lawyer Jenna Ellis Pleads Guilty, Receives Probation in 2020 Election Case; May Witness Against Giuliani

Ellis pleads guilty to aiding false statements in Georgia's 2020 election interference case, receives five years probation as part of plea deal, and may now testify against Giuliani in upcoming RICO trial.

Former Trump campaign lawyer, Jenna Ellis, pleaded guilty to being part of a conspiracy to overturn Georgia's 2020 election results after prosecutors offered her a no-jail cooperation deal allowing her to potentially keep her law license.
The plea agreement for Ellis accelerated after Sidney Powell and Kenneth Chesebro, other lawyers connected to the case, entered guilty pleas before their trial, indicating a need for prompt action.
Ellis was sentenced to five years probation and agreed to cooperate with prosecutors in future investigations, making her a potential key witness against former President Trump and his ally Rudy Giuliani.
Rudy Giuliani is facing Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) charges and 12 other counts in Georgia, and he has yet to secure a plea deal similar to Ellis, Powell, and Chesebro. His hearing is scheduled for Dec. 11 in Fulton County, Ga.
Although Ellis's cooperation is part of her plea deal, her attorney, Frank Hogue, suggests that she may not provide much help to Giuliani if called as a witness in his case, and that his legal troubles extend far beyond her participation.
