Jenna Ellis Agrees to Cooperate in Fake Elector Case

Jenna Ellis, a former attorney for Donald Trump, has reportedly agreed to cooperate in an Arizona case against so-called fake electors who plotted to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election. On Monday, Attorney General Kris Mayes announced that Ellis had entered a cooperation agreement in the case. "Jenna Ellis signed the agreement earlier this morning," Mayes' office said in a statement. "The State has agreed to drop the charges against Ms. Ellis in exchange for her cooperation with the prosecution."

Jenna Ellis flips to help Arizona prosecutors in 2020 election case
thehill.com

... As part of the deal, Ellis agreed to testify "completely and truthfully at any time and any place," including at a criminal trial. She also vowed not to "protect any person or entity" through false information or omissions.

Ex-White House chief of staff Mark Meadows and Rudy Giuliani are among the 17 total defendants with remaining charges; they were indicted in April and have pleaded not guilty.

Trump himself is not charged in the case but is described as "unindicted co-conspirator 1."

Ellis's charges stemmed from her false claims of election fraud and efforts to pressure the Arizona Legislature into overturning the state's election results in Trump's favor. ...

All 9 charges dropped PLUS a 5-year probation, a fine ~~ and if she does anything to violate the agreement, all bets are off.

It will be interesting to see if this crack in the dam triggers other defendants to look for their own deal and perhaps even to the indictment of Donald Trump.

What a riot. She only agreed to cooperate when there were no other options available. She even dropped a bunch of hints she was available for purchase, when she complained Trump wasn't paying anyone else's defense expenses.

He had his chance. By not paying her legal expenses, he forced her to flip.

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.

Well, she did work closely with Rudy in both Georgia and Arizona. And Rudy worked closely with Trump. So there you have it. Full circle.

Ellis seems like a pretty decent catch for the prosecutors. There was no way they'd latch onto any of tne "brains" of the enterprise - Giuliani, Meadows, et. al. - who have other, enormous problems to deal with. But she probably saw and heard quite a bit involving that band of bozos. Should any in the AZ crop ofthose indicted have anything of interest to offer the prosecution, now's the time.

Right now, she just looks broken and sorry that she let herself get sucked into Trump's tangled web of lies and deceit. Lawyers are officers of the court and are supposed to know better than to become part of the crime.

Maybe she was just easy pickins' for Trump. I don't know. Chances are that she just had dollar signs in her eyes. But I do know that she's lucky she's getting off this easy with only the loss of her reputation.

I'm sure the tears and her buyer's remorse for her choice in clients is real.

But she did hike herself all the way from Colorado to Georgia with the hope that being known as 'The President's lawyer' would give her future career a big boost.

If that's the case, and if she wasn't a cultist or a true believer, then she was a predator in search of fame and nothing else. Stories of Trump being a user and abuser of lawyers would have fallen on deaf ears.
