A former attorney for Donald Trump who was at the center of his effort to subvert the 2020 election has reached a plea deal and will cooperate with Georgia prosecutors in the racketeering case against Trump and many of his allies. Sidney Powell, who advised Trump during the final frantic weeks of his bid to remain in power despite losing the election, pleaded guilty Thursday to six misdemeanor counts of conspiracy to commit intentional interference with the performance of election duties, Powell’s guilty plea, which she entered in a court hearing in Atlanta, makes her the first member of Trump’s close advisers to admit to crimes related to the 2020 election. She had been slated to go on trial Monday in Fulton County, Ga., on charges that she joined Trump in the alleged racketeering conspiracy and helped engineer the breach of election equipment in a Georgia county. Judge Scott McAfee indicated that Powell was sentenced to six years probation and will be left without a criminal record if she complies with all aspects of the agreement. She also must write an apology letter to Georgia citizens.McAfee told Powell the plea deal requires her to take the witness stand against co-defendants if requested.“You’re to testify truthfully against any and all co-defendants in this matter at any upcoming proceedings,” the judge told Powell.
