Sidney Powell: Trump ex-lawyer pleads guilty in Georgia election case
Former Donald Trump lawyer Sidney Powell has pleaded guilty to six charges in the Georgia election interference case.
Powell, who was charged alongside the former president, reached a deal with prosecutors and will now testify at future trials.
There are 19 defendants in the case, most of whom have pleaded not guilty.
Powell faced charges of conspiracy to commit intentional interference of election duties.
Her agreement to testify, in exchange for six years of probation, is a huge win for prosecutors in the sweeping case. Powell was intimately involved in Mr Trump's fight to overturn the state's results in the 2020 presidential election.
The deal also required her to record a proffer, essentially a verbal account of her activities, and to pay a fine and write an apology letter to Georgia citizens.
