Trump and DOJ try to spring former county clerk Tina Peters from prison | Trump directs DOJ to help secure release of Peters from Colorado prison.


Trump directs DOJ to help secure release of Peters from Colorado prison.

In a post on Truth Social last night, Trump wrote that "Radical Left Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser ignores Illegals committing Violent Crimes like Rape and Murder in his State and, instead, jailed Tina Peters, a 69-year-old Gold Star mother who worked to expose and document Democrat Election Fraud. The former Mesa County clerk was indicted in March 2022 on charges related to the leak of voting-system BIOS passwords and other confidential information. Trump's Justice Department submitted a filing on Peters' behalf in March, saying the US has concerns about "the exceptionally lengthy sentence imposed relative to the conduct at issue, the First Amendment implications of the trial court's October 2024 assertions relating to Ms. Peters, and whether Colorado's denial of bail pending appeal was arbitrary or unreasonable under the Eighth and Fourteenth Amendments."
