Sidney Powell, a former lawyer for Donald Trump, has pleaded guilty to six counts of conspiracy for aiding the former U.S. president's efforts to overturn his election defeat in Georgia. As part of the plea deal, Powell will serve six years of probation, pay a fine of $6,000, and write an apology letter to Georgia and its residents. She has also agreed to testify against Trump if called upon. Legal experts speculate that Powell's guilty plea could have a significant impact on her co-defendants and be devastating for Trump in the Georgia case.
With three of his top lawyers pleading guilty in Georgia, how does Trump escape a plea deal or a conviction?
If Trump goes into court in Georgia and the prosecutor states that three of his lawyers have pled guilty It makes it kind of tough for Trump to get an acquittal.
Trump has been very insulting to the Georgia prosecutor and judge. What if they won't offer him a plea deal?

There’s a lot of cope to people saying Sidney Powell only plead to misdemeanors. While it’s true the case was fabricated, the plea still shows the hell Soros DA’s can put innocent people through. Republicans in Georgia AG and Governor office did nothing to stop it.

The spin on the Right is the Powell plea deal dropping the felonies proves the DA didn’t have a case. Quite the contrary. Powell has already given a proffer to the DA. The generosity of this plea deal reflects how valuable that proffer was to the DA against bigger co-defendants.
