A fourth defendant in Fulton County district attorney Fani Willis’s RICO investigation into former President Donald Trump’s alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election has pleaded guilty.

 

 

 

Attorney Jenna Ellis, who had been charged with violation of Georgia’s Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) and solicitation of violation of oath by a public officer by Willis’s team, entered a guilty plea to one count of aiding and abetting false statements and writings, a felony. In exchange for her plea, she was sentenced to five years of probation, a $5,000 fine, and, like other defendants before her, has to write a letter of apology to the citizens of Georgia. Additionally, she will have to testify against her fellow defendants if called upon to do so. If she successfully completes her sentence, she will have her record wiped clean.

 

 

 

Ellis’s plea does not mention Trump or the January 2021 breaches of the Coffee County elections office. She is the fourth of 19 defendants to plead guilty in the RICO case. Scott Hall, an Atlanta bail bondsman who was in the Coffee County elections office copying election equipment; former Trump attorney Sidney Powell; and attorney Kenneth Chesebro, who is believed to have orchestrated the fake elector scheme following the 2020 election, have pled guilty as well.
