Kenneth Chesebro’s guilty plea follows one from Sidney Powell on Thursday.
On Friday, Kenneth Chesebro, a former lawyer for Trump’s 2020 campaign, pleaded guilty to conspiring to overturn Trump’s loss to Joe Biden in Georgia; specifically, he pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit filing false documents, which is a felony. He also admitted to helping come up with the plan to convene a slate of fake electors in Georgia.
” Obviously, none of this is good news for the former president, who, in addition to the Fulton County case, is facing three other criminal indictments. Presumably, the Georgia charges are especially worrisome to him given that 1) he can’t simply pardon himself if he becomes president again, as the case is state and not federal, and 2) the racketeering charge alone carries a minimum sentence of five years in prison, with a maximum of 20.
