Quote:A judge ripped into a Colorado county clerk for her crimes and lies before sentencing her Thursday to nine years behind bars for a data-breach scheme spawned from the rampant false claims about voting machine fraud in the 2020 presidential race.

District Judge Matthew Barrett told former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters — after earlier sparring with her for continuing to press discredited claims about rigged voting machines — that she never took her job seriously.

“I am convinced you would do it all over again if you could. You’re as defiant as any defendant this court has ever seen,” Barrett told her in handing down the sentence. “You are no hero. You abused your position and you’re a charlatan.”

Jurors found Peters guilty in August for allowing a man to misuse a security card to access to the Mesa County election system and for being deceptive about that person’s identity.

The man was affiliated with My Pillow chief executive Mike Lindell, a prominent promoter of false claims that voting machines were manipulated to steal the election from former President donald trump. The discredited claims trace back to trump himself, whose supporters attacked the U.S. Capitol because of them and who still hints at them in his third run for president.

Former Colorado county clerk Tina Peters sentenced to 9 years for voting data scheme

And yet just this week they demonstrated in Georgia how to bust the crypto keys on a dominion voting system.

So when are all the people (at least 90% Democrats.. probably closer to 100%) who used a Russia and Ukraine quid pro quo hoax to say the election was stolen and impeach Trump going to be prosecuted?

I’ve been to my share of sentencing hearings. Never impressed when a judge launches into a Big Speech, or goes into Here Endeth The Lesson mode. Usually the sign of an @sshole trying to get famous or angling for a promotion.

Tina Peters was probably a troubled soul all along, but since her son was killed a few years ago it really all fell apart for her. She had a lot of chances to avoid this outcome and instead seemed to desire it. I think at some level, she does.

Justice is served!

JFC you loons will celebrate any little thing excited school girls. Look how giddy VI 2.0 is. Pathetic.

No more “Good news!” ??

Incarceration is justified here, but 9 years seems real vindictive, imho. I have a feeling that Peters and Barrett have a bitter history that goes beyond anything that is connected to politics or this case.

Not another Republican down, another CRIMINAL. There's no crime in being Republican or conservative, and crime is certainly not exclusive to the GOP.
Senator Menendez (D-NJ) and any other criminals who happen to be Democrats politically belong in prison as well.

Who is Tina Peters and why do I care about her (him/it)?

It will be interesting to see if he gets treated as harshly.
