Three days ago, Sidney Powell accepted a plea deal from the prosecutors. Instead of going to trial on seven felonies, Ms. Powell pleaded guilty to only six misdemeanors—for which she will only be given six years' worth of probation and a $6,000 fine.
This is significantly less than the actual jail time that she was facing. However, outside of this reduced sentence, there is something else. Because she took the plea deal, Ms. Powell will now be required to testify against the other co-defendants at the upcoming trials—including against former President Donald Trump himself.
Over in the state of Georgia, President Trump as well as 18 other defendants are facing charges related to the 2020 election. Specifically, this case was brought forth by the prosecutors under the RICO law, which stands for the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act.
This is an extremely powerful law that is currently on the books in 33 different states, and it’s used to allow prosecutors to combat mob-style criminal activity. Essentially, the way that the law is designed allows prosecutors to target the kingpin who intentionally keeps themselves several steps removed from the actual illegal activity being committed on the ground. This means that the Georgia state prosecutors are charging this case as if it were a case involving the mafia—with the idea being that President Trump was the kingpin, leading everyone else in the commission of a crime.
