Air Force veteran pleaded guilty to leaking top-secret NSA documents

Donald Trump’s election so incensed Reality Winner that she took actions that ultimately cost the Air Force veteran her freedom. Now the former Augusta-area resident is asking Trump for mercy.


Winner, who pleaded guilty to leaking top-secret government documents about Russian meddling in the 2016 election, is asking for her record-setting 63-month prison sentence to be reduced. She has served nearly 33 months of that sentence and wants to be freed.

The White House and Justice Department did not immediately respond to requests for comment.More: Reality Winner gets record-setting prison sentence in NSA leak caseBefore she was arrested, Winner, 28, spent months unleashing a tirade of social media posts calling Trump, among other things, an “orange fascist” and “Tangerine in Chief.” Winner has said she voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016.

She also wrote in a notebook seized by authorities that she wanted to “burn the White House down” and then flee overseas, according to federal prosecutors.

The government prosecuted her under the Espionage Act, a World War I-era law aimed at spies.In the petition she filed last week, Winner says she had no previous criminal record, did not conspire with foreigners against America and “only acted to inform the public.”

She adds that she has been diagnosed with depression, anxiety and bulimia, and that she is enduring “substantial suffering,” for which she needs therapy. She is being held at Federal Medical Center Carswell in Fort Worth, Texas.A former military linguist, she also highlights the Air Force Commendation Medal she received in 2016 for meritorious service. The citation for the medal says she aided in “650 enemy captures, 600 enemies killed in action and identifying 900 high value targets.”

At the time of her arrest, she was working as a National Security Agency contractor.“The continued imprisonment of Reality Leigh Winner serves no social or preventative purpose,” her petition says. “Her continued incarceration is costly, unnecessary to protect the public, burdensome to her health and well-being and not commensurate with the severity of her offense

.In an interview Tuesday, Winner’s attorney, Alison Grinter Allen, called her prison sentence “outlandish” and an “overreaction.”“Forgiving our truth-tellers is going to be absolutely key to beginning the national healing process after our country was attacked,” she said, referring to Russia’s meddling in the 2016 election.“We are embarking on an election process, and we need to know that our government prizes the truth and our republic by and for the people over anything else. To start that, we need to know that the people who tell us the truth will be protected or at least forgiven.”

In a telephone interview with The Atlanta Journal-Constitution in August 2018, Winner said she was not the leftist activist portrayed by her critics. She expressed regret for her actions, saying she was young, naive and frustrated at the two-party election system.

K hunt

Play stupid games- - - - -win stupid prizes! Let her serve the full sentence, and deal with the consequences of being a convicted felon for the rest of her life!
Jerry

She won a dose of reality

Do the crime; serve the time!

She needs to be held until her trigger, a.k.a. Trump Syndrome, is no longer a problem.
FOUR MORE YEARS.

By the time she gets out, she will only have to put up with Trump for a couple more years

Poor baby. Lol ed k

There ya go!

Her ass can rot completely away as far as I'm concerned.

I do not feel sorry for her at all.

I do hope that Trump finds it in his heart to tack on 12 more months.

Sounds like a model citizen, and a Bernie voter.

Did I miss her apology somewhere?

No, you didn’t miss it
She just feels it’s her right to divulge classified information because she hates the Tangerine president.
Can a judge add more time to her sentence? Self important bitch.

Give her a cigarette, and a blindfold.

no social or preventative purpose

unnecessary to protect the public

I agree 100%. It prevents nothing and does not protect the public.

It's punishment and she has it coming.

Another anti-Constitutionalist revealed. You hate the whole Bill of Rights, or just the 5th?

Maybe she got tired of eating fish?

Leave her there.

Eff her - double the sentence, if possible..
