"Trump's Georgia Trial: Sidney Powell Seeks Distance, Co-Defendants Set for Trial, Chesebro Rejects Plea Deal, Analysis on Potential Edge, and Army of Defense Attorneys in RICO Case"

Sidney Powell, a lawyer who promoted conspiracy theories about election fraud after Donald Trump's 2020 defeat, is now claiming that she never represented him or his campaign. However, evidence contradicts her claim, including video footage of her participating in news conferences as part of the Trump legal team. Powell is set to go to trial in Georgia on racketeering charges related to her role in a data breach at an elections office. While some believe her conduct may be wacky but not criminal, others argue that her involvement in the conspiracy theories goes beyond giving legal advice and that prosecutors may struggle to secure convictions in the highly politicized trials.
