TL;DR Summary

Kenneth Chesebro, a former left-leaning Harvard lawyer who worked for Al Gore during the 2000 presidential election recount battle, has pleaded guilty to a felony charge of conspiracy in a criminal racketeering indictment in Fulton County, Georgia. He has agreed to testify against former President Donald Trump and other co-defendants, including Rudy Giuliani, in a case involving the creation of fraudulent slates of pro-Trump electors in six states. Chesebro's journey from a mild-mannered lawyer to a key player in the Trump false electors scandal has left many wondering what led to his transformation, with some speculating that a lucrative Bitcoin investment and a desire for power played a role.
