A judge has found Georgia Republican Party official Brian Pritchard guilty of illegally voting nine times over several years. Pritchard has falsely asserted Democrats had stolen the 2020 election through fraud.
Administrative Law Judge Lisa Boggs wrote in her Wednesday decision that Pritchard, the Georgia GOP’s first vice chairman, violated state election laws by voting while on probation for forgery and other felonies, and that his explanations were neither “credible or convincing.”
Pritchard must pay a $5,000 fine and $375.14 in investigative costs incurred by the court. Boggs also ordered that Pritchard “be publicly reprimanded for his conduct” by the State Election Board, which sought the sanctions against him.
She just won her appeal and they threw out the sentence
It took 6 years of worry that a 5 year sentence would be handed down… fully broken Judicial system here in the US and I don’t see any solution other than …
Though she did also have to go through 6 years of appeals and hearings, legal costs, and spent some time in jail too. While she was in jail for a few months I believe she almost lost her house. She went through a whole trial and a jury even convicted her, it took an appeals court to over ride the jury verdict saying the jury erred. It’s pretty ridiculous that all that happened after just a provisional ballot was cast and the election worker told her she was eligible. Prosecutors obviously had a political agenda here.
