Reality Winner Denied Prison Release Despite Contracting COVID-19
Via a reader tip, the government leaker, Reality Winner is trying to get herself out of prison by using COVID as an excuse:
Reality Leigh Winner, a convicted leaker who recently contracted the novel coronavirus in federal prison, received further pushback from the U.S. government Friday in her bid to be released early.
The Department of Justice said in a court filing that Winner recently tested positive for COVID-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus, but appears to be asymptomatic and should stay imprisoned.
In a supplemental brief entered in federal appeals court, the Justice Department said it stands by the claims it previously made against granting Winner’s request for compassionate release.

You can read more at the link, but she was sentenced to 63 months in prison for leaking classified information to the media and I hope she does every single month. She had the potential to lead a great life with her education and a good job and instead decided to blow it all with Trump Derangement Syndrome.
Good. Solitary confinement 4U bish.
Something I’ve always wondered on here…
Does anyone else when they post something in the Open Thread and then GI gives it a proper post with the lil “via a reader tip”, think to themselves “me.. I’m the reader…”?
🙂
Smokes, it’s mostly your tips. We know it. My stuff is far less interesting.
Heh I haven’t been on here on a long time. Seems CH left during my absence…
Ha! Not gone… just busy.
The world has become an interesting place and my attentions are required elsewhere.
