Sidney Powell accepted a plea bargain in Fulton County on the morning of Oct. 19, pleading guilty to six misdemeanors related to election interference in the 2020 presidential election in Georgia.

The deal didn’t require her to plead guilty to the racketeering charge on which she and 18 codefendants, including former President Donald Trump, were indicted on Aug. 14.
