“Powell was charged with racketeering and other counts for her role in a Coffee County election system data breach.

Under a deal announced Thursday in Fulton County Superior Court, she will receive six years probation and pay a $6,000 fine. She also agreed to pay $2,700 in restitution to the state and to testify truthfully in the case. And Powell wrote a letter of apology to the citizens of Georgia.”

“She pleaded guilty to reduced charges the day before the jury was set to be selected in her trial, according to The Associated Press. “

I am not sure what the terms of the probation are – presumably no comment or action involving any election in Georgia? The other terms are probably along the lines of “oh for God’s sake, here!”

Anyone know why a promise to “testify truthfully” in the case is any different from testifying under oath?

Funny thing, plea deals – doesn’t matter if you are innocent- the punishment is the process, right?

Onwards!
