Tina Peters Mesa County

Tina Peters, the former Mesa County Clerk, has been sentenced to nine years in prison following her involvement in the breach of election equipment. The courtroom drama unfolded yesterday with Judge Matthew Barrett remarking, “You are as defiant a defendant as this court has ever seen.”

The breach, which Peters used to promote election conspiracy theories and solicit funds for her defense, was found to have cost Mesa County approximately $1.4 million in crisis management and reputational damage. Despite her claims, no evidence of election fraud was discovered. These events have prompted Colorado to implement stricter state laws regarding election security, reports Nancy Lofholm from the courthouse.
