ATLANTA — Former Trump campaign lawyer Sidney Powell pleaded guilty in Fulton County Superior Court Thursday to conspiring to interfere in Georgia’s 2020 presidential election.

Powell is the most high-profile defendant among the 19 charged in the case — including Republican former President Donald Trump — to admit to her role in trying to overturn Democrat Joe Biden’s victory in Georgia over Trump. She pleaded guilty to six misdemeanor counts of conspiracy to commit intentional interference with the performance of election duties for her role in tampering with election equipment in Coffee County in January 2021.
