Former Donald Trump attorney Sidney Powell has pleaded guilty in the Georgia election subversion case, one day before her trial was set to start.

Fulton County prosecutors are recommending a sentence of six years probation. Powell will also be required to testify at future trials and write an apology letter to the citizens of Georgia.

As part of her guilty plea, Powell is admitting her role in the January 2021 breach of election systems in rural Coffee County, Georgia. With the help of local GOP officials, a group of Trump supporters accessed and copied information from the county's election systems in hopes of somehow proving that the election was rigged against Trump.

Her attorneys had vehemently rejected prosecutors' claims that she orchestrated the Coffee County breach. They've said at pretrial hearings that prosecutors are "incorrect" and that "the evidence will show that she was not the driving force behind" the incident.

Powell is now the second person in the sprawling racketeering case to plead guilty. Bail bondsman Scott Hall already pleaded guilty and agreed to testify at future trials. The other 17 defendants, including Trump, have pleaded not guilty.

Pro-Trump attorney Kenneth Chesebro's trial is slated to begin Friday with jury selection.
