What Really Happened with Tina Peters? Why are so Many Coloradans Calling for Her Release?

There is a lot of confusion about Tina Peters and what happened to her.

Her case was politicized from the beginning and the media hasn’t provided a clear picture of why she was arrested and sentenced.

Now, a court in Colorado is considering the problems with her sentencing and Governor Jared Polis is considering intervening in reducing her sentence.

So what really happened, why is the court considering her appeal and why are so many Coloradans calling for her release?

James Wiley is a leader in Colorado’s Election Integrity Movement and now a Republican candidate for Colorado Secretary of State.

In this video, James Wiley provides an update on the Tina Peters case, explains what happened with her case and shares his vision for secure elections.
