Frustrated judge visibly facepalms as Tina Peters rambles about 2020 election conspiracy theories, gets angry when she says he knows they’re true

The judge overseeing the sentencing hearing of the first election official convicted of a felony over 2020 election conspiracy theories was clearly annoyed by the defendant in court on Thursday.

Tina Peters, 68, is the former county clerk of Mesa County, Colorado. In August, she was convicted on seven counts of engaging in a security breach — related to unauthorized access to voting machines.

The condemned woman opted to address the court. Exercising her right to speak, Peters, for nearly an hour, rambled on about various injustices as she saw them — and was unrepentant about the false claims advanced by her and other fellow travelers of Donald Trump.

The defendant’s fiery allocution substantially backfired. In the end, Peters was sentenced to spend a total of nine years behind bars.
