It has recently been revealed that three Trump sycophants were arrested and charged with manipulating voting machines in Michigan. The accused individuals are Riley Davis, William Fred Lambert, and Cynthia Marie Stevens, all of whom have been ardent supporters of former President Donald Trump. The trio have been charged with seventeen felony counts of bribery and dualing, and they could face up to twenty-five years in prison if convicted.
The investigation into the alleged manipulation began last December when the Michigan State Police were tipped off about suspicious activity surrounding the voting machines in several Michigan counties. Upon further investigation, officials found out that the aforementioned trio had paid off election officials in order to access the voting machines and change the results. Federal agents believe the suspects tampered with a total of twelve voting machines in Michigan, which included seven in Detroit, two in Grand Rapids, and three in Flint.
While the investigation uncovered evidence that these suspects manipulated voting machines, officials stress that there is no evidence to suggest that they successfully changed the outcome of the election. However, the defendants have stated that they had intended to use the scam to manufacture enough votes to ensure that Trump would win the state of Michigan.
The investigation revealed that the trio made cash payments in exchange for access to the voting machines, and that they had also offered to pay election officials to help them tamper with the results. Furthermore, agents have stated that the suspects had also set up multiple shell companies in order to conceal their activities.
The news of the alleged manipulation has sent shockwaves through the political world, with many condemning the actions of the group. U.S. Attorney Patrick Miles Jr. stated that “these allegations are a serious violation of federal law and those responsible will be prosecuted accordingly”.
If convicted, the defendants could face up to twenty-five years in prison. It remains to be seen whether or not the case will go to trial, but for now, it appears that the investigation has uncovered one of the potentially most significant acts of voter fraud in the United States’ history.
