🚨 SITREP: THE MESA COUNTY CRIME SCENE (TINA PETERS APPEAL)
DATE: January 14, 2026
SUBJECT: THE "TRUSTED BUILD" COVER-UP & THE FEDERAL DUTY
STATUS: ACTIVE LEGAL WARFARE
​THE HEADLINE:
They put Tina Peters in prison for 9 years not because she broke the law, but because she caught them deleting the evidence. Today, in the Colorado Court of Appeals, the truth about the "Trusted Build" is finally on the record.
​1. THE "SMOKING GUN" (THE FORENSIC IMAGES)
The media says Tina Peters "leaked passwords." That is the distraction. Here is the reality being argued in court right now:
​The Setup: In May 2021, the Secretary of State ordered a "Trusted Build" software update on the voting machines.

The Trap: Peters knew this update would overwrite the 2020 election logs.
​The Evidence: She authorized a Forensic Image (Snapshot) of the hard drive before the update and after the update.
​The Result: The comparison proves the "Trusted Build" acted as Digital BleachBit. It wiped the adjudication logs and database history.
​Why It Matters: Without those images, there would be no proof that the 2020 data was destroyed. She didn't steal identity; she preserved the crime scene.
​2. THE LEGAL SHIELD (52 U.S.C. § 20701)
The prosecution argues she violated security protocols. Her defense is dropping a Federal MOAB:
​The Law: Federal Law (52 U.S.C. § 20701) requires all election records be preserved for 22 months.
​The Conflict: The State ordered a software update (deletion) only 6 months after the election.
​The Defense: You cannot charge a Clerk for obeying Federal Law over a corrupt State order. The "Security Protocol" was an order to destroy evidence.

​3. THE PARDON PARADOX
Donald Trump pardoned her in December 2025. Colorado is refusing to honor it, claiming a President can't pardon state crimes.
​The Counter-Move: Her lawyers are citing the Whiskey Rebellion (1795). President Washington pardoned rebels for state crimes to heal the nation. If the court denies this, they are declaring war on the concept of the Presidency itself.
​THE BOTTOM LINE:
Tina Peters is the first political prisoner of the 2020 aftermath. She is sitting in a cell because she refused to let the history of what happened in Mesa County be deleted.
​Today, the question isn't whether she is guilty.
The question is: Is it a crime to save the evidence?

​EYES ON COLORADO. JUSTICE FOR TINA. 🇺🇸⚖️🦅
