Tina Peters – the former clerk of Mesa County, Colorado, and the state’s most prominent 2020 election denier – was sentenced by a judge Monday to home detention and community service after she was found guilty last month of obstructing a government operation. Peters was sentenced to four months of home detention with an ankle monitor and will be required to complete 120 hours of community service within one year. She was also ordered to pay a $750 fine.
” As CNN previously reported, Peters was arrested by Grand Junction police in February 2022 at a local business while state investigators attempted to execute a search warrant. She did not cooperate with investigators as they tried to seize an iPad sought in the search warrant, according to an affidavit from the Grand Junction Police Department. Peters stepped in between an officer and a patron who allegedly blocked investigators from accessing the table, according to the affidavit.
