He pleaded guilty and since then maybe he's trying to make amends.
That's the thinking of former House Jan. 6 Committee investigator Temidayo Aganga-Williams when it comes to pro-Trump attorney and now-convicted felon Kenneth Chesebro.
The disgraced attorney's peeling back of the curtain into Trumpworld on the concerted effort and many hands involved to deliver critical documents to D.C. in time for then-Vice President Mike Pence to potentially halt the certification of the 2020 presidential results to secure Biden, is something that Aganga-Williams believes is a remarkable admission.
"This leaked recording today shows he's really leaning into the role of cooperator," said Aganga-Williams during an appearance on CNN. "I mean he's pointing fingers, giving long-form answers, and he's having the coming to Jesus moment where he's accepting responsibility and helping the prosecution teams across the country."

Chesebro pleaded guilty in October for his hand in attempting to overturn Trump’s loss in the 2020 election in Georgia.
It remains unclear what exactly Chesebro has disclosed beyond the audio recorded snippets and emails that CNN reported. But the gravity of it should have some of the other 18 defendants, including former President Donald Trump, facing RICO charges in Fulton County for attempting to overturn the election results, becoming very concerned.
"I think if I were his co-defendants, I'm incredibly worried because right now the government's scope of evidence will be expanding," he said. "And now any time you can have someone in the room testifying to what they heard, especially when that's a co-defendant, that's all going to be admissible testimony."
"That stuff's going to be able to come in against the former president and Giuliani and others," he added.
