Tina Peters was back in court Thursday for arguments on several pending motions. U.S. Magistrate Judge Scott Varholak is considering Peters' First Amendment claims on her Habeas Corpus motion filed earlier this year.
Peters is arguing that her detention is unconstitutional, as she was denied bond pending appeal. Her federal petition cites the trial court's inflammatory statements about her incarceration, including, "Prison is for those folks where we send people who are a danger to all of us, whether it be by the pen or the sword or the word of the mouth."
Judge Barrett's sentencing monologue was egregious, and Peters has a strong appeal for bias and over-sentencing, matters which remain in the Colorado Courts. The matter before U.S. Magistrate Judge Scott Varholak is whether Barrett locking Peters up due to what she might say is a violation of her First Amendment rights.
During the short hearing, Judge Varholak ruled immediately on several motions, granting admission of an amicus brief from Peters' supporters, deeming it novel but useful. He also granted motions to strike foreign whistleblower testimony about US election systems, deeming them irrelevant to the matter before the court. The testimony would have supported Peters' argument that what she *might* say is true -- strengthening her First Amendment-based habeas claims. The court also denied Peters' motion to take notice of the Dominion Voting Systems sale, deeming it irrelevant to the matter before the court.
Tina Peters remains incarcerated, but the judge indicated an expedited ruling on the full petition, possibly by early November.

Thank you for reporting this. The writer of the Amicus Brief was Tipsohere Maras. She wrote it brilliantly. Free speech matters to everyone and everyone should be helping Tina, it helps us all.
Colorado used to be a great state to live in. Now it is just another radical left-wing DemocRAT schitt hole thanks to all of the dog schitt liberals that have moved into the state and radical left-turd, woke, LGBTQ loving officials, like the current Governor and others that have been elected to office.
So this is what Colorado calls it Justice System?????????
The fact that Trump is not all over this -- if nothing else but verbal support -- reveals what he really is. J6 supporters still have not been made whole.
This lady is a hero. The real deal. I am proud this American had the strength of character and will to "not go along" with the bad guys.
