Trump allies disrupt 2020 election defamation case by leaking Dominion emails

A cadre of pro-Trump election deniers has disrupted one of Dominion Voting Systems’ massive defamation lawsuits by leaking the company’s internal emails to a sympathetic Michigan sheriff who is investigating supposed fraud in the 2020 election.

The controversy erupted when attorney Stefanie Lambert provided the confidential Dominion documents to Barry County Sheriff Dar Leaf, who has embraced conspiracy theories about the 2020 election and has used his office to hunt for fraud. He has since posted more than 2,000 internal Dominion documents on his social media account.
