Colorado Officials Resist Pressure to Transfer Tina Peters to Federal Custody

In a decisive stance, Colorado officials have confirmed that Tina Peters, the former county clerk imprisoned for her role in election conspiracy, will remain in state custody despite requests from the Trump administration for her transfer to federal custody. A bipartisan coalition of county clerks and state officials has called on Governor Jared Polis to reject these transfer requests, voicing concerns over potential pardons and the implications of such a move on the judicial system. Peters, who has faced harsh treatment including solitary confinement, continues to draw attention and support from segments of the community, while legal authorities emphasize the importance of maintaining her state custody amid increasing political pressure.
