Hero of the Left, Rebekah Jones, pleads guilty to computer crimes

[HOTAIR] You probably don’t remember her name, but you remember why she is famous: Rebekah Jones was the Florida Department of Health employee who rose to Left-wing stardom for attacking Governor Ron DeSantis for his COVID policies.

She was fired from the Florida Department of Health for insubordination and spent almost two years claiming it was because she was a whistleblower fighting DeSantis’ fraudulent COVID-19 reporting practices and his ineffective policies.

Well, on Friday she admitted to being a criminal. She hijacked the Florida Department of Health’s computer system, lied about it, and stole data from the system. She was a fraud and a liar.

Jones became a hero to the Left and inspired other Left-wingers to attack DeSantis as well. Jones ran for Congress because...well, of course she did. Strike while the iron is hot and all that. The Left was in love, so cash in!

Jones was arrested last year—her entire campaign for Congress took place while she was under investigation and awaiting trial—and she resolved the case Friday by admitting her crime. She has a "deferred prosecution," which is like a plea bargain but not quite. She admits her crime without being convicted in court, and if she abides by the agreement she will not be prosecuted. Frankly, I had never heard of such an arrangement, but I am not a lawyer.

#1 ....Without time as a guest of the State of Florida and/or a fine of truly massive proportions...well, for all intents and purposes, she's walking away.

#2 Actually, this works well. She has delusions of being a political candidate and will circulate for a couple election cycles anyway as a dead end for dem money and votes.

#3 I don’t think that type of agreement is available to most of us.
