Gov. Jared Polis reduces Tina Peters’ sentence, says she will be released June 1
Polis said Peters will have served more than 600 days by June 1 after cutting her nearly nine-year sentence in half.
- On Friday, Colorado Governor Jared Polis commuted former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters' sentence to 4.5 years, making her eligible for parole on June 1, 2026.
- A 2024 jury convicted Peters for facilitating unauthorized access to Mesa County voting machines in 2021, an effort to support President Donald Trump's baseless 2020 election fraud claims.
- Following an appeals court ruling that the trial judge improperly considered Peters' protected speech during sentencing, Peters acknowledged mistakes in her clemency application for the first time.
- Defying pleas from Democratic lawmakers and Attorney General Phil Weiser, Polis proceeded with the commutation despite intense pressure from the Trump administration to release Peters.
- Critics argue the move sets an unfair precedent for other inmates, while supporters of the election denier movement celebrate Peters' release as vindication for a political prisoner.
