2,000 pages of 'confidential' Dominion emails dumped on social media

In a Monday email, Lambert said she would be at the federal court hearing. She added that she was "required" to provide the records to law enforcement.

“It contained evidence of criminal acts including honest service fraud, wire fraud and foreign nationals in our election equipment while the votes were being counted," Lambert said.

Lambert and Leaf have repeatedly overstated their findings from examining the 2020 presidential election. Lambert worked on an unsuccessful lawsuit that attempted to reverse former President Donald Trump's loss in Michigan based on conspiracy theories.

Last year, The Detroit News obtained records from Leaf's election investigation in his county of about 63,000 people. As of June 2022, he had failed to uncover wrongdoing that would have affected the results, The News found.

Dominion's lawyers said the documents Lambert released showed no evidence of criminal activity.

"Best Dominion can tell, Byrne and Lambert’s xenophobic conclusion is that any email from non-U.S.-based Dominion personnel is conclusive evidence of criminal activity," the attorneys' emergency motion said.

 

As of 1 p.m. Monday, the initial tweet from @SheriffLeaf on the subject, featuring a letter from the sheriff to U.S. Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, had been shared on X more than 500 times.

Leaf claimed, in his letter, he had evidence in "my file of Serbian foreign nationals entering our election system while the votes were being counted and prior to certification."

"I look forward to Congress working for the American people and quickly addressing these election security problems while I pursue the criminal investigation with sheriffs across the country," Leaf wrote to Jordan.
