Tina Peters, the election-denying former Colorado clerk, avoids jail in obstruction case

GRAND JUNCTION — Tina Peters, the former Mesa County clerk accused of illegally accessing her election system, avoided jail time for a misdemeanor obstruction conviction in another case on Monday. County Judge Bruce Raaum sentenced Peters to 120 hours of community service and four months of home detention with an ankle monitor for trying to prevent authorities from taking an iPad she allegedly used to video a court hearing. However, the sentence was immediately put on hold while Peters appeals it, The Daily Sentinel reported. Peters, who has become a prominent national figure in the election conspiracy movement, had faced up to six months in jail.
