Chart: Names of the “Unindicted Co-Conspirators" in Fulton

County Georgia Indictment

August 16, 2023; updated on August 17 and 25, 2023 (updates are noted in the Chart itself and
also listed below the Chart)

In a 41-count indictment unsealed on Monday, a Fulton County, Georgia grand jury charged
former President Donald Trump and 18 other defendants with a constellation of crimes. The
indictment alleges several interconnected schemes to overturn the legitimate results of Georgia’s
2020 presidential election—and efforts to conceal those schemes.

The indictment also catalogs the acts of 30 unnamed “unindicted co-conspirators,” who were
allegedly involved in “overt acts in furtherance of the conspiracy.” In the Chart below we
assembled ample clues throughout the charging document to match the anonymous co-
conspirators to possible identities. In many cases, the attribution is clear because the Indictment
references communications sent or received by a particular individual which can be compared to
communications in the publicly available record (including the final report and documents
produced by the House Select Committee and in litigation). While there is not sufficient
information to fully confirm all 30—and prosecutors are ethically barred from identifying
unindicted co-conspirators without issuing charges—we have pieced together many of their
potential identities. We also show the basis for any potential attributions in the Chart.

The Chart will be updated as more information becomes publicly available.

We welcome readers’ feedback and additional information (email address).

Individual 5 Bernard Kerik Act 9, p. 22
Act 17, p. 23
Act 20, p. 24
Act 40 in the indictment references an Act 40, p. 29
email sent on 12/08/2020, at Trump’s Act 61, p. 35
request, by Bill White to Individual 5,
Giuliani, and others, containing
information on Majority Leader of the
Georgia Senate Mike Dugan and President
Pro Tempore of the Georgia Senate Butch
Miller. A record of the email is included in
the House Select Committee’s documents
production. In addition to Giuliani and
Kerik, Molly Michael and Dan Scavino
were the other two recipients of White’s
email. It is unlikely that either of these
White House staffers are Individual 5
given neither are reported to have attended
a 12/01/2020 meeting alongside Giuliani
with Speaker of the Arizona House,
President of the Arizona Senate, and other
Arizona legislators. Kerik did attend this
meeting (per Rusty Bowers informal
congressional interview referenced in
House Select Committee final report, p.
313, n. 207).

Individual 6 Phil Waldron Act 9, p. 22


Act 17, p. 23
Act 91, p. 44
Act 91 in the indictment alleges that on
12/21/2020 Sidney Powell sent an email to
SullivanStrickler COO Maggio, asking
him to send “a copy of all data” from
Michigan to Individual 6, Individual 21,
and Individual 22. The email was disclosed
during Curling v. Raffensperger and shows
that Powell sent this email to Phil Waldron
and two linked to ASOG, Todd Sanders
and Conan Hayes (Individuals 21 and 22 –
see below). Waldron was also present
during a 11/25/2020 White House meeting
described in Act 9, where Giuliani, Kerik,
Giuliani and others met with Pennsylvania

Page 3
Unindicted Co- Possible Identity References in
Conspirator Indictment
legislators to discuss holding a special
session of the Pennsylvania General
Assembly. Waldron attended this meeting
(per Rusty Bowers informal congressional
interview referenced in House Select
Committee final report, p. 313, n. 207).
Waldron also confirmed his attendance to
the Washington Post.

Individual 7 G. Michael Brown (or else Act 18, p. 23


Act 63, p. 36
James Fitzpatrick, Shawn Act 77, p. 39
Flynn, Thomas Lane, Valerie Act 86, p. 42
McConahay)
Act 77 in the indictment alleges that Mike
Roman sent an email on 12/14/2020 to Robert
Sinners, Individual 7, and others, stating:
“Please send me an update as soon as the State
Electoral College has adjourned and all
paperwork is secured.”

The House Select Committee has the email,


which was sent to: G. Michael Brown; James
Fitzpatrick; Shawn Flynn; Thomas Lane;
Valerie Phillips McConahay; Ryan Terrill;
Andrew Iverson; Jesse Law; Robert Sinners.

Act 63 in the indictment alleges that Mike


Roman sent an email on 12/12/20 to Sinners,
Individual 7, and others: “I need a tracker for
electors.”

The House Select Committee has the email,


which was sent to: G. Michael Brown; James
Fitzpatrick; Shawn Flynn; Thomas Lane;
Valerie Phillips McConahay; Jesse Law;
Robert Sinners; Peter McGinnis

Given these two emails, Individual 7 could


only be either Brown, Fitzpatrick, Flynn, Lane,
or McConahay.

UPDATE: The evidence points most likely to


Brown, who served as deputy to Roman, the

director of election day operations for Trump’s
campaign. The other four people in the list
were responsible for single states. James
Fitzpatrick (PA), Shawn Flynn (MI), Thomas
Lane (NM), Valerie Phillips McConahay (NV)
(House Select Committee final report ch 3.4 n.
76). We thank Kevin Skoglund for this
insight.

email which was sent to Shafer, copying
the email address “[email protected].”
Brannan, one of the fake electors, was the
Treasurer of the Georgia GOP at the time.
There are two other recipients of the email
message, but they are both women and
Individual 9 is identified in the Indictment

Act 90 in the indictment references a


12/18/2020 meeting Individual 20 had with
Trump, Giuliani and Powell, in the White
House; as the House Select Committee
final report states, as well as Derek Lyon’s
committee deposition (at p. 111:3-19) and
other reporting, it was Powell, Giuliani,
Flynn, Byrne, and Emily Newman

Conspirator Indictment
advancing different “strategies and
theories” during the 12/18/2020 meeting.

Update: On Aug. 16, Byrne appeared to


deny that he is Individual 20 in an
interview with the Salt Lake Tribune, and
said he has no contact with the Georgia
investigators before the indictment. That
said, Byrne said, “Never talked to them,
never heard from them, but I happily
welcome them blaming it on me”
(emphasis added). And his denial of being
Individual 20 was based on a flawed
premise that unindicted co-conspirators are
usually cooperators (“An unindicted co-
conspirator is usually cooperating with
prosecutors to avoid imprisonment,” Byrne
said in a text message to The Tribune.
“Not me.”).

Individual 21 Todd Sanders or Conan Act 91, p. 44


Hayes

Act 91 in the indictment references an


email sent by Powell that mentioned
Sanders, Hayes, and Waldron; a record of
which was obtained in Curling v.
Raffensperger. Waldron is identified as
Individual 6.

Individual 22 Todd Sanders or Conan Act 91, p. 44


Hayes

Act 91 in the indictment references an


email sent by Powell that mentioned
Sanders, Hayes, and Waldron; a record of
which was obtained in Curling v.

Act 127, p. 59
with Harrison Floyd and
others.

Act 115 in the indictment references a call


from Harrison Floyd to Individual 23 on
01/03/2021 at 8:11pm.

Act 127 in the indictment references a


four-way call between Harrison Floyd,
Trevian Kutti, Stephen Lee, and Individual
23 on 01/05/2021 at 12:14pm.

Individual 24 Alex Cruce Act 143, p. 64

Act 143 in the indictment references


Individual 24 flying into Coffee County
with Scott Hall. Alex Cruce admitted to
this during his deposition in Curling v.
Raffensperger (p. 46:6-16).

Individual 25 Doug Logan Act 150, p. 66


Act 154, p. 67
Act 154 in the indictment references Misty
Hampton allowing Individual 25 and
Individual 29 to access non-public areas of
the Coffee County Board of Elections and
Registration Office on 01/18/2021. Videos
reported by ABC News show her letting in
Douglas Logan and Jeff Lenberg on that
date. Act 150 in the indictment references
Individual 25 downloading data taken from
Coffee County and stored on
SullivanStrickler’s ShareFile. Individual
25 downloaded data on 01/09/2021,
01/10/2021, 01/11/2021, and 01/13/2021.
Activity logs show Logan downloading
data on these days.

Unindicted Co- Possible Identity References in
Conspirator Indictment
Individual 26 Probably Todd Sanders, a.k.a. Act 151, p. 66
“Scott T.” (a second time)
[Update]

It is important to note here that the


indictment refers to Individual 26 as
someone “whose identity is unknown to
the Grand Jury” (emphasis added).

With advice from Kevin Skoglund, we are


able to determine that it is most likely
Todd Sanders (who also appears as
Individual 21 or 22 above).

Act 151 of the indictment states that


Individual 26 unlawfully accessed and
downloaded the Coffee County data on
January 9, 10, 11, 18, and 19, 2021.

Activity logs show Sanders downloaded


data on these days. Additionally, the
activity logs do not show Sanders
downloaded the data on February 25 and
26, which Individual 27 did.

The Grand Jury may not have identified


Sanders because he used “Scott T.” as his
login name (Skoglund’s declaration (§ 59)
and Doug London’s deposition (108-
109)).

Note: Skoglund’s declaration (§ 75) in


Curling v. Raffensperger identifies six
individuals who downloaded election
software between 1/10/21 and 2/25/21:
Doug Logan, Sanders, Hayes, James
Penrose, Pospieszalski, and Pulitzer. J.
Alex Halderman’s declaration (§ 13)
identifies five individuals—the same six
except for Pulitzer—who downloaded
Coffee County data in January and
February 2021.

Page 10
Unindicted Co- Possible Identity References in
Conspirator Indictment
Individual 27 Probably Conan Hayes (a Act 152, p. 67
second time) [Update]

It is important to note here that the


indictment refers to Individual 27 as
someone “whose identity is unknown to
the Grand Jury” (emphasis added).

With advice from Kevin Skoglund, we are


able to determine that it is most likely
Conan Hayes (who also appears as
Individual 21 or 22 above).

Act 152 of the indictment states that


Individual 27 unlawfully accessed and
downloaded the Coffee County data on
January 10, 12, 13 and February 25 and
26.

Activity logs show Hayes downloaded data


on these days. Additionally, the activity
logs do not show Hayes downloaded the
data on January 9, which Individual 26
did.

Note: Skoglund’s declaration (§ 75) in


Curling v. Raffensperger identifies six
individuals who downloaded election
software between 1/10/21 and 2/25/21:
Doug Logan, Sanders, Hayes, James
Penrose, Pospieszalski, and Pulitzer. J.
Alex Halderman’s declaration (§ 13)
identifies five individuals—the same six
except for Pulitzer—who downloaded
Coffee County data in January and
February 2021.

Individual 28 Jim Penrose Act 153, p. 67


Act 155, p. 67
Act 155 in the indictment alleges that
Individual 28 sent an email on 04/22/2021
to SullivanStrickler COO Paul Maggio,

Page 11
Unindicted Co- Possible Identity References in
Conspirator Indictment
asking him to send voting data taken from
Coffee County to an attorney associated
with Sidney Powell. The email was sent by
Jim Penrose, and copied Stephanie
Lambert, and it was accounted for in
Curling v. Raffensperger (see Gabriel
Sterling’s deposition, at p. 286:22-25;
Kevin Skoglund declaration, at § 77).
Penrose was also the one person who
downloaded all voting data from
SullivanStrickler’s ShareFile on
01/13/2021, according to activity logs
(p.6), which Act 153 in the indictment
alleges.

Individual 29 Jeffrey Lenberg Act 154, p. 67

Act 154 in the indictment references Misty


Hampton allowing two individuals to
access non-public areas of the Coffee
County Board of Elections and
Registration Office on 01/18/2021. Videos
reported on by media show her letting in
Douglas Logan and Jeff Lenberg on that
date. Because Individual 25 is likely Doug
Logan, Individual 29 is likely Jeffrey
Lenberg.

Individual 30 Stefanie Lambert Act 155, p. 67

Act 155 in the indictment alleges that Jim


Penrose sent an email to SullivanStrickler
COO Paul Maggio on 04/22/2021, asking
“to transmit” all Coffee County data “to
unindicted co-conspirator Individual 30.”
The email is accounted for in Curling v.
Raffensperger, which indicates Stefanie
Lambert was to receive the data. Penrose
wrote to send the materials to “the same
address as before” and “[i]nvoice Stefanie
Lambert for the work like last time,” and a

Page 12

FedEx package was sent to Lambert– See
Gabriel Sterling’s deposition, at p. 286:
22-25; Kevin Skoglund declaration, at §§
77-78).

(with appreciation to Kevin Skoglund for advice)
