Georgia: Reality Leigh Winner to Appear in Court Tuesday
--------------------------------------------------------

In Georgia, U.S. intelligence contractor Reality Leigh Winner is slated
to appear in court today in Augusta. She's pleaded not guilty on charges
of leaking a top-secret document claiming Russian military intelligence
conducted a cyberattack on at least one U.S. voting software company
just days before the November 2016 election. During today's court
hearing, Winner's lawyers are set to ask the judge to exclude her
statements to FBI agents the day she was arrested, arguing she was
denied her Miranda rights.
