Pro-Trump lawyer surrenders in Michigan after DC arrest and Dominion leaks

Stefanie Lambert, a lawyer known for her support of former President Trump, turned herself in to Michigan authorities on Thursday in relation to her 2020 election tampering indictment.

This followed a tumultuous week during which she was labeled a fugitive and spent a night in jail after being arrested in Washington, DC.

The special prosecutor who charged Lambert in Michigan, DJ Hilson, confirmed that she surrendered on Thursday morning and appeared in Oakland County Circuit Court. Hilson stated, "The judge ruled that the Michigan bench warrant is now set aside, and she was taken into custody for the sole purpose of collecting her DNA and fingerprints."

Lambert’s attorney, Daniel Hartman, also confirmed that she surrendered as she had pledged to do after being released by a local DC judge earlier in the week. Hartman explained that Lambert’s fingerprints will not be entered into the system “until further order of the court.”

Lambert has been resisting prosecutors' efforts to obtain her fingerprints. Her surrender came after her arrest at the federal courthouse in DC and was due to a warrant issued after she failed to appear at recent hearings in her criminal case. Lambert was indicted last year in connection with an attempted election system breach in Michigan, which was one of several incidents in battleground states where Donald Trump supporters sought to prove voter-fraud theories after he lost the 2020 election.
