On October 1, 2025, former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters posted a long screed to her “X”/Twitter account commemorating the “364 days of injustice” that have elapsed since she was sentenced to prison on multiple felonies related to tampering with election equipment. Tina is still claiming she has done nothing wrong and is being politically persecuted. She writes that the state “never
had jurisdiction to indict, prosecute or imprison me.” She says the judges who have denied her bond while she awaits a hearing on her appeal of her sentence are “not normal” and “were put in place illegally.” She says the state of Colorado could be “criminally prosecuted for this.”
She also writes,
“The President has demanded by release four times — twice on Twitter, twice verbally. Why is the DOJ defying Trump’s demands? Get off your asses and get me out!
Prison inmates in Colorado are not permitted to have personal access to the internet or social media platforms.
Access to the internet is tightly restricted and closely monitored in prison, and is fee-based. An inquiry to the Colorado Department of Corrections about how Tina managed to get this post on “X” got a response from Alondra Gonzalez, Director of Communications for the Department of Corrections, who wrote,
“I can confirm that inmates in the custody of the Colorado Department of Corrections do not have direct access to the internet or any social media platforms. This is a strict policy for the safety and security of our facilities.
The common method for such posts is for an inmate to communicate a message to a third party through an approved channel, such as a phone call or letter, and that individual then posts it on the inmate’s behalf.
Thank you for bringing this specific post to our attention. We will have our staff review the circumstances of the communication to ensure all departmental policies were followed.”
There’s no word yet on the findings of the Department of Corrections’ review of Tina’s post.
Get used to it Tina. You’ve got years & years left!
Who is the guy with 39 convictions who murdered a child after he was released?
A couple of observations:
1. She still doesn’t understand or accept that what she did was wrong. Or that SHE was (and still is) wrong about the integrity of Colorado’s election system.
2. I doubt that even the politically connected want to be associated with TP’s mindless ranting. Even Boebert distanced herself from TP pretty quickly.
The entitled arrogance of this convicted criminal felon is amazing!
She hasn’t learned jack…
