“Boris Epshteyn, who was arraigned Tuesday on election interference charges in Arizona, has played many roles for former President Donald Trump,” the New York Times reports.
“He routinely surfaces as a lesser character in Trump-related indictments, court records show. Election cases in Georgia and Wisconsin identify him as ‘Individual 3’ and ‘Individual A.’ In one federal case pending against Mr. Trump, he appears as ‘Person 5.’ In another, his email traffic matches that of ‘Co-conspirator 6.’”
“But in Arizona, he is getting a featured role. His indictment there stems from work he did behind the scenes to try to keep Mr. Trump in power after his 2020 election loss. Shepherding a small group of advisers, he helped oversee a plan to deploy fake electors in seven battleground states lost by Mr. Trump, documents show.”
