ATLANTA—Kenneth Chesebro, a former legal adviser to Donald Trump, pleaded guilty Friday to one felony charge in an agreement to testify for the prosecution in the Georgia racketeering case against the former president and others.
Chesebro is the second lawyer affiliated with Trump’s 2020 campaign, and third co-defendant, to cut a deal with prosecutors, after Sidney Powell, a legal adviser who played a leading role in the effort to reverse Trump’s election loss, struck a similar deal Thursday. Powell is also expected to cooperate with the prosecution.
