Madison-Rankin District Attorney John Bramlett issued the following statement.
Madison and Rankin Counties’ District Attorney John K. Bramlett, Jr., announced today that Courtney Rainey was sentenced by Judge Dewey Arthur to fifteen years with three suspended for the crime of witness intimidation. Rainey was tried in front of a Madison County jury on July 30, 2019 where she was found guilty of one count of witness intimidation. This conviction stems from an incident where Ms. Rainey attempted to intimidate a witness into changing the statement the witness had previously given to investigators during the Canton Voter Fraud investigation. District Attorney Bramlett stated, “Witness intimidation is an extremely serious felony; it strikes at the very heart of our system of justice. We completely support Judge Arthur’s sentence, and hope this sends a clear message that witness intimidation simply will not be tolerated in Madison or Rankin counties.” |
