A Minnesota attorney has been fined $10,000 for signing Republican voters onto lawsuits against the state's Democratic officials, among them Representative Ilhan Omar, without their knowledge or permission.
Attorney Susan Shogren Smith was sanctioned by a Minnesota court on Friday after she "bamboozled" voters into being named as plaintiffs in five complaints aimed at overturning the results of the 2020 election, Pioneer Press reported.
"Susan Shogren Smith ... perpetrated a fraud against this court and, more importantly, perpetrated a fraud against these plaintiffs," Ramsey County Chief District Judge Leonardo Castro said Friday.
