On February 27th we came together as citizens, as concerned supporters of Reality Winner and as a campaign in response to Billie’s call. Billie Winner-Davis, Reality’s mother, had been maintaining a silence in hopes that it would avoid further injustices to her daughter. But once Reality was denied for the fourth and last possible chance to get bail, meaning she is now jailed indefinitely, Billie decided that was enough.
Responding to Billie’s public call for people to attend the pre-trial hearing on February 27th, supporters drove to Augusta, Georgia from as far away as New York state. So many people contributed and rallied support for this event, that we wanted to give you a report back on how much your presence and support made a difference in that Georgia courtroom to both Reality and her parents.

Billy Winner-Davis: I think we felt really, really supported for the first time. The other hearings that we’ve gone to, it’s just been us so to have other people, other supporters there, we had an entire row filled and then we knew that there were people outside as well. That felt so good to me and we did invite everybody back to the house after the court hearing . . . It was really a nice time for people to get to know us, to get to see the infamous house and the infamous interrogation room.
When everybody saw the room, they absolutely knew that what some of the FBI agents had testified to were false because that room, the way that that room is setup, it just didn’t happen the way that they were saying . . . yeah, I think it made a huge difference to the people who were able to join us afterwards and then Reality did call while everybody was there . . .
