Mesa County Clerk and Recorder Tina Peters was hit with another arrest warrant Thursday for allegedly violating the terms of her bond.
Peters was accused of sending an email to a government employee in Mesa County, Colorado, on Wednesday, flouting a bond agreement that prohibited her from communicating with workers in that office. She turned herself in to the Pitkin County Sheriff's Office Thursday night and was released after just over an hour, according to documents obtained by CBS."I sent out a courtesy email, a blanket email to all the clerks in the state.
"If you are on the list of those counties for a hand recount, you will be notified to coordinate the day/time that is mutually agreed upon. Thank you for your kind cooperation," the email read, per the report. Last week, a judge approved a separate arrest warrant against Peters for traveling out of state without the required permission, a violation of the conditions of her bond. The judge lifted the warrant after Peters's attorneys argued they believed the court had granted her permission to leave the state to speak at a conference of"constitutional sheriffs" in Las Vegas.
