NextImg:Former Trump attorney Jenna Ellis says senior official said Trump was 'not going to leave' White House

Former Trump attorney Jenna Ellis told prosecutors that former President Donald Trump was "not going to leave" the White House in 2021 no matter what.

As part of her plea deal, Ellis gave proffer sessions with Fulton County attorneys — confidential video interviews, portions of which were obtained by ABC News. In her interview, the attorney told prosecutors that senior Trump official Dan Scavino told her that the then-president would refuse to leave office despite losing the election to Joe Biden.

Steve Sadow, Trump's lead counsel in the Fulton County election interference case, dismissed the "purported private conversation" as "absolutely meaningless."

"The only salient fact to this nonsense line of inquiry is that President Trump left the White House on January 20, 2021, and returned to Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida," he said in a statement to ABC News. "If this is the type of bogus, ridiculous 'evidence' DA Willis intends to rely upon, it is one more reason that this political, travesty of a case must be dismissed."

Ellis is one of four co-defendants, out of 18 indicted alongside Trump, to plead guilty. She pleaded guilty to making efforts to provide false statements to Georgia lawmakers about election fraud.
