WATCH: Election Denier Who Trump Tried to Pardon Caught On Camera in Prison Fight

Tina Peters — the disgraced former county clerk for Mesa, Colorado who went to prison for election tampering — was caught by prison security cameras getting into an altercation with another inmate. Several Denver-area news stations reported the footage on Monday, which showed the inmate immediately confronting Peters when she walked into a room. Peters and her fellow jailbird immediately started squabbling, with both women grabbing at one another.

Peters pushed the woman back and appeared to put her hands around the inmate’s neck; she then leaned in, seemed to tell the inmate something, before pushing her and walking away. Both women seemed fairly calm about the whole thing immediately after. “No one was hurt and the other inmate has been moved into different housing of the prison,” Fox 31 anchor Drew Engelbart reported on Tuesday.

The minor skirmish happened at La Vista Correctional Facility in Pueblo, Colorado, on January 18.

NBC 9 reporter Kyle Clark pointed out that this was not the first scuffle for Peters. Clark shared a clip on X of Peters seemingly kicking a police officer who was serving a warrant in 2022.

In the video obtained by 9News, another female inmate approaches Peters and is partially obscured by a door for approximately one second. Peters is then seen pushing the other inmate backward across the room with her hands appearing to be at the other inmate’s neck or shoulders.

This is not the first physical altercation involving Peters which has been caught on tape. In 2022, she appeared to kick a police officer serving a warrant. Court documents say officers told Peters "Do not kick! Do you understand!?" and "Please relax," to which she yelled, 'No!'"

Looks like a violent criminal THUG that needs a much longer prison sentence. Should we send her to El Salvador?

puts an end to any talk of the Colorado governor granting clemency due to the bullsh!t pressure of the FAKE pardon from Cantaloupe Caligula. Why he's even considering that is beyond me. It's rather obvious this person is incapable of self-control.

And yes, I realize the orange slug has taken measures to punish Colorado, but giving in to his crybaby whims is NEVER the answer. He's a bottomless pit of wants that can never be satisfied by any level of appeasement.

This is part of the clemency bid. Check the other inmate's commissary for strange deposits.
