According to court documents, Kenneth Chesebro, Jim Troupis and Mike Roman are charged with one count each. They are alleged to have delivered forged Wisconsin election documents to a Pennsylvania congressional representative, who in turn was to forward them to former Vice President Mike Pence on January 6, 2021.

The three defendants in this case are due to appear in court on September 19. They face one count punishable by up to six years in prison and $10,000 in fines.
