"Lee wasn't just a pastor who happened to have a political affinity for Trump. He actively misused his authority as a minister to try to gain access to [Ruby] Freeman against her will -- and to dissuade police from intervening."

Lee drove to Georgia from Chicago and targeted election worker Ruby Lee, attempting to intimidate her, and is now facing charges for that reason.

It's brave to say "I am not well " when you are not well and to keep going despite being unwell is strong.
