[According to a plea deal filed in August and unsealed last week], Bisignano “shall cooperate fully, truthfully, completely and forthrightly” with federal, state, and local investigations into Jan. 6.

Multiple members of the extremist “Oath Keepers” militia group pleaded guilty in July and agreed to cooperate with investigators, and a member of the far-right “Proud Boys” has also agreed to cooperate as part of a plea deal, perhaps even against other members of the group, according to a New York Times report.

Although Bisignano has apparently been cooperating with the government since at least August, she has not always been cooperative with court orders, as Nichols noted in a Dec. 14 minute order after Bisignano failed to appear.

“In light of Defense Counsel’s tardiness and the Defendant’s nonappearance in the Status Conference held earlier today on December 14, 2021 at 10:00am, it is ORDERED that the Status Conference is rescheduled for December 21, 2021 at 1:00pm,” Nichols wrote in a minute order. “This is not the first time timely attendance has been a problem in this case. Defense Counsel and Defendant are admonished that additional failures to appear timely will be looked upon even more unfavorably.”
