Check out the "princess" reports to prison... Thought she wouldn't have too go.. "white and blonde". SURPRISE!!! Just days before Christmas, a north Texas realtor who took a private plane to D.C. on Jan 6. to attend the “Stop the Steal” rally — and later stormed the U.S. Capitol with a mob of her fellow Trump supporters — has reported to the facility where she’ll begin serving her sentence, the Dallas Observer reports. Jenna Ryan will serve a total of 60 days at Bryan Federal Prison Camp in Bryan, Texas. Ryan made numerous headlines in the wake of the Capitol riot. Back in March, Ryan fired off a series of tweets complaining that her story is being ignored in “conservative alt news,” which she describes as outlets like the Gateway Pundit and InfoWars. When someone chimed in on her thread and told her that she’s “goin’ to jail,” Ryan fired back with an explanation as to why that won’t happen. “Definitely not going to jail,” she wrote. “Sorry I have blonde hair white skin a great job a great future and I’m not going to jail. Sorry to rain on your hater parade. I did nothing wrong.”deadstate.org/capitol-rioter-who-said-shes-too-blonde-and-too-white-to-go-to-prison-reports-to-prison-to-start-her-sentence/ |

And this one took a stolen police baton as a sovunier ... MAGA rioter kept baton he used to attack cops as a memento – and his judge isn’t impressed Ray Hartmann December 30, 2021 A Florida man used a police baton to strike an officer during the January 6 Capitol insurrection and then kept it as a possible “trophy,” newly released court records show. Mason Joel Courson, 26, of Tamarac, Florida had been arrested December 15 on multiple assault charges for an “assault of a Metropolitan Police Department officer who was beaten by a group armed with a baton, flagpole and crutch,” according to the Associated Press. Courson also was accused of having taken part in “heave ho” efforts to breach a tunnel at the Capitol, the report said. But today, Courson’s hometown newspaper -- the Tamarac Talk-- advanced the story with this reporting from December 23 court records that had not previously received coverage: “Prosecutors argued before a federal judge that Courson posed too serious a threat to the public to be released on bond, and the judge hearing the evidence agreed, court records show,” the newspaper reported. “I find it significant that [Courson] kept the baton with which he assaulted [the officer],” U.S. Magistrate Judge Jared M. Strauss wrote in a Dec. 23 detention order issued in federal court in Fort Lauderdale. “Whether [Courson] intended to keep it as a trophy or a memento, I cannot determine. However, the fact that [Courson] kept that weapon over the course of the last year is not emblematic of someone who has remorse or has come to regret his actions after the passions of the moment have subsided.” “For all of these reasons, I find that [Courson’s] character and history provide significant doubt for whether he would respect and abide by conditions of bond that I could set.” There was also this from the judge: “[Courson] was among those seeking to ‘battering ram’ their way through officers protecting the entrance and actually entered the Capitol,” Strauss wrote. “Even more significantly, he attempted to injure another person–specifically [one] officer…by striking him with the baton and officer…by assisting in dragging him down the stairs.”
During his post-Miranda statement to the FBI, [Courson] “admitted to exchanging blows with officers” and to attacking the officer with the baton, Strauss wrote. He also said, “he felt striking the officers was ‘justified.’”
Courson told agents the scene on the Capitol grounds was like being in a “war zone” and that he felt like he was engaged in a “battle,” according to the records.
“Despite his ‘Thin Blue Line’ face covering (seemingly showing support for law enforcement), he stated that he felt these officers were not ‘thin blue line’ but rather were traitors,” wrote Strauss.
“Clear and convincing evidence indicates [Courson] took part in what can only be described as an armed insurrection against American democracy,” Strauss said in his order rejecting bond for Courson.
“The rioters sought to overturn the results of a democratic election with which they were unhappy–not by politics or by law, but by force. I cannot conceive of anything evincing a greater disrespect for the rule of law.”
The Tamarac Talk also reported this:
“On Dec. 14, around ten FBI agents along with a SWAT team executed a search warrant on Courson’s residence in Tamarac, the records show. They found the baton he had used during the Capitol attack, along with two firearms and the clothes he had worn during the riots, according to the documents.
“Courson, a father and businessman who sells audio equipment, has a criminal history that includes several arrests between 2013 and 2018, including busts for battery, grand theft, and resisting arrest without violence, the records show.”
Courson remains in federal custody in D.C. He is charged with eight federal offenses that include assaulting, resisting or impeding certain officers and inflicting bodily injury, civil disorder, and entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds with a deadly or dangerous weapon, according to court records.

Defeated sure attracts interesting storage followers .... The saga of MAGA rioter Kenneth Kelly just keeps getting stranger. Kelly, 58, of Ocala, FL was sentenced today by a federal judge to 60 months home confinement, but he “currently lives in a recreation vehicle that he uses to commute between Florida and New Mexico, where he is working to provide medical services to under-served communities,” it was reported at the Fox 35 Orlando TV station. That will mean Kelly will be required to wear a GPS locator. But getting home confinement to an RV is just the latest oddity of Kelly’s odyssey. Last April, Kelly garnered minor fame as the MAGA rioter who thought he was breaking into the White House. He was described at the time as a “a QAnon-obsessed Trump supporter recently turned in by his family for storming the Capitol on January 6 (who) didn't even know the difference between the Capitol and White House. *** In the FBI complaint against him, Kelly was described as “wearing a dark-colored Trump beanie and dark-colored puffer jacket” and having had texted the following: Inside White House via breaking in windows. Tree of liberty was watered today.” In today’s episode, there was this new information about Kelly: “According to court documents and testimony, Kelly lost his job with Advent Health as an emergency room doctor after he was arrested, he lost his marriage and custody of his children.” In addition to what was reported as his new pursuit of helping underserved communities, Kelly was described as contrite. “In court on Friday, Kelly expressed regret about the seven minutes he spent inside the Capitol. www.rawstory.com/capitol-rioter-kenneth-kelly/ |

Sentencing moving up the scale... NY sheriff running for governor pleads with judge to go easy on 'good friend' who rioted at the CapitolMatthew Chapman January 17, 2022 On Monday, CBS News reported that a sheriff from Upstate New York is pleading with a judge to show leniency to a "good friend" of his charged with rioting at the U.S. Capitol on January 6. "In his letter to the judge, Lewis County, New York, sheriff Michael Carpinelli wrote that he was putting his 'title and reputation' at stake in asking the court for leniency for his 'good friend' William Tryon," reported Scott MacFarlane. "Tryon, 71, pleaded guilty in October to the misdemeanor charge of entering a restricted building on Capitol grounds on January 6, 2021. Tryon submitted Carpnelli's letter, along with six dozen other character letters from friends and members of the community, as he sought a sentence that spared him from prison." "On Friday, a judge sentenced Tryon to 50 days in jail, nearly twice as long as the sentence recommended by prosecutors," the report continued. "Tryon, a farmer from upstate New York, was also ordered to pay a $1,000 fine." www.rawstory.com/michael-carpinelli/ |

Don't drive under the influence carrying an AR-15 while out on bail after the Capitol insurrection.. Judge revokes bail for MAGA rioter accused of driving impaired with AR-15: report Matthew Chapman January 18, 2022 On Tuesday, CBS News' Scott MacFarlane, the key authority covering the January 6 cases, reported that James Grant, a defendant in connection with the Capitol insurrection, had his bail revoked by a judge and was ordered back into pre-trial detention. The revocation for Grant, who is accused by federal prosecutors of physically lifting a metal barricade and using it to topple Capitol Police, comes after he was discovered with an AR-15 style rifle, 60 rounds of ammo, and fatigues in his car. He was also allegedly under the influence of drugs at the time. www.rawstory.com/capitol-riot-hearing-2656430081/ |

Social media again ... Cowboy hat-wearing MAGA rioter charged with assaulting police with chemical sprayJohn Wright January 26, 2022 A Capitol rioter who allegedly assaulted police with chemical spray while wearing a Trump-themed cowboy hat has been arrested. Markus Maly, 47, of Fincastle, Virginia, wore a “white cowboy style hat with the words ‘TRUMP 2020’ printed on the front and what appears to be ‘TEAM TRUMP’ printed on the back, with an American flag pattern printed on the underside," according to a criminal complaint. He “carried a black canister that was consistent with what is commonly known as ‘bear spray’ or pepper spray," the complaint states. Maly is accused of deploying the pepper spray toward a line of Metropolitan police officers who were working to secure the area of the Lower West Terrace of the Capitol Building. "He additionally assisted a second person who has been charged with spraying law enforcement –identified as Jeffrey Scott Brown, 55, of Santa Ana, California – by handing him a can of spray," the complaint states. *** During the insurrection, Maly told his girlfriend on Facebook, “We took the fuckin capital (SIC)," adding that it was "so fun." The following day, he wrote: “There were lots of pissed off patriots there and we wanted our voices to be heard. I myself one [sic] of them. We were there to support President Trump and the voting process. A voting process that was hijacked and stolen from us." *** Maly also posted photos of himself at the Capitol. Video shows him holding the riot shield and deploying the chemical spray, the complaint states. *** www.rawstory.com/capitol-riot-2656484747/ |

www.rawstory.com/stewart-rhodes-2656725538/Judge orders 'clear danger' Stewart Rhodes to stay in jail ahead of trial Brad Reed February 18, 2022 U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta on Friday ordered Oath Keepers leader Stewart Rhodes to remain in prison ahead of his trial for charges of seditious conspiracy for this role in the January 6th Capitol riots. Law and Crime reports that Mehta said during Friday's hearing that he was not convinced that Rhodes was a flight risk, but he was convinced that the Oath Keepers leader posed a "clear and convincing danger" to the general public if released. According to CBS News reporter Scott MacFarlane, Mehta expressed concern about Rhodes's "alleged gun/equipment purchases and messages" that he sent calling for violence ahead of the January 6th riots. Additionally, writes MacFarlane, Mehta was concerned about a court's ability to monitor Rhodes given his proven savvy at using encrypted communications. Tasha Adams, Rhodes's estranged wife, publicly warned against releasing him before his trial, and she even went so far as to detail how he created what she described as "elaborate escape tunnels" on their property. Rhodes and some of his fellow Oath Keepers so far are the only people who took part in the Capitol riots who have faced seditious conspiracy charges. www.rawstory.com/stewart-rhodes-2656725538/

Rifled through books and papers in Capitol offices .. ‘Nazis, where are you?’ MAGA rioter arrested after ‘very creepy video’ showed him rifling through Capitol officesJohn Wright February 22, 2022 An accused Capitol rioter was arrested this week after allegedly posting "a very creepy video" on his Facebook page, which showed him saying "Nazis, where are you?" as he rifled through congressional offices during the Jan. 6 insurrection. Athanasios Zoyganeles, who reportedly moved from Chicago to Florida since storming the Capitol, is charged with four misdemeanor counts. According to a charging affidavit, a tipster contacted the FBI last January and provide a screenshot from Zoyganeles' Facebook page. The tipster "reported that 'this guy' went inside of the Capitol and posted a 'very creepy video of him in the Capitol saying Nazis, where are you??'" the affidavit states. The tipster said Zoyganeles "was with a group going into offices, and in the video saying let’s clean up as they went through books and files." "Investigators subsequently found more posts on Zoyganeles’ Facebook page appearing to show him at the Capitol, along with Facebook messages discussing his plans to travel to D.C.," WUSA Channel 9 reports. "On the day of the riot, investigators say Zoyganeles responded to a question about whether he was OK by writing, 'No, I rushed the capital [sic] and lost everyone I was with.' He also said he had been teargassed and Maced." Zoyganeles also wrote on Facebook on the day of the riot, "If the people have to come back. They will bring their guns and they won't finish until all theses (sic) corrupt people are removed.” In December 2020, Zoyganeles wrote: "I have a dream. On the date below. All Americans will unite. Come together in Washington D.C. Go to the capital building. Rip the doors down. Remove our crooked government and make the world a better place for everyone." Join Raw Story Investigates. Go AD-Free. On Jan. 7, the day after the riot, Zoyganeles claimed that “antifa… was let into the capital by the crooked police." "Since the riot, Zoyganeles has moved to Florida and has continued to claim 'antifa' was behind the attack and has shared misinformation about Trump’s election fraud claims and COVID-19 vaccines, according to publicly available posts on his Facebook page," WUSA 9 reports. "Posts from Jan. 6 remain up as well, including one where Zoyganeles wrote, 'True story I was there,' and a second saying, 'The second Ammendment [sic] gives us the right to fight against a tyrannical government fact.' As of Tuesday afternoon, the bio on his Facebook page read, 'Biden is not my President. It is a coup by our own government. #TheTruth!!!!!'" www.rawstory.com/capitol-riot-arrests-2656770933/ |

First trial from Jan 6th is Reffitt, the man who threatened to kill his kids if they turned him in .. all talking and no remorse!! MAGA rioter accused of threatening kids says he's 'willing to die' in defiant pre-trial statementJohn Wright February 25, 2022 An alleged Capitol rioter who is set to be the first Jan. 6 defendant to stand trial beginning Monday issued a defiant jailhouse statement this week. “The beginning of the 1/6 Political Prisoner trials,” Guy Reffitt of Texas said in the statement, which was posted on a Telegram channel dedicated to sharing messages from Jan. 6 defendants. “Orwellian thought crimes, Spies, and the Ministry of Truth.” Reffitt, an oil worker and member of the Three Percenters militia group who was armed with a handgun on Jan. 6, is charged with five felonies in connection with the insurrection. He is also accused of threatening his children if they contacted the FBI, saying, "If you turn me in, you're a traitor and you know what happens to traitors … traitors get shot." Reffitt was ultimately turned in by his 19-year-old son, Jackson, who has since become estranged from the family. Jackson and Reffitt's 17-year-old daughter, Peyton, reportedly are set to testify during his trial. In his Telegram message, Reffitt said his "wife and two daughters will be here with members of my family & friends." *** "Welcome to the New World Order," he wrote. "This will be the beginning of what could make or break this nation and every subsequent trial henceforth will be a spectacle. It will also be for the heart and soul of The Republic. One thing is for sure, they are trying very hard to control your life. They don't much like it that you think without their help. Tyranny is real, it's powerful, and it's here. "It's this country we stand with and are willing to die for," Reffitt said of himself and his wife. "I am prepared to stare down the barrel of tyranny to receive the bullet of freedom."www.rawstory.com/guy-reffitt-2656794537/ |

This is the dad who threatened to kill his kids if they reported him going to Jan 6th 'Purge all previous conversations': Prosecutors reveal MAGA rioter's panicked texts at trialBrad Reed March 04, 2022 Prosecutors on Friday revealed an incriminating text message sent by accused MAGA rioter Guy Reffitt, reports Politico's Kyle Cheney. The text message in question came just four days after the Capitol riot when Reffitt learned that law enforcement officials had brought in members of the Texas Three Percenters militia in for questioning. "This is not a drill," Reffitt wrote to other Three Percenters on January 10th, 2021. "Be prepared. The sh*t is now hitting the fan. Start purge of all previous conversations."That last line is key to the prosecutors' case that Reffitt tried to obstruct justice, as it amounts to soliciting for the destruction of evidence.Earlier this week, Reffitt broke down in tears when he watched his 19-year-old son, Jackson Reffitt, testify against him at the start of the trial. Among other things, Jackson Reffitt said his father sent messages to the family promoting a new civil war, while also talking about "rising up" and "destroying" the United States government. Reffitt also revealed to jurors that he reported his own father to the FBI and he felt "dirty for doing so. www.rawstory.com/capitol-rioter-trial-2656844354/ |

Longest sentence yet!! MAGA rioter clad in 'CNN: FAKE NEWS' hat gets 51 months in jail for attacking cops with a pipe on Jan. 6Ray Hartmann March 04, 2022 68-year-old man sporting a hat that read “CNN: FAKE NEWS” -- and who attacked multiple officers at the U.S. Capitol with a pipe -- received one of the longest sentences handed down to date in connection with the January 6 riot. Duke Edward Wilson, of Nampa Idaho, was sentenced Friday to 51 months in prison followed by 36 months of supervised probation and a fine of $2,000 by Judge Royce C. Lamberth. Wilson had pleaded guilty last September to assaulting, resisting or impeding officers and obstructing an official proceeding, both felonies. “Lamberth said the 51-month sentence — the maximum allowed under federal sentencing guidelines — was necessary because the insurrection was 'a horrible day for our country,'" the Idaho Press reported. “It's a message that the court has to send, that our country cannot deal with that.” The Press also reports: “U.S. Capitol Police Sgt. Aquilino Gonell told the judge during the hearing that he is still suffering from the injuries he suffered after Wilson's attack, underwent surgeries to fuse a bone in his foot and to repair his shoulder and may need additional shoulder surgeries.“Prosecutors said Wilson charged a set of doors in the tunnel and prevented officers from closing them, and then tried to rain blows on the officers using a thin PVC pipe that he had apparently found on the ground. Gonell tried to block the pipe from hitting a fellow officer who had no helmet, he said. “Both my hands were bleeding at that time from blocking,” Gonell said. “He insisted on continuing to fight me to prevent us from closing that door, that would enable him and his fellow insurrectionists to advance in the tunnel and the Capitol as members of Congress and the Senate were being evacuated from the very same route.” “I remember vividly what happened that day to me, to him,” Gonell said. “More than one year later I am still not able to put on my police uniform due to those injuries because of what he did to me and my fellow officers.” www.rawstory.com/capitol-rioter-sentence-2656845952/ |

DC Transit worker....

"He was outed to the FBI by a citizen motivated by a 'sense of outrage regarding the attacks on law enforcement during the events of January 6,' according to a newly-unsealed criminal complaint," reported Justin Rohrlich. "The unidentified civilian who outed Iraj Javid, an IT specialist for the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA), submitted a collage of photos gathered by volunteer investigative outfit, the Sedition Hunters. FBI agents then confirmed his identity through a close friend, a church buddy, and Javid’s manager at the transit agency." www.rawstory.com/capitol-riot-arrests-2656843045/ |

New info Prosecutors unveil 'overwhelming' evidence in Jan. 6 conspiracy case against Proud Boys leader Enrique TarrioJordan Green, Staff Reporter March 15, 2022 The court filing provides new details about Tarrio’s role in setting up a series of encrypted group chats under the name Ministry of Self-Defense, or MOSD, that were used to vet Proud Boys for inclusion in the operation at the US Capitol on Jan. 6. According to the government, Tarrio and other leaders “imposed a command-and-control structure on the new chapter,” which included operational and marketing councils, with leaders empowered to hand-pick Proud Boys to become members of the MOSD. In its court filing on Monday, the government alleged that on Jan. 3, three days before the attack, one of Tarrio’s picks for the MOSD posted a message reading, “Time to stack those bodies in front of Capitol Hill.” Skip in 2s Continue watching after the ad WATCH: Footage shows Proud Boys leader being arrested in his underwear for new conspiracy charge Another member is alleged to have asked in the same discussion: “So are the normies and other attendees going to push thru police lines and storm the capital buildings? A few million vs A few hundred coptifa should be enough.” The same member, according to the government, raised a scenario that turned out to be prophetic. “What would they do [if] 1 million patriots stormed and took the capital building,” he wrote. “Shoot into the crowd? I think not.” According to the government, an un-indicted co-conspirator labeled “Person 3” — and subsequently identified as John Charles Stewart, a member of the Operational Council — responded: “They would do nothing because they can do nothing.” Join Raw Story Investigates. Go AD-Free. The recent court filing also provides new detail about a meeting between Tarrio and Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes at a hotel parking garage on the eve of the Capitol attack. The meeting took place after Tarrio had been released and ordered to leave DC, following his Jan. 4 arrest on charges of burning a Black Lives Matter banner stolen from a Black church. (Rhodes is currently charged with seditious conspiracy.) RELATED: Why accelerationist Proud Boys latched on to big conservative rallies in DC last month Tarrio told another individual in the parking-garage meeting that, according to the government, “he had cleared all of the messages on his phone before he was arrested” and that “no one else would be able to get into his phone because there were ‘two steps’ to get into it.” Tarrio’s indictment hints at broader coordination between the Proud Boys and other actors involved in the effort to prevent Congress from certifying Joe Biden as the winner of the 2020 presidential election with an allegation that Tarrio received a nine-page document on Dec. 30 or Dec. 31 that outlined a plan to occupy “crucial buildings” in Washington, DC on Jan. 6. The government argues that even after his arrest, “Tarrio continued to direct the conspiracy.” After meeting with Rhodes, the government alleges that Tarrio traveled to Baltimore and, using associates’ phones, joined new encrypted chats for MOSD leaders and members that were set up after the original chats were shut down following his arrest. According to the government, Tarrio posted at least one message to the New MOSD Leaders Group chat shortly after midnight on Jan. 6. The government alleges that the communications in the encrypted chats clearly show that Ethan Nordean and Joe Biggs, Tarrio’s codefendants were designated “to take charge on the ground.” The two men can be seen in video filmed by Proud Boy Eddie Block leading hundreds of Proud Boys from the Washington Monument to the Capitol on Jan. 6. The government alleges that Nordean and Biggs were continuously “coordinating” with and “deferring to Tarrio.” As evidence, the government cites a message posted by Biggs in the MOSD Leaders Group chat at 9:17 p.m. on Jan. 5: “Just spoke with Enrique.” READ MORE: Indictment of Proud Boys leader hints at coordination with other insurrection actors The court filing also quotes Biggs as saying, “I gave Enrique a plan. The one I told the guys and he said he had one.” It remains unknown who provided the nine-page document outlining plans to occupy government buildings to Tarrio. But the government’s prosecution points to Stewart, a member of the Operational Council, as a person who helped the Proud Boys settle on the Capitol building as a target. According to the indictment, Tarrio stated in the MOSD Leaders Group that he wanted to wait until Jan. 4 to make final plans. Apparently ignoring Tarrio’s wishes, Stewart — identified in the indictment as “Person 3” — posted a voice note in the chat at 7:10 p.m. on Jan. 3 that used military language: “I mean the main operating theater should be out in front of the house of representatives. It should be out in front of the Capitol building. That’s where the vote is taking place and all of the objections. So, we can ignore the rest of these stages and all that sh*t and plan the operations based around the front entrance to the Capitol building. I strongly recommend you use the national mall and not Pennsylvania avenue though. It’s a wide open space, you can see everything coming from all angles.” The following day, Tarrio acknowledged Stewart’s recommendations, according to the government, raising no objections. “I didn’t hear this voice note until now, you want to storm the Capitol,” he said according to the government. Like Tarrio, Stewart was not present in Washington, DC on Jan. 6. Two Proud Boys, one former and another current, told LNP/Lancaster News that Stewart was in the hospital dealing with a medical issue. At the time of Tarrio’s arrest on March 8, the government had a search warrant for Stewart’s home in Carlisle, Pa. to collect evidence. The government argued on Monday that Tarrio should remain in jail pending trial because he is a risk to the safety of the community and a flight risk. The government also said Tarrio is a risk for obstructing justice based on “public comments aimed at chilling witnesses against his co-conspirators.” As evidence, the government cited a story by Reuters reporting that Tarrio sent a voice message to Proud Boys around the country, saying, “The moment that they think one of the guys flipped, it throws everything off and it makes everybody turn on each other, and that’s what we are trying to f***ing avoid.” Along with codefendants Nordean, Biggs, Charles Donohoe, Zach Rehl and Dominic Pezzola, Tarrio is set to be arraigned by Judge Timothy Kelly in federal court in the District of Columbia on March 22. The government argued that the evidence against Tarrio is “overwhelming,” while calling him “a danger to the community.” The government alleges that Tarrio posted in the encrypted chat groups throughout the day on Jan. 6, and after the attack wrote, “They’ll fear us doing it again.” When one member asked what they should do next, Tarrio reportedly responded at 4:14 p.m.: “Do it again.” www.rawstory.com/command-and-control-government-sharpens-conspiracy-case-against-proud-boys-leader-tarrio/ |

Even magnifying my screen, these old eyes can't make it out. TIA I was actually wondering if anyone was able to read it - after realizing that I can’t even read it! Thank you for asking…😂 The name of the boat is DELUSIONAL. (Not mine, of course) It was the only pic I had that was small enough to use as my avatar. Slim pickins! |

nursemaThanks for the read. I wouldn't mind having a boat like that, but I wouldn't want to keep the name. Would love to know the story behind it. And, I'd like to send them all away on a slow boat to...well, a few options come to mind. Alcatraz is one. On a much less appealing boat, too.

The made-up-in-my-head story is that the wife of the owner suggested it after he bought it during a mid-life crisis. |

Cowboys for former Couy Griffin, guilty one charge, not in the other... 'Ominous warning sign': Here's how 'Cowboys for Trump' founder's conviction bodes ill for MAGA rioters Matthew Chapman March 22, 2022 On Tuesday, following the conviction of "Cowboys for Trump" founder Couy Griffin on a January 6 riot related offense, CBS News' Scott MacFarlane — the key reporter covering the January 6 cases — laid out how this is a warning shot to other defendants. For the second time, a trial has concluded in a January 6 case. For the second time, the U.S. Justice Department has secured a conviction, in this case against Couy Griffin, a county commissioner from Otero County, New Mexico," said MacFarlane. "Convicted on the first count, entering a restricted building, found not guilty on the second count of disorderly conduct." www.rawstory.com/capitol-riot-sentences-2657019573/ |

One of our New Jersey fools!! A New Jersey who stole two microphones belonging to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and smoked a cigarette in the Capitol Rotunda was sentenced to 10 days in prison and a year of probation for his role in the January 6 riot. Robert Petrosh, 52, of Mays Landing, had been described by prosecutors in court papers “as “among the more culpable misdemeanor defendants arising out of the January 6 riot,” noting that he admitted to telling a Capitol Police officer: “Give us Nancy, and we will leave,” the Philadelphia Inquirer reported. But prosecutors “dropped four related charges against Petrosh in January after he pleaded guilty to one misdemeanor count of theft of government property,” the Inquirer reported. www.rawstory.com/robert-petrosh-jan-6-prison/ |

No, he should not attend his birthday party in FL. On Friday, CBS News' Scott MacFarlane, the key authority on the January 6 Capitol riot prosecutions, reported that the Justice Department is asking a federal court to deny a request by a "high-level" defendant, Joseph Daniel Hutchison of Lakeland, Florida, to travel home to have a birthday party. www.rawstory.com/capitol-rioter-2657041760/ |
