Thomas Webster, a former U.S. Marine and retired New York police officer was sentenced to 10 years in prison for "using a metal flagpole to assault one of the police officers" during the Capitol Riot, suggested that “deep state actors” used the COVID-19 as an opportunity to create a fraudulent election, and said “the timing of that was just unbelievable. And I believe it was intentional, designed to create that atmosphere to make everybody so afraid.”
James McGrew, who was "sentenced to 78 months in prison for assaulting law enforcement officers" during the Capitol Riot, said that all the “nationwide media, the legacy media companies, they portrayed us as terrorists, extremists, conspiracy theorists,” and that “we’ve had every background you can think of as part of this movement.”
Matthew Huttle, who was “sentenced to 30 months in prison” for participating in the Capitol Riot, was “shot and killed during a traffic stop by a sheriff's deputy.” The initially reporting cited law enforcement statements that “alleged that Huttle resisted arrest and was found to have a firearm.”
Body camera footage shows Huttle telling the officer that “I can’t go to jail for this, sir,” and then Huttle runs to his vehicle and says “I’m shooting myself.” However, the footage released by local law enforcement censors the alleged altercation in the vehicle, and the moments when the officer fired their weapon.
The officer was “legally justified in using deadly force to defend himself,” and that “despite lawful commands, Huttle attempted to reach for a firearm, posing an imminent threat to the Deputy’s safety.” according to a statement published by Special Prosecutor Chris Vawter.
U.S. District Judge Dabney Friedrich sharply criticized the Justice Department’s “evolving position that a presidential pardon for a Kentucky man who stormed the Capitol also covers his conviction for illegally possessing guns at his home,” and said the “meaning of the pardon can’t be shifting from day to day.”
In another case, federal prosecutors claimed in a new court filing that Trump’s pardon covers federal convictions of Jeremy Brown for “unregistered weapons and possession of a classified military document at his Tampa home.”
Abigail Shry admitted that she “placed a call to the chambers of a federal judge and made derogatory statements and threats to anyone that went after then former President Donald Trump,” and also “made a direct threat to a then sitting congresswoman, all democrats in Washington D.C. and all people in the LGBTQ community,” according to federal prosecutors.
A federal judge in Texas has reportedly scheduled sentencing for “May 5 at the federal courthouse in Houston.”
Rasha Abual-Ragheb attended CPAC, and said that the legal consequences for her actions “destroyed my life and my kids’ lives.” Abual-Ragheb added, “So fuck you Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, shifty Schiff, DOJ, and FBI. We’re gonna get justice by law!”
Pity they were taken alive.
So Rasha’s take on the consequences of her own actions are it’s the Democrats fault. Uh huh. Glad she learned her lesson. 🤪
