IGotWorms 4,057 Posted November 19, 2024 Anyone wanna defend this “patriot”? WASHINGTON — An ex-soldier who was previously court-martialed for shooting a handcuffed Iraqi civilian was sentenced to over four years in federal prison Monday for assaulting officers during the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. Edward Richmond Jr. assaulted officers with a baton inside the lower west tunnel leading into the Capitol, where some of the worst violence on Jan. 6, 2021, took place, yelling, "We’ll break you motherf---er!" according to video evidence cited by prosecutors. Richmond was sentenced to 51 months in federal prison after he pleaded guilty this year to a felony count of assaulting, resisting or impeding an officer with a deadly weapon. The FBI arrested Richmond in January after online sleuths identified him as the man — whom they nicknamed “Buff Lightyear” — featured as No. 182 on the FBI's Capitol Violence website. Back in 2004, Richmond was convicted of manslaughter for "shooting a hand-cuffed Iraqi cow herder in the head" and was sentenced to three years of military confinement, after which he was dishonorably discharged from the military, prosecutors said in his Jan. 6 case. Several news accounts at the time confirmed those details. Because of that and other factors, Richmond had been one of a limited number of Jan. 6 defendants who were ordered detained before trial. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jonmx 2,424 Posted November 19, 2024 A dozen justifiable sentences does not justify 1200 unjustifiable ones. Time served. Move on from this black day in our corrupt justice system. Let's start imprisoning those who setup J6 and lied about it. Let's find out which FBI agents were involved in planting the fake pipe bombs that day. Let's find out who had all the government phone messages deleted and phones destroyed. Let's find out just which hundred people in the crowd were government operatives. Let's find out why security was so lax that day, why doors were opened and why protestors were led to the floor of the house and to the speakers office. 1 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Every single J6 will be pardoned, without exception. It was 100 percent entrapment and malicious prosecutions. Capitol Police escalated crowd violence by indiscriminately shooting pellets into the crowd and tear gas. FBI operatives in the crowd instigated and encouraged violence. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IGotWorms 4,057 Posted November 20, 2024 Down goes another patriot WASHINGTON — A Donald Trump supporter who was among the first rioters to breach the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, has been convicted of plotting to kill FBI special agents who investigated him over his crimes at the Capitol. Edward Kelley, who was convicted last week of assaulting law enforcement officers and other crimes during the Capitol attack, was found guilty on Wednesday on three additional charges: conspiracy to murder employees of the United States; solicitation to commit a crime of violence; and influencing or retaliating against federal officials by threat. The murder plot trial, which started Monday, took place in Knoxville, Tennessee. NBC News affiliate WBIR in Knoxville reported that the jury convicted Kelley on all three counts after just an hour of deliberation. Kelley will be sentenced in the murder plot case on May 7, one month after he is set to be sentenced on his Capitol case, on April 7. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
