So Larry Brock is declaring that the J6 types in jail like himself are 'political prisoners of war'.
Law and Crime article about jailed USAF vet Larry Brock
I mean, look, IANAL and I've only occasionally been accused of being the sharpest tool in the shed, but if Brock is asserting in any way that he's a 'prisoner of war', isn't he effectively admitting that he attempted to wage war on the United States? It seems to me that I remember reading about a crime that fits the definition of an American waging war on the United States. I wonder where that was and what that crime is....

HEADS UP: Sentencing is beginning now in high-level Capitol riot case of Andrew Taake
He was accused of brandishing metal whip against police… and of assaulting police with chemical spray and causing injuries
(More)
Judge Carl Nichols has just read an excerpt from a police officer’s victim impact statement. Officer said he/she was “immediately blinded” by the chem spray… and that it felt “like living death”.. and officer struck head on scaffolding after being sprayed
Taake sits at defense table in orange jail jumpsuit scribbling notes as defense attorney argues over sentencing guidelines. He’ll address court later.
Feds are seeking 78 months prison.
Updates to come
So…. There’s been a curve ball. Defense attorney is noticeably frustrated with judge.
Stand by.
Judge Carl Nichols has just postponed this sentencing.
For a month. Nichols is questioning why prosecutors aren’t seeking a further enhancement to the possible prison term for Taake. For causing “bodily harm” to officers. Could result in sizably longer prison sentence
Defense attorney is visibly dissatisfied. He tried to argue that Taake wants to be sentenced TODAY & says the delay will give the prosecutors an opportunity to “breach” the plea deal with Taake. Taake shook his head & was noticeably frustrated when judge ordered postponement
Judge began hearing by asking Justice Dept prosecutor why she hadn’t requested a “3-point” enchantment in sentencing guidelines range for the bodily harm suffered by police.
Prosecutor indicated some of the police officer info wasn’t available during plea negotiations
Judge Nichols: “It’s clear as day to me” that the sentencing enchantment could apply in this case
Defense argued repeatedly (even after judge denied defense’s motion) to plow ahead with sentencing today. Defense is concerned the plea deal is about to implode.
Prosecutor told judge she’s not keen on reopening plea talks .. and that next step could be a trial
Defense: “Mr Taake has been in jail 33 months. He came here today ready to be sentenced”
But it’s not happening … Taake returns to jail.
Sentencing rescheduled for May 23 at 10am
Attorneys are asked to file arguments on the sentencing enhancement issue in the meantime
Defense attorney takes swig of his half-filled bottle of root beer. And watches Taake get escorted by Court security out of courtroom

Probation office petition: "Given the nature and circumstances of the offense, and Ms. Williams’ non-compliance during pre-trial release, modification is being requested to adequately address risk during the supervision of Ms. Williams"
Riley Williams's defense filing: "Counsel believes that Ms. Williams was told that if she did not sign the waiver, she would have to go to a halfway house in the District of Columbia, and upon release, she would be required to live in that district, rather than the Middle District of Pennsylvania, where she plans to reside with her mother"

Feds argued he was equipped w/ ballistic plate & crowbar.. "proclaimed on Facebook that “we’re bringing the wrath of God, and there’s not a F**ING thing you can do to stop it,” “If Pence doesn’t do the right thing, WE FIGHT"
Feds argued Nichols was "featured in video of the so-called choir of January 6 defendants, although it is unclear if the defendant has received any funds from his participation because organizers stated the Choir’s 'proceeds do not benefit families of people who assaulted a police officer”
Justice Dept alleged Nichols posted on Christmas Eve 2020: "Any Democrat found guilty of treason should be executed.. Any Republican found guilty of treason should be VIOLENTLY executed!... It’ll be fixed January 6th, or the Patriots will fix it ourselves"
Justice Dept argument (more): "Nichols, moving the spray cannister left to right to maximize the number of officers he struck, then dispersed the spray twice onto the crowd of officers... After assaulting the officers with the OC spray, Nichols remained near the front line of rioters for several minutes as other rioters swung and stomped at the officers"

So I didn't recall that Brent Bozell's son was a J6-er. wow what a piece of work.
Whole article is worth reading. https://lawandcrime.com/high-profile/no ... -feds-say/Prosecutors told a federal judge that the son of a prominent conservative activist convicted of bashing open a Senate window, joining rioters who chased a police officer before making his way to Speaker of the House’s office and finally perching himself in a gallery where he turned the view of CSPAN camera away from fellow rioters on Jan. 6 deserves 12 years in prison.
Leo Brent Bozell IV of Pennsylvania is the son of Brent Bozell, the conservative founder of the Media Research Center, CNSNews, and the Parents Television Counsel, as Law&Crime previously reported,
Bozell IV, 44, was convicted at a bench trial last September in Washington, D.C. on 10 counts including five felonies like obstructing an official proceeding and aiding and abetting, destruction of government property and aiding and abetting, civil disorder, and assaulting, resisting, or impeding officers. He was also convicted on several misdemeanors including entering and remaining in a restricted building and grounds.
The stark 12-year proposed sentence is the result of a terrorism enhancement prosecutors seek for Bozell, a government sentencing memorandum from Friday explained.

Sovereign citizen sentenced to 90 days flubs up, gets another 5 months. Background:
https://www.syracuse.com/crime/2024/04/ ... rrest.htmlCentral NY man who participated in U.S. Capitol riot back in federal custody after local arrest
Syracuse, N.Y. — An Oneida County man convicted of breaking into the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 is back in federal custody after probation officers said he broke conditions of his supervised release.
Probation officers said Eric Bochene broke conditions of his release when he was arrested in his hometown of New Hartford in February on charges of third-degree assault, recklessly causing physical injury, endangering the welfare of a child and fourth-degree criminal mischief.
Bochene was charged with hitting his minor daughter in the face, probation officers said in court documents. Her injuries required stitches, they said.
