Prosecutors to seek 2-month jail sentence for Jan 6 defendant Dawn Bancroft, who was accused of entering Capitol twice (briefly) amid mob ... and recording video after saying: " We were looking for Nancy to shoot her in the frickin’ brain. But we didn’t find her."

ADD: Defendant accused of hitting police with a pole during Capitol riot asks for leniency saying he was "caught up in the riotous atmosphere of the crowd and erroneously perceived the police as standing in the way of the crowd’s desire to protest the election results"

Sentencing has not been light for this behavior...

It takes some brass ones to file some absolute horse [expletive deleted] like that with the court asking for leniency.

So... a high-level Capitol riot defendant (accused of bringing tactical vest & baton to Capitol) files court motion arguing the Trump officials who are defying the Jan 6 Committee are also "creating an aura of suspicion" in the mind of prospective jurors in Capitol siege cases

Yeah, I know. The ones getting the light sentences have been mouthy jerks wandering around, but not necessarily beating up the police. Just musing on the "tourist" comment and how it was just a peaceful demonstration. With bear spray. Like tourists carry bear spray around DC.

Federal prosecutors said Monday they have declined to bring charges against nine people associated with CBS’ “Late Show with Stephen Colbert” who were arrested in a building in the U.S. Capitol complex last month.

A spokesperson for the U.S. attorney’s office said it was not probable a conviction could be obtained and sustained given that the nine arrested had been invited and that their escorts had never asked them to leave the building.

“The Office would be required to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that these invited guests were guilty of the crime of unlawful entry because their escort chose to leave them unattended,” said Bill Miller, a spokesman for the U.S. attorney’s office. “We do not believe it is probable that the Office would be able to obtain and sustain convictions on these charges.”

Pepper spray is meant to stop and disable an attacker up close. Bear spray is meant to make a bear uncomfortable, so they will stop and clean themselves while still at a greater distance, and you can get away (works better than a gun because you don't have to be accurate).

Which is reason number 428 why their happy asses need to be hung from a yardarm crucified along the side of a road leading into DC, left to rot off the stick, and the bones to bleach in the sun until dust, wearing a sign saying "so it is for traitors".
