January 6th/21 - fallout

Post by Tyrian-Quill »

A former UCLA student was sentenced to over three years in prison for Capitol riot

On Jan. 6, 2021, Christian Secor, a student at UCLA, broke into the U.S. Capitol along with hundreds of rioters, entered the Senate chamber while carrying the flag of an extremist anti-immigrant and antisemitic movement, and sat in the chair recently vacated by former Vice President Mike Pence.

Not long after, Secor posted on Twitter that Trump supporters should be "proud" of the Capitol riot, in which more than 140 police officers were injured. "One day accomplished more for conservativism than the last 30 years," he wrote.

On Wednesday, the 24-year-old Secor was sentenced to three-and-a-half years in prison. Earlier this year, he pleaded guilty to obstruction of an official proceeding, a felony.

Judge Trevor McFadden, who was nominated to the federal court by former President Donald Trump, said Secor's conduct was, "about as blatant and obstructive as any [he's] seen from that day that didn't include actual violence."

      Man who pulled officer Fanone into mob during US Capitol attack sentenced to over 7 years

      The man who pulled former Washington, DC, Metropolitan Police officer Michael Fanone into the crowd of violent rioters on January 6, 2021, yelling “I got one!” was sentenced Thursday to 90 months behind bars.

      In the lower west terrace tunnel, a small entryway into the Capitol, the mob fought police with chemical spray, poles, bats, and officers’ own batons and shields against the line of police – including Fanone – protecting the building and those inside.

      It was during this battle that a man named Albuquerque Head pulled Fanone away from his fellow officers, wrapping his arm around Fanone’s neck, tearing him into the crowd, according to court documents, which consumed Fanone and beat him unconscious.
        One by one... they are going through the justice system.

          More fallout from the Jan 6 insurrection, as a deranged MAGA Republican tried to finish what they were unsuccessful in doing back on Jan 6 by murdering Nancy Pelosi. Thankfully, Ms. Pelosi wasn't at home, but that didn't stop the deranged MAGA Republican from assaulting Paul Pelosi with a hammer.

          This is what happens when a sore loser snowflake like Trump riles up his gullible base into believing ridiculous conspiracy theories, and shame on anyone who would defend this horrible and disgusting attack on the Pelosi family.

          What? "Mentally deficient parasites"? Are you talking about the committee investigating these mostly peaceful protests? Because then I agree with you.

          Like your comment, DePape reeks of leftist paranoia and extremism. He probably has about as much interest in whether America ever becomes great again as you do.
          [/Neighbors described DePape as a homeless addict with a politics that was, until recently, left-wing, but of secondary importance to his psychotic and paranoid behavior. “What I know about the family is that they’re very radical activists,” said one of DePape’s neighbors, a woman who only gave her first name, Trish. “They seem very left. They are all about the Black Lives Matter movement. Gay pride. But they’re very detached from reality. They have called the cops on several of the neighbors, including us, claiming that we are plotting against them. It’s really weird to see that they are willing to be so aggressive toward somebody else who is also a lefty.”

          Let’s hope that Epps’ quest to find a lawyer to take his complaints to court for an airing is successful. Being questioned under oath in public would definitely help clear up any misunderstanding about his role in orchestrating the riot. :smt045

          Given that Trump's violent insurrectionist mob called for Pence's hanging it will be interesting to see what he says.
