Capitol Riot arrests (2 Viewers)

[Bigdaddysaints]

Figured we should start a separate thread on the arrests and those involved in the storming of the Capitol. I know it has been talked about in the other thread a lot, but for the ones who just want to follow the ones arrested and/or charged, this will be an easier way to see updates on the investigations.

Link below is everyone who has been arrested. But we know there will be more.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Infowars host Owen Shroyerwas sentenced on Tuesday to two months behind bars for joining the mob’s riot at the U.S. Capitol, which prosecutors said he “helped create” by spewing violent rhetoric and spreading baseless claims of election fraud to hundreds of thousands of viewers.…..

WASHINGTON (AP) — Hundreds of rioters have been charged, convicted and sentenced for joining the mob attack on the U.S. Capitol. Unlike their cases, Samuel Lazar’s appears to have been resolved in secret — kept under seal with no explanation, even after his release from prison.

Lazar, 37, of Ephrata, Pennsylvania, was arrested in July 2021 on charges that he came to the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, dressed in tactical gear and protective goggles, and used chemical spray on officers who were desperately trying to beat back the angry Donald Trump supporters.

There is no public record of a conviction or a sentence in Lazar’s court docket.

But the Bureau of Prisons told The Associated Press that the man was released from federal custody this week after completing a sentence for assaulting or resisting a federal officer. Lazar was sentenced in Washington’s federal court on March 17 to 30 months in prison, according to the Bureau of Prisons, but there’s no public record of such a hearing. He had been jailed since July 2021.

Questions about Lazar’s case have been swirling for months, but the details of his conviction and sentence have not been previously reported.

The Justice Department has refused to say why the case remains under wraps, and attorneys for Lazar did not respond to multiple requests for comment from The Associated Press. The judge overseeing Lazar’s case in May rejected a request from media outlets — including the AP — to release any sealed records that may exist.

The case is raising concerns about transparency in the massive Jan. 6 investigation — the largest in Justice Department history. Court hearings and records — including sentencing hearings and plea agreements — are supposed to be open and available to the public and the press unless there’s a compelling need for secrecy.…….

I'm not a fan of all this secrecy for the case of an individual involved in insurrection. There may be a legitimate need for it, but I can't imagine why.

He knows something about someone very high up that they need him to testify about

That makes some sense, but idk, seems like that would have happened by now.

Not if they are saving it for the trial

That's what I meant. Seems to me like the trial would have concluded by now, but considering there are probably some trials still pending, who knows.

He could be Witness D or something without actually naming him in public. The defense laywers would know who he is but the public would not.

"Lazar was transferred in July from FCI Fort Dix — a federal lockup in New Jersey — to “community confinement” overseen by the Bureau of Prisons, which means he was either in home confinement or a halfway house, according to a prisons system spokesperson." Protected custody?

He probably know and have evidence against someone very high up in the Trump administration - possible even Trump himself

News flash-Jan6 defendants ask SCOTUS to overturn their convictions because they were not trying to obstruct proceedings at the Capitol by storming it. This could effect Trump’s prosecution. I guess we’ll find out just how Broken Bad the high court has become.

I guess I shouldn't be shocked at anything these days, but I don't see SCOTUS taking those cases. I suspect they'll just let stand whatever rulings the lower courts have made.

It's pretty clear that the definition of obstructing an official proceeding was met when they were running around on the floor of the House and members of Congress were all huddled up in an undisclosed room in the Capitol. I'd say the cases against the insurrectionists are pretty ironclad.

I hate to prognosticate on something like this, but I just can't see SCOTUS intervening in that respect. Maybe some other aspect tho. Idk.

It was Antifa roids, it wasn't his fault...

 

[Bigdaddysaints]

I went back and read some posts from the thread, and I cannot stop laughing at the fact that Roofgardener was referring to the temp fences around the capitol as "Wire Walls"..
I'm gonna laugh about that for days.

Another great example of how conspiracy theories can ruin lives.
