    Default US Capitol rioter who tried to flee to Switzerland is jailed pre-trial

    A geophysicist who allegedly beat police officers who were trying to help injured rioters during the US Capitol siege will be jailed before trial, a federal judge ruled Wednesday, citing the man's ham-handed attempt to flee to Switzerland as proof that he poses a literal flight risk.

    Judge Emmet Sullivan said Jeffrey Sabol was too dangerous to release due to the flight risk and because he might continue his fight against "perceived tyranny" once he is out of jail.
    "He stripped a vulnerable police officer of his police baton," Sullivan wrote in a 64-page ruling. "He then used that stolen police baton to force another officer away from his post and into a mob of rioters who proceeded to viciously attack him, leaving him bleeding from the head."


    His lawyers also said Sabol was "lied to" about the 2020 election by former President Donald Trump as well as Trump's personal attorney Rudy Giuliani and longtime political adviser Roger Stone.

    Lying and doing the wrong thing as sadly infectious.

    People need to learn to think for themselves.

    This guy supported Trump, and that caused him to fall in with a very bad crowd.

    Now he's in deep do-do and fixing to learn some lessons the hard way.

    He totally screwed his life up by supporting Trump.

    Sad.
