where is stone

A local lawyer here was fired from his job for posting a selfie of himself in the mob on the Capitol steps.

I expect any idiots who aligned themselves to this mess will be facing both legal and/or civil problems be it divorce or unemployment.
 
where is stone

Anyone recognize him here? There are lots more photos on the FBI website. The standard strategy is to pick up as many as possible then offer them a plea deal to flip on their friends, family and associates.

IIRC, you have legal experience. What is the Federal penalty for conspiracy? Is it true they don't have to leave their armchairs to be guilty of conspiring to stage a coup against the United States government?

Have you seen Smarterthanyou's posts on this? He posted to me several times something was in planning. If I was going pick the first to go, it'd be SYT.

Tom isn't an American, but a phone call to the Royal Police from the FBI asking for a favor might see his tune change...if not stop completely.

That's two. Who else?

Depends on what statute you use for conspiracy... Likely 20 years.

Words alone can be enough to be guilty of conspiracy for almost anything.

Thanks.

Agreed. I suspect it's mostly a question of "How bad do they want you?" :)

No, but you are not required to believe anything I post.

Make sure you leave your username and password with your wife, if you still have one, so she can post your prison address. I promise I'll write.
Maybe we can become pen pals. :)
 
DALLAS (AP) — A retired Air Force officer and a man from Tennessee were charged Sunday for being part of the mob that stormed the U.S. Capitol, federal prosecutors said.

Retired Lieutenant Colonel Larry Rendall Brock Jr. was arrested in Texas and charged in federal court in the District of Columbia with one count of knowingly entering or remaining in any restricted building or grounds without lawful authority and one count of violent entry and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds, prosecutors said.

During the deadly riot Wednesday, Brock was photographed on the Senate floor wearing a helmet and heavy vest and carrying zip-tie handcuff.

According to an affidavit, his ex-wife was one of the people who told the FBI they recognized Brock from photos taken at the Capitol.

ROFLMAO. Worse for him is that, besides going to prison, he will probably lose his military pension. Ooooh the burn!

He's obviously lost his mind and should plead guilty but insane.

Larry Rendell Brock, of Grapevine, was charged with knowingly entering or remaining in a restricted building and violent entry and disorderly conduct.

Brock, 53, lived at an apartment complex along Main Street in Grapevine and surrendered to FBI agents Sunday after agreeing to meet them at the Grapevine Police Department, officials said.

In an arrest affidavit, an FBI agent said that Brock’s ex-wife was among those who contacted the Bureau telling investigators, “I just know that when I saw this was happening, I was afraid he would be there. I think you already know he was there. It is such a good picture and I recognize his patch," the affidavit said.

John Scott-Railton, a researcher who studies cyber threats at the Citizen Lab at the University of Toronto, also identified Brock from the photos and notified the FBI.

“My first question was, 'Who is this man with military-style patches?' He's wearing a bunch of gear. He looks pretty comfortable in it,” Scott-Railton said.

Using Texas-themed logos and military insignia on Brock’s clothing and information gathered online, Scott-Railton determined the man in the helmet appeared to be Brock, a retired U.S. Air Force Lt. Colonel from Texas.

“I think we as a country need to understand how a man like Lt. Col. Brock gets from a distinguished service record to making the choices that put him on the floor of the Senate that day,” Scott-Railton said.

Brock recently worked for the aviation division of the Hillwood development company in Fort Worth, but the company said Brock is no longer employed there.

According to The New Yorker, Brock is an Air Force Academy graduate and served in combat.

He told the publication he assumed he was allowed to enter the Capitol when he arrived and said he wore tactical gear because he did not want to get injured by counter-protesters.

The New Yorker also reported Brock said he picked up zip-tie handcuffs when he found them on the floor and intended to give them to a police officer.

On Twitter Sunday, the top federal prosecutor in Dallas, Acting U.S. Attorney Prerak Shah, said his office was "proud to partner with the District of DC to hold Larry Brock accountable for his actions."

The FBI’s Washington office has received more than 40,000 tips so far, including photos and videos that could help identify others who brought chaos to the Capitol.

Authorities said their top priority is tracking down those who were seen breaching the heart of the building.

Also Sunday, Eric Gavelek Munchel was arrested in Tennessee in connection with the riot. He's also charged with one count of knowingly entering or remaining in any restricted building or grounds without lawful authority and one count of violent entry and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds.

Prosecutors said photos from the riot show a person who appears to be Munchel carrying plastic restraints, an item in a holster on his right hip, and a cell phone mounted on his chest with the camera facing outward, ostensibly to record events that day.

It was not immediately known if Brock or Munchel had attorneys to speak on their behalf.

The rioters on Wednesday took over the House and Senate chambers, smashed windows and waved Trump, American and Confederate flags. Prosecutors have filed dozens of cases so far for a variety of offenses ranging from assaulting police officers to entering restricted areas of the U.S. Capitol, stealing federal property and threatening lawmakers.
 
I said 5+ but I am not so sure, our Trumppers are mostly pussies, they would have followed the crowd in, once it seemed safe, but they would never have led the charge.

There also might not even be five Trumpers on here, but just a couple with dozens of sock accounts.
 
I think that our wingnuts here are mostly internet warriors who 'd faint at the prospect of getting a hangnail.

I don't respect the actual insurgents at all, but at least they have more balls than brains.
Our JPP righties mostly have neither.

This is true...I don't believe a single one had the balls to go to DC. But just because they didn't go doesn't mean they also aren't culpable for spreading the lies that caused the insurrection.
