oct 17 2021 In April 2020, a Texas man named Christopher Charles Perez posted on Facebook that he had paid someone with COVID-19 to go to a local grocery store, and lick items.

That was a really dumb thing to post, especially so early in the pandemic when it was still unclear how serious COVID-19 was.

The post was immature and idiotic, but was it criminal?

Some anonymous netizen thought so, and sent a screen-shot of the post to the Southwest Texas Fusion Center, which facilitates information sharing among multiple local, state, and federal police agencies.

From there, the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force, along with Weapons of Mass Destruction personnel, conducted an investigation.

Big shocker— the post was false. Perez had not, in fact, paid anyone with COVID to lick items at the local grocery store.

But he was charged with spreading a hoax relating to biological weapons, convicted, and now has been sentenced to 15 months in prison.

Are you okay with someone paying someone with AIDS to lick stuff at a grocery store?

Wonder how they convicted this guy. He must have admitted he did it. If if was me i'd have said someone must have hacked my account.

For once I agree with you.

According to court records, a federal jury found Christopher Charles Perez, aka Christopher Robbins, 40, guilty of two counts of 18 U.S.C. § 1038, which criminalizes false information and hoaxes related to biological weapons.

Correct. The statue still stand.

I wonder who was in charge of the DoJ when he was charged with the crime on April 8th, 2020.

This looks like the arrest and indictment was done by the republican police state. Donald J Trump and Bill Barr are the responsible parties for the investigation and taking him to court.

I wonder why the FBI under Trump arrested him then and why the DoJ under Trump indicted him for the crime he was convicted of.

I'm not sure if that behavior warrants incarceration or not.

Still, we know that the guy is an idiot and that he uses social media, so therefore, we needn't give a shit about him.

For years I was mocked as I pointed out that America is increasingly becoming a police state.

Those days are mostly over, people have wised up at least that much.

Buckle Up.

Notice if you will in the new definition of word bioweapon how words now mean what power, your owners, want them to mean.

HAHAHAHA. He didn't fill the public with fear, you moron. Just a few people read the post and they didn't care.

Texas did not have any illegal alien votes. The AG beefed up his staff to fight voter fraud and they found 16 cases.

I don't know about Texas turning blue since Trump got about the same percentage of votes in 2020 as he got in 2016 (52.4% v. 52.2%). No Democrat has won a state-wide office in Texas for over 20 years.
