And people like Baddog, call these guys “Patriots”
 

 

Other defendants are similarly arguing they should be absolved of other alleged crimes, such as illegal gun possession and child pornography, discovered during Jan. 6 investigations. At least one defendant has died in a post-pardon altercation with police. 

On Jan. 27, county prosecutors in Houston announced a manhunt for Andrew Taake, a pardoned Jan. 6 defendant who was being sought on a 2016 charge of online solicitation of a minor. He had been serving a 74-month sentence after pleading guilty to violence at the Capitol. Prosecutors said he sprayed police officers with bear spray four separate times and struck one with a metal whip.

The Harris County District Attorney’s Office said it had asked federal prison officials to hold the 36-year-old Taake, but instead he was let out of a Colorado facility on Jan. 20 after Trump’s pardon.

“Rearresting individuals, like Taake, who were released with pending State warrants, will require significant resources,” the D.A.’s office said. Taake was finally tracked down Feb. 6 at a home after a dayslong search. His lawyer didn’t respond to a request for comment.

Look at yourself man. Unhinged and frothing at the mouth 

Can’t even speak to the topic at hand lol, the usual 

You have never seen me back anyone with child porn charges. Some people have some nerve without proof. Frothing at the mouth is what you did when you found and article to your liking.

WSJ takes opinion pieces all the time. I Googled your supposed charges against the perps and found no child porn charges. One would think this would be headlines for cnn or msnbc. Does this include the FBI agents who infiltrated the crowd? There’s your answer fake man. Are you gonna answer or hit and run as usual…..troll boy.

Geez…. You would think the WSJ would have been staffers but apparently not.

A defendant can claim anything however that does not make it true.

There are no pardons for solicitation of children, murder conspiracies and other such nonsensical claims.

It is yet another example of taking fiction and trying to stretch it into fact.

The order pardoning people was complete and unconditional pardon to all other individuals convicted of offenses related to events that occurred at or near the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021

So unless the murder plots and child solicitation occurred “at or near” the US Capitol and only on January 6, 2021, there is no pardon.

Also an overwhelming percentage of such crimes are prosecuted in state courts where a presidential pardon has no legal status. Any crime that happened outside the area of the Capitol, in any state (not in DC) or in sometime before or after January 6 even if in DC, the pardons have no legal status.

The inadvertent discovery of other crimes is meaningless.

It is similar to the Supreme Court case of Horton v  California. The police were running a search warrant to look for evidence in an armed robbery but only the things stolen. The judge didn’t put firearms and other items used in the robbery in the actual warrant. When they ran the warrant, the police did not find the stolen items, but did inadvertently find the weapons, handcuffs, stun, guns, and handcuff key used. The defendant filed an appeal all the way to the Supreme Court. The complaint was that the warrant did not mention the weapons and other evidence. It only mentioned the stolen items. Since the government accidentally found these other items not listed on the warrant, they could not be used.

It sounds like a similar claim from some J6 defendants. Since the police were looking for evidence in reference to the protest and accidentally discovered other crimes, they can’t be used against them. 🤣🤣🤣

But don’t let the facts slow you down….
