OK. Take away the plea deal and put him in jail for a couple decades. Insurrectionist asshole.

[–] toasteecup@lemmynsfw.com 16 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Isn't the minimum punishment for insurrection the death penalty?

[–] sin_free_for_00_days@lemmy.one 17 points 2 years ago

Nope. Death is a possible sentence for treason (while no less than 10 years in jail at a minimum). Insurrection sentencing is not more than 10 years and a fine.

Let me make this abundantly clear to the shameful man who calls himself Shaman: FUCK. YOU.

Also, is your mommy still packing you sack lunches for your extended field trip to prison?

He's already been released on good behavior

[–] jkmooney@kbin.social 34 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Golly, who could have imagined that some charismatic sociopath spreading conspiracy theories would feign remorse in court to reduce his sentence?

The alleged charm of this kill-billy is lost on me.

This is what happens when justice system hands out slaps on wrists for these traitors.

I read this story just to laugh at this loser some more. Meh. Not worth it. He’s just a stupid, boring asshole. (I’m not complaining about your decision to post the story, OP. I’m just complaining about the idiot the story is about.)

If he wants to go back to prison after a trial where they will LITERALLY present his confession and apology as evidence, I say we let him.

[–] Iwasondigg@lemmy.one 9 points 2 years ago

Throw his ass in jail.

Unstable man is unstable

What man of conviction!

Criminal conviction, that is.

[–] morgan_423@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

That's not how this works.

That's not how any of this works!
