received a 52-month jail term
Just over 4 years for attempted murder on a police officer?
I’m sure the United States gave longer sentences for simple cannabis possession not too long ago 🤔
Not only is attempted murder of a cop. It’s on fucking video. There is literal undisputed (can’t wait for the deep fake, or AI generated fake vid defenses incoming) proof he did it.
“A confidential source told the FBI that Stager had claimed he did not know the man was a police officer and thought he was striking a member of the far-left Antifa movement.”
“second video shows Stager saying: “Everybody in there is a treasonous traitor. Death is the only remedy for what’s in that building,” in apparent reference to members of Congress and law enforcement.”
A. I guess it’s just okay to beat someone you disagree with, right?
B. Also, why would anti-fascist, want to instate a wannabe fascist?
Stager and others “forced [the officer] into a prone position on the stairs and proceeded to forcibly and repeatedly strike [him] in the head and body with various objects,”.
A second video shows Stager saying: “Everybody in there is a treasonous traitor. Death is the only remedy for what’s in that building,” in apparent reference to members of Congress and law enforcement.
I still don’t understand how this does not meet the definition of 18 USC § 2331(5)
Of the 1,070 rioters charged in the attack, nearly 600 people have received prison sentences. Some 350 people have been charged with attacking, resisting or impeding police officers.
Now do trump.
soon
You can beat a cop and only get 5 years?
If these assholes were people of color they’d have all been killed, no trial, and sure as hell no light sentencing
If you’re white and conservative.
Also, “rioter” is not an accurate description either…
