1. Keeping an eye on Elliott Broidy. Convicted criminal associate Nickie Lum Davis is traveling from LA to DC grand jury. April 13, 2021, DC US Attorney moved to dismiss Broidy’s criminal case as moot after Trump pardon. The language used says to me that the pardon is limited to the conspiracy charge. Here are key documents from Broidy case.
1. In @SDNYNews Giuliani and Toensing warrant case in SDNY, the Govt tees up the a motion to appoint a special master. At some point this process could result in a finding that TFG is a crook so no attorney-client privilege. Link to the USA letter motion.
Roger Stone faces loss of his home in Southern District of Florida @IRS Tax enforcement action. Link to the Complaint.
1. Oath Keeper insurrectionist turned government witness, Jon Schaffer has a chance to get into the Witness Protection program. Link to the plea agreement, statement of offense and Marshals Service fact sheet on Witness Security Program.
The plea agreement at paragraph 16, page 11 of 13, refers to the Witness Protection Program. Here is a link to the Marshals Service publication saying that the Witness Security Program is another term for the Witness Protection Program. https://www.usmarshals.gov/duties/factsheets/overview.pdf
Ghislaine Maxwell’s Superseding Indictment filed in @SDNYNews. I wish they’d file the redline.
DC Circuit bail case that has impact on folks charged for attacking Capitol. I looked at it and I think it makes it worse for the people charged. Rather than releasing some may result in others being confined. Link –
Here’s a link to the Ninth Circuit case on open carry and the 2nd Amendment. It’s 215 pages and a treasure trove of historic gun control going back centuries. @NRA
I think this is the DC United States District Court’s local rule that may change Michael Sherwin’s life. 57.7. I would not be surprised if he sees an order to show cause. Arguably he violated Rule 6(e) and could be looking at 18 months.
DC US Attorney moves to jail alleged Proud Boys January 6 conspiracy leaders on charges that qualify as “a federal crime of terrorism.” Link to the motion. @USAO_DC @maddowblog
Pages 3 and 4 of 11:
The United States moves for detention pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3142(e)(3)(C), which
provides a rebuttable presumption in favor of detention for an enumerated list of crimes, including
Destruction of Property in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1361. The United States also seeks detention
pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3142(f)(1)(A), because Destruction of Property, in violation of 18 U.S.C.
§ 1361, is a crime of violence. Moreover, when Destruction of Property is “calculated to influence
or affect the conduct of government by intimidation or coercion,” it also qualifies as a federal
crime of terrorism. See 18 U.S.C. § 2332b(g)(5)(B).
