cccjwh Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 Poor guy believed the big lie and has to pay a high price. He should have stuck to posting memes on forums. Ex-NYPD officer gets 10 years in prison for Jan. 6 attack | AP News A retired New York Police Department officer was sentenced on Thursday to 10 years in prison for attacking the U.S. Capitol and using a metal flagpole to assault one of the police officers trying to hold off a mob of Donald Trump supporters. Thomas Webster’s prison sentence is the longest so far among roughly 250 people who have been punished for their conduct during the riot on Jan. 6, 2021. The previous longest was shared by two other rioters, who were sentenced separately to seven years and three months in prison. Webster, a 20-year NYPD veteran, was the first Capitol riot defendant to be tried on an assault charge and the first to present a self-defense argument. A jury rejected Webster’s claim that he was defending himself when he tackled Metropolitan Police Department officer Noah Rathbun and grabbed his gas mask outside the Capitol on Jan. 6.

mjp28 Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 Summary of that story you can not assault a police officer with a metal tool especially when you are bigger than life right there on a video camera. D'UH ! AND Donald wants to give him and others just like him full pardons . Ah Donald they're felons not angels and 100% on camera 📷 guilty. Go figure.
