Never in custody? Why did he need a pardon?Anonymous wrote:Anonymous wrote:I guess when you arrest someone for trespassing and lock them in a dungeon without trial for years, it’s going to make a few of them snap.
He wasn’t arrested for trespassing, he used a log to break a window at the Capitol. And he was never even in custody.

A “log”?
Where’d he get that? Because I’m usually on the House side of the Hill at least once a week or more, at I’ve never seen a random log just laying somewhere.
A log, you say?
Fascinating.

Pardoned Jan. 6 Rioter Sentenced to Life in Assassination Plot
Edward Kelley had been convicted of plotting to kill the law enforcement officers who had investigated his case.
A Tennessee man pardoned by President Trump for taking part in the attack on the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, has been sentenced to life in prison for hatching a separate plot to assassinate the law enforcement officers who investigated his role in the riot.
The life term imposed on the man, Edward Kelley, came during a hearing on Wednesday in Federal District Court in Knoxville, Tenn. Mr. Kelley was convicted at a trial there in November of charges that included conspiracy to murder federal employees and threatening federal agents.
Pardon him? He will probably present him with some made up Trump award, like the Golden Big Mac Comrade of the Year, and then give him an SES position.

I love how MAGA became concerned about conditions in the DC jail when white people were in there.

You mean kind of what we’re doing with undocumented migrants?

I’m sure Trump would be happy to pardon him if he promises to apply to work for ICE.
