Attorneys Claim Government Manufacturing Evidence to Charge, Incarcerate Jan. 6 Prisoners

As Jan. 6 prisoners continue to languish in jail without trials, without bond and in subhuman conditions, two attorneys are claiming the government is manufacturing evidence to arrest and incarcerate them. This is not the first time Democrats have manufactured evidence to support their allegations in a legal proceeding.

A History of Fabricating Evidence

• In July of 2018, the infamous Steele dossier was revealed to be little more than a collection of unverified opposition research funded by Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee (DNC), to obtain a warrant to spy on former Trump campaign volunteer Carter Page and to derail the Trump campaign.

J-6 Cases: 'Manipulating Evidence'

• Joseph McBride, an attorney for multiple Jan. 6 prisoners and defendants, is certain the government is "manipulating evidence."
• "You are not allowed to punish a pre-trial detainee in the United States of America because you are innocent until proven guilty"

Suspicious Affidavits

• Complaint affidavits are generally written as hastily as possible because the only purpose of a complaint affidavit is to establish probable cause.
• However, the Jan. 6 complaint affidavits can run in excess of 20, 30, 40, and even 50 pages long, which begs the question of "why?"

The Case of Brian Mock

• Brian Christopher Mock has been charged with: "Assaulting, Resisting, or Impeding Certain Officers, Knowingly Entering or Remaining in any Restricted Building or Grounds Without Lawful Authority," and Disorderly and Disruptive Conduct, Obstruction of Law Enforcement During Civil Disorder, Acts of Physical Violence in any of the Capitol Buildings or Grounds."
• However, all of the charges are based on screen grabs from videos that do not confirm the allegations.
• The government and the court have acknowledged that video 1 does not show any actual assault by defendant Mock as alleged in the indictment.
• In another incident, Mock is accused of shoving an officer to the ground, causing and injury to the officer's right elbow

The Case of Christopher Worrell

• According to a 17-page criminal complaint, Worrell is charged with entering and remaining in a Restricted Building or Grounds with a deadly or dangerous weapon, disorderly and disrupting conduct, assault, and engaging in physical violence.
• There is no evidence of Worrell actually spraying pepper gel at police officers, despite being seen on video recording the incident with his cell phone.

Evidence Withheld

• Gohmert referenced the Ted Stevens case from 2008 in which the FBI created evidence and hid evidence in order to get a conviction.
• Shortly before his tragic death in a plane crash in August 2010, Stevens was exonerated after a whistleblower revealed that prosecutors withheld critical evidence of his innocence in violation of his constitutional rights.
