If the events of January 6 had to be described solely based on the number of criminal charges, the media would be forced to call it a "Parade" rather than an "Insurrection."
"I don't think it's any secret to say that federal judges rarely deal with Class B petty offense misdemeanors; this is not our normal diet of criminal conduct, offense conduct," Howell said during the October 2021 hearing for Jack Jesse Griffth, who spent roughly ten minutes inside the building on January 6.
An appellate court decision handed down last week could result in nearly 60 split sentences being overturned while further exposing the vengeful abuse of the law by both the DOJ and D.C. judges in January 6 matters.
In a 2-1 opinion, the U.S. Circuit Court for the District of Columbia vacated the split sentence of James Little, who pleaded guilty to parading; in March 2022, Judge Royce Lamberth sentenced Little to 60 days in jail followed by three years' probation.
After a bit of sentence diagramming to explain to the DOJ and D.C. court how they misread sentencing guidance, Walker condemned their collective overreach.
It's not just that DOJ and D.C. federal courts are bastardizing statutes such as parading and obstruction of an official proceeding against January 6 defendants, both continue to seek and impose excessive sentences with no comparison in any other matter.
The appellate court opinion is a much needed, if long overdue, strike against their continued abuse of power.
