Antifa thug gets jail time for Inauguration Day riot
Bogus Times ^ | 7/7/17 | Kim Parkhurst

Posted on 07/07/2017 9:01:27 PM PDT by BogusTimes

Dana Powell of Tampa was sentenced to four months in jail after rioting at the Inauguration Day protest in Washington D.C. that injured six officers and caused tens of thousands of dollars in property damage.

Powell, 31, pleaded guilty to two felony charges – assault on a police officer and inciting a riot – and asked Judge Lynne Leibovitz for “leniency.” He also asked for “forgiveness for anyone who was scared, hurt or felt threatened.”

According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office, a factual proffer signed by Powell, on January 20, 2017, stated he joined together with more than 200 other people in and around Logan Circle in Washington, D.C. and formed a “black bloc.” Individual defendants wore black or dark colored clothing, gloves, scarves, sunglasses, ski masks, gas masks, goggles, helmets, hoodies, and other face-concealing and face-protecting items to conceal their identities in an effort to prevent law enforcement from being able to identify the individual perpetrators of violence or property damage.

Four months but at least it's something. He was the first.

He’ll be out in time to disrupt the 2018 elections.

Another unemployable thug with a record. Nice job of screwing up your life at 31.

No conspiracy charge? Should have been four years.

Bogus Times is not a good name.

It gives the impression it is a satire site like the Onion or others.

Real news is very strange these days and people will think you’re posting satire, not actual things that happened.

“This clown has wrecked his life”

He’s 31 years old and spends his time rioting. Not much of a life to wreck
He’s not a clown, he’s a loser

I haven't read anything about the bike lock attacker since the news of his arrest. I hope he gets the maximum sentence to send the violent left a message.

Should be at least four years for such insurrection.

Four lousy months for this?: Powell was caught on video carrying a black flag, while dressed in all black, with his face partially covered. Throughout the condensed video showing ten minutes of the 30-minute riot, he is seen throwing rocks and bricks at D.C. police officers and storefronts, and even shattering store windows along the 16-block walk.

Thankfully he was convicted of a felony, but that sentence is only appropriate if he identifies his fellow fascists and testifies against them.

He should have gotten 4 years for assault with intent to MAIN, which is a far more serious charge than AWDW (Deadly weapon), thought the latter could have been brought against him too.

We must pass laws outlawing known violence groups (KKK, Antifa, Black Bloc, Red Bloc, Revolutionary Communist Party (Rev.com), from wearing masks, socks (which can be loaded with locks, rocks, soap bars, etc), and gloves (which are also loaded with metal).

Make it a felony to do any of the above.

Time to stop the Marxist psychopaths and their affiliated from perpetrating the violence that they started in Seattle/WTO protests in 2000 (which was planned by at least two known Marxists, one of whom was Prof. Walden Bello (Philippine’s commie and supporter of the Maoist NPA terrorists).

Florida’s felon voting laws are fairly strict as well.

The lock attacker was convicted of assault and got about 4 years, and was fired.

He should have been charged with attempted murder, assault with attempt to main, assault with a deadly weapon (this might have been the charge), and felonious rioting.

The red bastard got off too easy because it was California (if I remember the case site properly. If it was Oregon/Portland, the same cowardice in sentencing these communist thugs).

Already? I just heard of his arrest a few weeks ago!

Did he enter into a plea bargain? Seems like the trial couldn't possibly have been wrapped up already, otherwise...

I don't think he's been tried yet. The most recent news I can find is regarding his arraignment on May 26: Berkeley bike-lock attacker is arraigned - and story goes viral

An unreliable internet source says Eric Clanton is out on bond, and his preliminary hearing has been set for August 10.
