“These people should be investigated, charged and prosecuted.”
Amendment VI says they would have to be prosecuted where their crimes were committed - DC and NYC. They would not get convicted.
The J6ers that were excessively punished need to be compensated - say $200/day of persecution + $600/day of excessive incarceration + 200% of legal fees + 200% of lost income + 200% of other losses by act of Congress.
You've never heard of a motion for change of venue? /rhetorical question
“Amendment VI says they would have to be prosecuted where their crimes were committed - DC and NYC. They would not get convicted.”
They are government employees, who committed Sedition, and potentially helped adversarial governments against the people of the United States. They were members of the Executive Branch, and not ‘civilian’. Therefore, I think a good case could be made that they be tried by the military, overseen by the SCOTUS, which means GITMO. They should not be given civilian courts, especially those who had TS access.
Wow, that’s one of the first things you’ve written that we’re in agreement on.
It just needs one more step.
Tax Free
I'd be fine with that, but IF AND ONLY IF the politicians, judges, and prosecutors responsible were completely bankrupted to pay for it. Otherwise, they really suffer no consequences for their actions, and we the taxpayers would be paying the penalty for their crimes/incompetence/vindictiveness.
And how would that punish the persecutors? Our tax dollars would be spent to pay the J6ers. The ones who persecuted them would suffer no loss. That’s not justice.
Most of the J6 prisoners were out-of-towners. File in the jurisdictions from which they were taken into custody.
