An anti-deportation protester who dared Attorney General Pam Bondi to arrest him for crashing a Sunday church in Minnesota is now in custody, Bondi said Thursday.
William Kelly was seen on video with a crowd invading and loudly disrupting a service at Cities Church in St. Paul over allegations that the pastor worked for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Bondi described the protest as an attack on congregants’ religious liberty and announced multiple related arrests, including Kelly’s, in Thursday X posts.

I wonder whether its a mistake to arrest some of these people. Are they just going to get charged and then released with no meaningful jail time? If so, they are getting what they want - they were “persecuted” by “Trump’s fascist Justice Department.” Its a badge of honor. But if they end up in jail for a year or two, its worth charging them.

John Bolton was a pretty high profile arrest.

Your point is well-taken. Technically Bolton was neither arrested nor perp-walked. He surrendered himself into temporary custody and then nothing (yet) has come of the indictment that I am aware of. So though it was not a terribly memorable event, it was nonetheless at least an attempt at accomplishing something "high profile", like Comey and James.

“””Technically Bolton was neither arrested nor perp-walked.””
He was put into custody by US Marshals. That means he was under arrest. He was charged with 18 felonies. He went before a judge and said he was not guilty. The judge then released him from custody until the trial. The DOJ told the judge they would need until May to go over all the evidence.
Did you expect an arrest, trial and sentencing all within a week or so?
To: shelterguy
Was he taken into custody by the Marshals? I do not recall that. I recall him surrendering himself and shortly released thereafter with no news since.

What to know about federal charges against former national security adviser John Bolton
... Former national security adviser John Bolton turned himself in to federal authorities Friday morning in Maryland and pleaded not guilty after being indicted on charges of keeping top secret documents at his home and sharing classified information with family members. Bolton was ordered released from custody after making his court appearance.
I'd love to see the arrest warrant if you can find it. I'd frame it!

Why did he turn himself in if there was no arrest warrant?
Can you send me a picture or video of the arrest and perp walk of the guy accused of killing Charlie Kirk? I don’t recall him being arrested.
To: shelterguy
Actually, the arrest warrant for Tyler James Robinson has not been shown publicly that I am aware. It's been suggested that it can be acquired using a GRAMA (Government Records Access and Management Act) request in Utah. But, oddly, I'm not aware of anyone successfully acquiring the actual record yet. At least it has not been put on display on any channels I follow.
