Nah, because they could charge him with some other crime besides the misdemeanor they are charging him with, and double jeopardy would not come into play.

But I expect that part of the plea deal will be that he receives immunity from further prosecution for anything the feds know about that he did that day. So even if Biden loses, that deal will remain in place and tie the hands of the next people in charge of the DOJ.

He was on video giving directions, telling people what to do, insisting they had to go into the Capitol Building, not just on Jan. 6th, but the evening before. The fact that they ended up charging him for only one misdemeanor after they had to be humiliated into doing so, proves explicitly that he was working for the Feds.

This proves Epps was a federal Asset. In case there’s any doubt remaining that will be removed at the trial with Fox- Discovery!

Epps was so awkwardly transparent as he was exhorting folks to bust into the Capitol that patriots started chanting "Fed. Fed. Fed. ..."

Revolver did great reporting on Epps, revealing that his photo mysteriously disappeared overnight from the FBI website requesting citizens' help in identifying faces in the crowd during the Capitol Caper. (A case of the right hand not knowing what the left hand was doing, perhaps?)

Somehow, I doubt Epps is going to get 20 years. This is the equivalent of the Hunter Biden plea deal that ended up getting thrown out. Maybe we can get a judge to do the same for Epps.

Epps said he was told that he was on a wanted poster as soon as he arrived home, so he called the FBI himself right away, and that’s why he was removed from the wanted list.

We don’t give a damn about charging Epps — we want the ones who gave him the marching orders.

Thinking they’ll cite Epps’ juciest acts and then just tank the prosecution, resulting in a Not Guilty verdict, giving Epps reliable protection from future prosecution based on a theory of Double Jeopardy. OTIH, this kind of corruption might be hard to coordinate with Epps’ attys and to then pull off the scam before a federal Article III district court judge.

"Just part of the coverup. Now people are supposed to think he was not operating for the government after all. Yet it only took years to charge Epps.

Ray Epps was not, strictly speaking, operating as an asset of the FBI/DOJ.

I'd be willing to bet that his actions were being facilitated by Perkins Coie. He was their asset. (notice where his lawyers come from)

It allows Garland to testify that Epps was not an FBI / DOJ asset without perjuring himself.

But then again as we learned from the Michael Sussmann case, the FBI had an office within Perkins Coie offices.....
