Two Brooklyn lawyers who were charged for allegedly tossing a Molotov cocktail into a New York Police Department vehicle early Saturday morning were also trying to pass out firebombs to other George Floyd demonstrators, federal authorities said Monday. Colinford Mattis, 32, a corporate attorney with Pryor Cashman, and attorney Urooj Rahman, 31, allegedly threw the bomb into an empty police cruiser that was parked outside the 88th Precinct station house in Fort Greene, Brooklyn, cops say. It was revealed on Monday that Mattis and Rahman also attempted to pass out the incendiary devices to others who were at the protest. According to the New York Post, a bystander told authorities that Rahman 'tried to distribute Molotov cocktails to the witness and others so that those individuals could likewise use the incendiary devices in furtherance of more destruction and violence'.

That little bit of added evidence will make it difficult to plead impulse.

Every single time I see that photo I wonder if AB InBev paid for product placement.

They face a mandatory minimum sentence of five years and a maximum of 20 years in jail. They face federal charges and were arraigned Monday.

...

The car didn’t even catch fire, and the story says she just lost her job before the incident. She can look forward to free room and board now.

Wow, those two just lost their jobs and clients as well as the respect of the people. Say goodbye to any client-funded trips and other activities.

Idiots. If they’re convicted they’ll probably lose their licenses.

They’ll both end up as ACLU lawyers — guaranteed. I’ve never heard of a lawyer losing his or her license permanently unless it was part of a settlement for ripping off clients.
