The New York City lawyers accused of hurling a Molotov cocktail into a NYPD van are back in custody after a decision to release them on bail was reversed in court.

On Friday, the US Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of New York announced that lawyers Urooj Rahman, 31, and Clinford Mattis, 32, were back in federal custody after the U.S. Court of Appeals reversed the bail decision by the District Court.

Meanwhile, a video has emerged that reveals Rahman blaming Mayor Bill de Blasio for not restraining officers for their own safety less than one hour before the alleged incident.

Her actual violent crime allowed her to get out on bail, but a video of her bad mouthing de Blah Blah was the clincher to have it revoked. Okaaaayyyyy.

Well, that's excellent news. Let's have federal terrorism charges for these two. Maybe they can enjoy a wicked pepper steak.

Doesn’t that make the lawyers political prisoners?

Well, they certainly are snappy dressers. Guess that's arson attire. Evening attire.

She looks very happy. Hope they give her 20 years for terrorism.

Well, I can hope, right?

Maybe or maybe not...

There could be a plea bargain for both of them...
Plea guilty to a felony for a lenient sentence...

The guy is suspended from his law firm...
She is unemployed at this time...

I once watched a documentary about porn actors on Pluto TV...
A porn actress left the business and became a real estate agent...
One day her employer fired her...Somebody contacted the employer and stated that she used to be a porn actress...
She used her real name for employment...But, the employer still found out...My point is that it is not easy to hide one’s past...

These two people will eventually have to work somewhere...
The female lawyer might apply for some job without telling the employer that she was once arrested for throwing a Molotov cocktail...She might get hired for that job...Then, one day the employer might find out the truth...Then she will be fired for being dishonest...

Could both of them work for Senator Schumer?
No...I don’t see that happening...I think even Schumer would be uncomfortable hiring people who tried to destroy police cars...

Weird... we know who bailed out Ulooj but that story made no mention of who bailed out Clinford Mattis. So, who bailed him out ?

It’s difficult to practice law, after you lose your law licence.

Say, has anyone gone to that $250k/yr lawyer in DC, who used to help prepare the Presidential Daily Briefing for 0moeba the Wunder Muslim, and ask them if they regret personally guaranteeing bail for this apparent terrorist?

Since (speaking charitably) one possible reason for guaranteed bail would be ethnic / national solidarity with another "person of colour" busy "fighting the system" and resisting "OrangeManBad."

Or if they secretly approve of that person's actions, and that's why they guaranteed bail?

You want to bet?

The former Dem Speaker of the House, Jim Wright, had a top staffer who apparently tried to hammer and stab a woman to death.

From what little I’ve read or heard, getting free of that industry is tough.

There was once a teacher or school staffer years ago that was fired when it was found she was in the business years before going to a legit job.

If they were working for Antifa that makes them international terrorists. What is the charge for joining a foreign mercenary unit against America?

She’ll get a job w/ NY Times, CNN or MSNBC. This arrest and any pending convictions will be resume enhancers.

If I was on the jury, I’d happily give them 25-30 years.
