Jan 6 defendant Matthew Perna has reportedly committed suicide. American Greatness senior writer Julie Kelly broke the news Sunday morning. "If confirmed, this defendant committed no violent crime and walked through an open door with Capitol police present," Kelly wrote in the initial tweet. "Biden's DOJ has tried to destroy so many lives over the past year--they may have another victim," Kelly tweeted over the weekend. "If what I am hearing is true, the Biden regime and news media have blood on their hands." "When confirmed, this story should outrage every single American. And when I say these prosecutors are sadistic, I mean it," Kelly declared on Twitter. If what I am hearing is true, the Biden regime and news media have blood on their hands. (At least one other Jan 6 defendant has committed suicide.)

When confirmed, this story should outrage every single American. And when I say these prosecutors are sadistic, I mean it.— Julie Kelly ?? (@julie_kelly2) February 27, 2022 Kelly later wrote Sunday afternoon, "This is true. I cannot express the rage I feel after speaking with his family," further revealing: "More on this tomorrow." This is true. I cannot express the rage I feel after speaking with his family. More on this tomorrow. https://t.co/3deyk44VMG— Julie Kelly ?? (@julie_kelly2) February 27, 2022 Perna was charged by federal authorities with Obstruction of an Official Proceeding and Aiding and Abetting, Entering and Remaining in a Restricted Building or Grounds, Disorderly and Disruptive Conduct in a Restricted Building or Grounds, and Disorderly Conduct in a Capitol Building. According to the Department of Justice's case description, Perna was arrested on Jan. 19, 2021, indicted more than a month later on Feb. 25, 2021, and entered a plea agreement on Dec. 17, 2021, pleading guilty to all counts. Perna was seen in surveillance footage inside the Capitol building wearing a red Make America Great Again hoodie. Perna maintained that he was pushed into the building by a crowd that had gathered behind him, according to the criminal complaint, and that he hadn't intended to go inside. Perna insisted that he was only in the building for only five to 10 minutes on Jan. 6, the complaint reads. Perna's sentencing was set to take place on March 3, 2022, for charges that carry a sentence of up to 20 years in prison and a $250,000 fine on the felony, with additional penalties related to the misdemeanors, WKBN reported. Pro-life activist and independent journalist Tayler Hansen said Perna "has been bullied to death by the DOJ." Perna's family said, "They informed him the other day that they were pursuing additional charges. He couldn't take another day," according to Hansen. J6th defendant, Matthew Perna has been bullied to death by the DOJ.

Not accused of violence or vandalism.

His family says:

“They informed him the other day that they were pursuing additional charges. He couldn’t take another day.”— Tayler Hansen (@TaylerUSA) February 27, 2022 Hansen said Perna's family is "heartbroken and angry at everyone responsible." "This is not the first time, and will not be the last. The January 6th death toll will continue to rise if nothing is done about the over-reaching tyranny of the current Regime," Hansen declared, as Jan. 6 defendants continue to contend with the Biden administration's political witch hunt and poor detainment conditions. Uploading photos of Pensa, Hansen confirmed on Twitter that Kelly will have a detailed story on "this grave injustice from the 'justice system' tomorrow."

But he’s killed himself & I understand why. I had the same thoughts many times this past year. The deafening silence of Republicans &conservative media for ppl dragged through this hell is unbearable," commented #WalkAway founder Brandon Straka, who has faced his own battle with the Justice Department.

The veteran of the Marine Corps and Florida Army National Guard's 3/20th Special Forces Group was arrested in February and indicted a month later on eight counts. Anderson was granted pretrial release in March 2021 and ordered to stay away from the District of Columbia except for business related to the Jan 6 case. "John didn't deserve what he had to endure before his death," Anderson's lawyer Marina Medvin stated, emphasizing that he was a "good-hearted man."

Another Clintoonesque style “suicide”.

[Sirius Lee]

The penalty for “parading without a permit” is death. Welcome to the BRA (Banana Republic of America)

[bray]

Apparently, didn’t want to live in Pelosi’s Soviet Union.

[ConservativeMind]

Who can’t wait to do this back to Democrats?

"deafening silence of Republicans &conservative media for ppl dragged through this hell is unbearable"

There were reports of 22 hours of solitary confinement, reports prisoners were denied medical care, that they were being threatened and beaten by the gaurds.

What was done about this?

Not one effing thing!

😠

[vivenne]

This is heartbreaking. Political prisoners in the USA. We have no business getting involved or even commenting on what other countries are doing while this is going on here.

[JayGalt]

This death is the saddest thing I’ve read in a month of Sundays. This is the Democrats’ world, the death of freedom & the jackboots of thugs and sociopaths.
1984 came slowly but the arrival was assured by the theft of an election; most likely elections have been corrupted for decades.

[Trump Girl Kit Cat]

Our side are a bunch of pussies that will never reciprocate what the hell has been done to us!! They will write strongly worded letters, and have numerous hearings that have no consequences BLA, BLA, BLA!! Our side NEVER delivers justice NEVER!! Now our side sits on their hands SILENT as political prisoners are left to rot in jail!!

[vivenne]

Yes. They will. There really can not be any “getting along” with them after seeing who they really are the past few years.

[DIRTYSECRET]

He was weak.

This is why I have little excitement about the “next election.” The Republicans running this November will say all the right things when campaigning.......how many times have we heard how they will fight for us?.......and do nothing once they get the job. FAKES.

They have no excuse for their inaction to help these people who are probably Republicans. Can you imagine if the situation was reversed? If democrat citizens were imprisoned? The dems would be screaming.

[sport]

It damn sure if the Republican and Democrat Party doesn’t approve of the parade. ANTIFA and BLM do not need a permit. Trump supporters can’t get a permit. What they get are Police bullets.

His obituary.

https://www.flynnfuneralhome.com/obituary/matthew-perna

He couldn’t take it anymore. I can’t even imagine.

[HollyB]

“ He attended the rally on January 6, 2021 to peacefully stand up for his beliefs. After learning that the FBI was looking for him, he immediately turned himself in. He entered the Capitol through a previously opened door (he did not break in as was reported) where he was ushered in by police. He didn’t break, touch, or steal anything. He did not harm anyone, as he stayed within the velvet ropes taking pictures. For this act he has been persecuted by many members of his community, friends, relatives, and people who had never met him. Many people were quietly supportive, and Matt was truly grateful for them. The constant delays in hearings, and postponements dragged out for over a year. Because of this, Matt’s heart broke and his spirit died, and many people are responsible for the pain he endured. Matt did not have a hateful bone in his body. He embraced people of all races, income brackets, and beliefs, never once berating anyone for having different views.”

Matthew Perna

Matt loved to travel and lived in Thailand and South Korea during his life, teaching English to school children.

He traveled extensively throughout Europe, Asia, South America, India and the United States of America making lasting friendships everywhere he went. He went on a mission trip to Haiti and also took many trips with his parents and brother Steve. Matt enjoyed conversing with all walks of life, especially the elderly. It was not unusual for him to strike up conversations with complete strangers, always eager to learn from others.

Matt enjoyed running long distance races and held medals from several states. He enjoyed reading every day and owned an extensive library of books. He loved music of all types and played piano and saxophone. He was an adventurer who loved trying different cuisines from all over the world and experiencing as many different cultures as he could.

Matt loved animals, especially dogs.

Matt is survived by his loving father, Lawrence of Sharpsville; his brother, Steven of Nederland, Colorado; his grandmother, Rosie Garzoni of Hermitage and several aunts, uncles and cousins

. Matt attended Central Community Church in Transfer, Pennsylvania. He was a Christian who read his Bible daily.

Matt’s family stood by him during this devastating ordeal and are extremely proud of his passion for life and his pursuit of many dreams. His actions last year are not looked down upon, instead his family is grateful and humbled by his courage. They say God never gives anyone more than they can handle. That statement is not Biblical, nor is it true. Rest Easy Matt, you are finally FREE!
