Breitbart ^ | 04/09/2024 | KRISTINA WONG

Posted on 04/09/2024 9:40:58 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

A group of January 6 defendants has reportedly filed a class action lawsuit against 21 Capitol Police officers and others for millions of dollars in damages.

Defendant Jake Lang told Real America’s Voice on Friday that the group of more than 78 defendants filed the lawsuit, according to Newsweek.

He told the show, “I got shot in the foot with a rubber bullet, other people were bludgeoned nearly to death, hit with chemical spray and had long-lasting lung effects and so… we are now serving 21 defendants…Capitol Police officers, Capitol Police officials.”

Lang turned 29 on April 7 — his fourth birthday behind bars without a trial. He posted on X:

“Lang turned 29 on April 7 — his fourth birthday behind bars without a trial.”

Lang made a conscious decision to not proceed to trial. He could have done that by requesting to "detach" the 1512(c)(2) charge while that is being taken by the Supreme Court in Fischer and proceed to trial with the remaining charges.

That's because Lang is on film trying to hit police with an aluminum baseball bat - he actually landed a few hits..

Lang is bad news.

The JustUs department lawyers will tie this up for years.< P> Lang is the one who has delayed going to trial.

That's because he knows he's busted assaulting police. So he's serving time now which gets taken off any sentence.

That battle is fought on many small fronts. We need to applaud, encouraged and support every little thing.

How can no court in America not see the violations of the 4th and 8th amendments here and sit silent for all these years? What has happened to us? Sue these officers into poverty and homelessness so that they and their families live in a row of tents out by the tidal pool. Let them wake every morning to see the momuments to Washington and Lincoln and think back on how they sold out their country giving and enforcing a mass of illegal orders that day in January.

Not from what the video and stills allegedly show.

He’s grifted his donation page - making it look very similar to Dave Shipley’s GSG page.

J6 summary:

The FedMob set it up, agitated the crowd, turned down the President’s offer to authorize the Nat. Guard, hired punks like Ray Epps to instigate going into the Capitol, planted bombs at the RNC and DNC headquarters, misdirected the Capitol Police, opened electronic locks on Capitol doors, murdered Ashli Babbit outside the senate chambers and covered it up, conducted bogus partisan hearings on J6 to justify the falsehoods, hid video footage showing a generally peaceful crowd and to hide the instigators, maliciously prosecuted J6ers, and more.

More like Political Prisoners being made examples of.
