There is no moral issue in giving such a man the consequences of he confesses to.

Oh wow, talk about all secret things eventually being revealed:

...
Utah County sheriff’s deputies also launched another investigation into Zinn while he was hospitalized.

FBI investigators interviewed him at the hospital, where he admitted he wasn’t the shooter, but he also said he “uses (his) phone to look at child sexual abuse material” after initially refusing to let investigators go through his phone, according to a second jail report completed by the Utah County Sheriff’s Office later on Monday.

Investigators went through the phone and found multiple images containing children believed to be approximately 5 years old, according to the affidavit. The FBI agents alerted deputies, who reviewed the phone and found more than 20 images of child pornography along with explicit messages about sexual acts.

Zinn has been arrested and charged numerous times over the past 30 years, mostly for trespassing in political spaces, according to state court records.

As a repeat offender, give the old hippie a 10 year sentence. That should remove him from society forever.

Perhaps his successor should be Vivek. He’s got the ‘it’ factor. He can run for the Ohio governorship at the same time. Visit the colleges and do it indoors with the TSA screeners at the door.

As gov. he can then pass the torch.

Zinn is a local agitator who inserts himself into various events.

I thought from the get-go that this jerk may have been part of a coordinated escape plan for the real assassin.

Maybe I was right.

Kash Patel says they’re investigating whether others besides Robinson were involved.

He might be charged with interfering with an investigation.

He is being charged with obstruction of justice...

If convicted, how many hours will he have to spend in prison?

Oh, Zinn is going to be charged with much more than obstruction now that they found he is into child porn.

Even if he has no connection to the assassin, and didn’t have anything to do with the murder plot, Charlie’s murder led to the exposure of Zinn’s sins and who knows what else, may lead to justice being done for the victims in Zinn’s criminal case.

He thought he was the smartest person in the room. His arrogance led to his downfall.

Hopefully he gets prison time so he will discover insertion from a different perspective.

Asner was an outright self-professed Communist.
