A US judge on Monday apologized to the man accused of attempting to assassinate Donald Trump for the “legally deficient” treatment he has faced in a Washington DC, jail, including being placed on suicide watch, separated from other inmates and denied a Bible.
The US magistrate judge Zia Faruqui said he was disturbed by the conditions for Cole Allen, who allegedly fired a shotgun during a foiled attack on Trump and senior officials in his administration at a 25 April press gala. The judge said the conditions were inappropriate for a person with no criminal history.
“Whatever you’ve been through, I apologize,” Faruqui said during a court hearing.
I’m honestly reasonably confident that this whole show is (yet another) setup/false-flag, and the dude is just a patsy.
Hence the suicide watch…practice ice makes perfect
It’s easy for the FBI or CIA to incite a mentally disturbed person into action. They do it all the time
My theory is they knew he was there and what he was going to do but let it happen
How badly do you want that to be true versus how much the evidence actually suggests it to be true
I bet you believe Epstein committed suicide too
picking a shotgun for an assassination is about as effective as bringing a super soaker. what a joke.
Shorgun with buckshot
If his suicide watch is anything like Epstein’s, they’re not watching to prevent a suicide
denied a Bible
Lol ON NO NOT THAT.
They think they’re doing something important by not giving him a Bible. Fucking laughable
Denying any one of a prisoner’s rights is the first step to denying all of a prisoner’s rights.
If not the right to his religious text, then why the right to be visited by a priest? If not a priest, then why his family? And if not family, then why a lawyer – and if not a lawyer, then why even bother with a trial?
I mean sure, if you completely ignore the slippery slope fallacy.
Allowing a religious figure to meet with an inmate isn’t even close to the same thing as a lawyer or family member.
Maybe not for you and me. But for someone who is religious, that’s a very big deal.
“The slippery slope” isn’t inherently a fallacy
The Trump administration claims Allen is anti-christian, but Ken Klippenstein reported that Allen is actually Christian and led a Christian group at Caltech. So not having access to a Bible would be significant to him.
