Julie Kelly, a senior editor of American Greatness, has compiled the so-called case against Officer Sicknick’s alleged attackers. This is a summary.
We know why Officer Sicknick died but the case against his alleged attackers continues, although there is seemingly no case. At first, we were told the officer was bludgeoned by a fire extinguisher and that turned out to be completely false.
The 42-year-old officer died of a stroke. The chemical sprayed in his direction during the chaos outside the Capitol on January 6 did not contribute to his death.
THE STORY
George Tanios and Julian Khater were arrested on March 14 and charged with several crimes including four counts related to possession and use of a “deadly or dangerous weapon” and for conspiring ahead of time to use the spray against police officers. They are still behind bars.
A judge today will decide if they can be released. They have not been convicted of any crime.
As with other January 6th ‘rioters,’ they’ve been denied bail. They are not presumed innocent under the new Democrat judicial system.
U.S. Magistrate Judge Michael Aloi lectured during a March 22 detention hearing. “We also generally know . . . that they were supporting the president who would not accept that he was defeated in an election. And so we have created this culture, radicalized by hate, and just refusal to really accept the result of a democratic process.”
He is a biased judge.
He described what happened to Officer Sicknick as “an assault on our nation’s home.”
He preached on: “I don’t think I have ever seen anything play out in a way that was more dangerous to our community.”
Even though Tanios did not spray the chemical, he, a business owner with no criminal worker, was ordered to remain in prison indefinitely.
The Justice Department is seeking to keep all the evidence, much of it from videos, from the defense. This is what they are doing to Khater and Tanios.
Law enforcement doesn’t know for certain if they used the spray at all. Under questioning by Tanios’ lawyer last month, FBI Special Agent Riley Palmertree could not confirm that either man pulled the trigger on the bear spray can.
In a separate filing, Julian Khater’s lawyers argued their client and Tanios were sprayed by others in the crowd, perhaps police officers, and never used the bear spray. The government even admitted in its affidavit that Khater at one point yelled out, “they just sprayed me.”
Khater’s family is asking the court to release him on a $15 million bond guaranteed by 16 family members. (As one journalist noted, that amount is three times higher than Harvey Weinstein’s bail.)
Neither man has a criminal record. There is no justification for them to be held in jail and in solitary.
The fact that the Justice Department is holding back the video evidence should send up all kinds of alarms.

The entire Potemkin society is a fraud, a hologram of smoking mirrors delusions and it is sad.
It was chronicled in a 400+ page book, Perfidy in Iowa. It all began with PETA (People Eating Tasty Animals) in their attempts to shut down the plant. Few people these days are aware how that burger gets to their table or a restaurant. It’s even more shocking to those who don’t understand the Kosher slaughter (Shechitah) process and cringe at the sight of blood. Since PETA couldn’t accomplish their goal they made accusations of child labor law violations and it was downhill from then on. Certain media organizations decided to “press” on with their own false accusations, and the FBI was the main culprit. Sound familiar? This was a man who could avail the resources to mount a defense all the way to SCOTUS. Most of those from January 6 aren’t that lucky. Authors have pointed out how the DC legal system is made to do just what government does best, enrich those who are part of “the system”. Over the past number of years many have been made aware how many Rubashkins are out there, and January 6 is one that is on a massive scale. And my main contention nowadays has been, Where are the Damn Republicans. I should Vote for You?
Unjustified is an understatement! Such a travesty for Mr. Rubashkin, his family and his employees. I never heard of this case. DOJ, FBI, CIA, etc., to me, are rogue agencies, flexing their power just because they can and get away with it too. With no accountability whatsoever! Disgusting!
How are we not in a full-blown fascist state. It isn’t noticeable as yet because the greater population hasn’t been overtly subjugated in their thinking. Antifa has deluded themselves into being blind to the true and factual Fascism in the US because their brand of fascism leaves them unaccountable. We may see the same “justice” to these people as was meted to those who engaged in riots during Trump’s inauguration .

Fascism has been growing in the US and is becoming more and more apparent. My first introduction was during the Bush administration. The timing of this was quite suspicious considering the events in Israel at the time. This incident may have been worse than the Dreyfus affair. It only woke up a few people for only a little while.
