The government has indicated that it will object to Danny Rodriguez trying to argue at trial that he electroshocked D.C. Officer Mike Fanone on Jan. 6 on behalf of former President Trump.
They also argue that his Miranda warning before he confessed to electroshocking Officer Mike Fanone was valid, and that his interview should not be suppressed. huffpost.com/entry/danny-ro…

If you need a read before HBO’s Jan. 6 doc, here’s the FBI interview with the self-described “fucking piece of shit” who electroshocked Mike Fanone because he actually believed the Big Lie.
“Are we all that stupid that we thought we were going to go do this and save the country and it was all going to be fine after? We really thought that. That’s so stupid, huh?” huffpost.com/entry/danny-ro…
MR. RODRIGUEZ: Is there really going to be all these prison cells open for all of us or what?

AGENT ELIAS: What are you talking about?

MR. RODRIGUEZ: Is there enough room for all those 10,000 patriots?

Hearing underway for Daniel “D.J.” Rodriguez, charged with electroshocking Officer Mike Fanone during the Capitol attack.

Rodriguez, who is appearing virtually, said he’s doing “okay.”

He’s got a new federal public defender out of Las Vegas.

Judge Amy B. Jackson presiding.
Defense says the government will not extend a formal plea agreement until Daniel Rodriguez sits down and talks.

Government says there are “extenuating circumstances” particular to this case, and they need him to debrief about “other individuals” he knows before plea offer.
D.J. Rodriguez has been in custody since March. He was arrested a month after HuffPost, building on the work of online sleuths and antifascists, identified him. #TaserPrick huffpost.com/entry/daniel-j…

A hearing for Danny “D.J.” Rodriguez (who attacked D.C. Officer Mike Fanone) is underway.

Rodriguez is eligible for court-appointed counsel, but the D.C. federal public defender is swamped. So his federal public defenders are from Nevada.

A few updates on Danny Rodriguez, aka #TaserPrick, who was arrested last week after he was indicted for electroshocking a D.C. cop on Jan. 6. huffpost.com/entry/daniel-j…
Rodriguez’s docket in the Central District of California was finally filled in this week after a judge ordered him detained and sent to D.C.
And a tipster send me a video they found featuring Danny Rodriguez before the Capitol attack. Someone with a high-quality camera ended up right behind Rodriquez. The video shows him trailing a known associate and using a walkie talkie to communicate. #SeditionHunters

Who else had VIP or Access or Security badges and showed up at the Capitol for the insurrection?

Note that the red areas on the Capitol Grounds Demonstration Areas Map are "No demonstrations permitted."

#TaserPrick #SeditionHunters #SeditionHunter @SeditionHunters Let's find this coward! This is Officer Michael Fanone being tased in the neck. Fanone suffered a heart attack as a result of this assault. I think TaserPrick is an appropriate name.

#TaserPrick A real tough guy in his Infowars shirt (on sale!) and Wiley WX Tactical glasses. The perfect uniform for a "Badass wannabee" who does a hit and run. Twitter, make him famous. ImageImage
