THREAD: Brad Bennett of North Carolina has just filed new request to be released from jail
His case is interesting
He's accused of posting on Facebook: “FAIR WARNING. IF THIS ELECTION IS STOLEN FOR BIDEN, PATRIOTS WILL GO TO WAR.”
But there's also what happened *after* Jan 6
Feds allege Bennett went dark as they searched for him.
He was "laying low", advised others he couldn't use phone and didn't surrender for 12 days after agents notified him of arrest warrant, per feds
Oh.. and federal agents say Bennett instructed close associates to shift to "TELEGRAM" for encryption and threw a $1000 phone out of the window on the way to the courthouse
Feds say Bennett was inside the US Senate chamber on Jan 6.... one of the charges he faces is a felony.
They say he has a "disregard" for the law and complying with it
To secure his release from jail, Bennett is offering to be confined in home detention, with an ankle monitor and a 3rd party custodian to monitor him
