Judge Amy Berman Jackson has ordered DOJ to advise her by Wednesday whether there’s a video of Daniel Rodriguez confessing to electroshocking D.C. Officer Mike Fanone during the Capitol attack, and to provide a copy to the court if there is.
This is the interview where Daniel Rodriguez refers to himself as a “fucking piece of shit” and a FBI special agent told him he need to combat the story being told "by antifa, BLM, and the Huffington Post.” huffpost.com/entry/danny-ro…
Danny Rodriguez’s federal public defenders want his confession suppressed because he endured "a traumatic arrest at his home” and was "questioned early in the morning on little sleep” by agents who used "psychologically coercive interrogation tactics."
"At the point Mr. Rodriguez concedes his guilt, agents have pushed Mr. Rodriguez to take advantage of this ‘opportunity' four different times—and all while Mr. Rodriguez is visibly upset, crying, and handcuffed to the wall.” storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…
A reminder that FBI recordings of custodial interviews are a relatively recent phenomenon. Trump fanatic Danny Rodriguez can thank the Obama administration for the fact that there’s a recorded record of his interrogation: justice.gov/opa/pr/attorne…
Danny Rodriguez was far from the toughest nut to crack, but the FBI’s special agents’ interrogation skills really do shine through in this interview.

“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…
In the Rodriguez case, the government was supposed to inform the court by Friday "whether a plea offer has been extended in this case and if not, why not.” There’s a hearing set for Nov. 16.
After he electroshocked Officer Mike Fanone, Danny Rodriguez said he heard Gina Bisignano calling him over the megaphone.
“I'm like, what the hell? Who's calling my name? I'm in D.C.”
