For J6 Hostages files 🧵

In August, DC appellate court overturned Biden/Graves DOJ sentencing requests for those convicted/pleaded to "parading" in the Capitol--a common J6 misdemeanor.

DOJ and judges unlawfully asked for/granted jail time and probation for "paraders"...

DOJ/judges knew they were violating sentencing guidance but didn't care. (A few judges denied DOJs request for split sentences based on what appellate court eventually concluded--they were illegal.)

At least 60 J6ers received "unlawful" sentences.

James Little appealed. He served 60 days in jail and was placed on 3 years' probation. Appellate court vacated his sentence and sent back to judge.

But instead of Matthew Graves taking the L, he sees the appellate order as an opportunity to start from scratch. Never mind Little already served his jail sentence and has been on probation for almost 2 years.

Graves is prepared to ask Judge Hogan for a LONGER probation term or--more jail time.

The reason why judges--including Judge Tom Hogan (Reagan) in the Little case--ordered 3 years' probation was to permit the government to monitor J6er behavior thru 2024 election. They made no attempt to hide it.

So to bolster his argument Little should serve more prison time or a longer probation sentence bc he could become a repeat "parader" in 2024, Graves scoured Little's social media accounts.

Graves attached 33 pages of screenshots of Little's FB account.

THIS IS FOR A PETTY OFFENSE USUALLY HANDLED BY DC LOCAL COURT IF AT ALL.

So, what were the incriminating posts?

Here are a few.

Call them what you want--political prisoners or hostages--but there is nothing normal about this:

And it sure sounds like DOJ doesn't want J6ers posting about their raids by FBI (FOR MISDEMEANORS)
