OK - now #insurrectionBlues presentment of former NYPD officer Sara Carpenter, for being in the Capitol "shaking a tambourine." She just got assigned a Federal Defender. Inner City Press will live tweet, thread below. For now, 1st song: soundcloud.com/innercitypress…
EDNY Magistrate Judge Sanket J. Bulsara: Ms. Carpenter, you were arrested on a D.D.C. warrant. Do you want an identity hearing or a preliminary hearing?
Federal Defender: She waives both.
AUSA: We are not seeking detention, given Ms. Carpenter's cooperation to date with the investigation and her self-surrender today. She gave her passport to the FBI this morning.
Judge: I have a couple of questions. The US Attorney in DC agrees to release?
AUSA: Yes
And that's it. DOJ has increasingly been asking for detention. But not here, for tambourine ex-NYPD officer. Other #insurrectionBlues proceedings starting up in District of DC - new thread

OK - #insurrectionBlues case against UCLA student Christian Secor in DDC. US is asking for detention. Inner City Press will live tweet, thread below. For now, song (2 weeks ago, Reffitts) soundcloud.com/innercitypress…
AUSA says Secor was planning to flee.
Judge Trevor N. McFadden cuts in: You mean where he says, even if I go away, if they want me, they'll get me?
AUSA: He told agents about fleeing to Oregon. He has access to money from several sources.
AUSA: Secor has made purchases at gun stores. And he has only one registered fire arm. In California one can manufacture one's own gun - but then must take it in to register it.
Judge: Is that different than in Virginia?
AUSA: My understanding is limited.

Jury is coming in, filing in front of the prosecutors' table.
Judge Rakoff: Please be seated. In a moment we will read out your verdict. I will not comment on it. You have been a terrific jury.
Opening of verdict form.

OK - #insurrectionBlues showdown, DDC Judge Amit Mehta has convened the lawyers in the Oathkeepers case - he begins with 60 Minutes interview. Inner City Press will live tweet, thread below, for now song: soundcloud.com/innercitypress…
Judge Mehta: I hope DOJ is looking into the propriety of the 60 Minutes interview... No matter how much press this case gets, the defendants are entitled to a fair process. These statements could impact the jury pool. The government should know better.
Judge Mehta: Read local criminal rule 57.7, which governs public comments on pending criminal cases. I intend to vigorously enforce it. DOJ needs to understand these statements can impact the rights of defendants. I will not tolerate this.

OK - now #insurrectionBlues case of Jeffrey McKellop, US DOJ is asking DDC Magistrate Faruqui to detain him until trial. Inner City Press will live tweet - thread below. Story of Tanios: innercitypress.com/ddc31taniosicp… For now, song: soundcloud.com/innercitypress…
Now that these #insurrectionBlues detention hearing revolve almost entirely around videos that the Government is showing, having the public access to only by AT&T call-in line is not as helpful as it might be. WV hearing of Tanios was be Zoom. Why not DDC? Image
Update: the McKellop proceeding has been paused - the defendant "is receiving medical treatment." Judge Faruqui suggested starting again tomorrow but lawyer says to wait and see if it can be done today. Judge Faraqui keeps it open - thread will continue
