US Justice Dept has released series of messages allegedly sent by accused Oath Keeper Donovan Crowl of Ohio before and after the US Capitol Insurrection.
"Colluding to wage a Guerilla War against United States"
Planning emergency hideout "bugout" plan if the "usurper" is installed..... hiding out in the mountains of Kentucky
Messages indicate fears of "drone surveillance" against them when Trump left office
Amid string of messages, an accused Oath Keeper compares Jan 6 to the Boston Tea Party, but indicates it was more important and dangerous
Feds allege Crowl sent a message at 3am on Jan. 6 that he was planning on ANTIFA "hunting"
In new court filing, feds allege Crowl was a leader and conspirator of effort to disrupt electoral college count on Jan. 6.... sending message on Jan. 4 about his trip to DC for an "Oath Keeper op"
Message allegedly sent by Oath Keepers compared force needed at Insurrection to "rugby".... with instructions to take shields from police officers, amid chants of "We Want Trump!"
Meanwhile.. defense attorneys are trying to convince a judge to *release* Donovan Crowl from custody pending future hearings. US Justice Dept prosecutors are arguing for pretrial detention, which is why they've filed w/ court a set of the messages I've just posted
