A key moment in determining whether Danny Rodriguez’s confession to electroshocking Mike Fanone is admissible.
Right before the FBI agent brought up HuffPost, Antifa, and BLM, his lawyers argued he "unambiguously and unequivocally invoked his right to remain silent."
In a filing last night, Danny Rodriguez’s federal public defenders argued that with "a simple ‘no,' Mr. Rodriguez specifically and clearly informed the agents he '[did not] want to' answer questions related to the alleged assault on Officer Fanone.” storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…
But watch for yourself. Danny Rodriguez shakes his head no, but then the FBI special agent chimes in.
“I’ll tell you what, everybody else is going to talk about that,” he says.
Danny Rodriguez quickly admits he’s “very ashamed.”
Russell James Peterson's sentencing is now underway. The feds want two weeks behind bars for the mid-30s man who wore a "(F**k) Your Feelings" sweatshirt on his trip to D.C. with his mother.

“What do you want me to tell you? That I
tased him? Yes. Am I a fucking piece of shit? Yes.”
