One of those charged with sedition conspiracy is now being interviewed in depth by Tucker Carlson on the charges. It is incredibly rare for a criminal defendant to take such a risk in an interview...
...Few defense lawyers would sign off on such an interview due to the risk. Any contradictions could be cited by the prosecutors. Thomas Caldwell is denying every factual assertion, including his conspiracy to smuggle arms by boat...
...Once before a court, there may be a gag order issued by the court. Thus, Caldwell could be clearing the record before he is barred from public comments. It could also be viewed as useful in raising needed support for legal fees and costs.
...One interesting element is his continued denial that he ever took a step into the Capitol, an allegation previously leveled against him. That would not render a conspiracy theory invalid but does raise a factual dispute on what he was doing as part of this alleged conspiracy
