Court hearing just wrapped for #AirHeadLady Maryann Mooney-Rondon. Sentencing memos due in early July.
This case began with the FBI raiding the Alaska home of a woman they believed was AirHeadLady, then the sleuths solved it in 30 minutes and correctly identified Mooney-Rondon.
Mooney-Rondon aided with the left of Pelosi’s laptop, but didn’t actually take it.
“Online investigators went to work after the botched raid to find the right identities and were very quickly able to identify the Rondons.” huffpost.com/entry/capitol-…
This was a stipulated bench trial, so the whole thing was less than an hour. Details should be docketed soon.
Pretty quiet courtroom for #AirheadLady's stipulated bench trial. Appeared to be accompanied by her husband. Here's what she admitted.
THREAD: Over two years ago, a Jan. 6 defendant told a court that he'd witnessed Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes (now serving an 18 year seditious conspiracy sentence) that he'd witnessed Rhodes try to contact Donald Trump during the Capitol attack.
That Jan. 6 defendant, William Todd Wilson, admitted that he heard Rhodes “repeatedly implore" an unidentified party he was speaking with "to tell President Trump to call upon groups like the Oath Keepers to forcibly oppose a transfer of power." nbcnews.com/politics/justi…
Rhodes himself was convicted at trial and, in May 2023, sentenced to 18 years in federal prison. But that phone call wasn't a focus for prosecutors.
The only man known to have participated in both the News Fight in Anchorman (2004) and the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol (2021) plans to plead guilty on July 8, per court docket.
He doesn’t count for any “law enforcement officers who stormed the Capitol” stats, but he’s certainly played a cop a bunch! nbcnews.com/politics/justi…
Lots of false claims about Jan. 6 grandmas on this site, so just pointing out that a J6 grandmom sentenced today got approval to take a trip to France for D-Day events right before her sentencing.
Kymberly Sylvester received probation, $500 in restitution, and no fine. On Zoom.
"I had an encounter with a young man wearing a 'Coon-skin hat', who was very close to me in the crowd. He stated to me it was a good day to 'kill someone.'"
"I entered the building with pure stupidity and there is simply no excuse for that... It is hard to live with the fact that I was a part of a crowd who ultimately caused great harm to the Capitol police.
Defense memo: "Starting in 2008, Kimberly began organizing yearly trips for WWII veterans and their families for DDay memorial events in France through Honor Flights."
