Under rettssaken mot en 6. januar-tiltalt, William Pope, kom det frem at påtalemyndigheten sitter på opptak som viser politi i sivil og uniform som hisser opp mengden og ber de angripe. Myndighetene har forsøkt å holde opptakene unna offentligheten.
federal prosecutors divulged in the case of one Jan. 6 defendant, William Pope, that there is police body-cam footage they don’t want to make public that shows D.C. Metropolitan Police officers — some in plain clothes — consorting with the protesters and even exhorting «Go! Go! Go!» as the protesters are trying to penetrate the Capitol.
In a brief filed late Friday by the U.S. Attorney’s office in Washington, D.C., prosecutors wrote: «The specific footage, GoPro video recorded by an MPD Police Officer who was stationed at the Capitol in an evidence-gathering capacity, captures the officer shouting words to the effect of ‘Go! Go! Go!’ (MPD-005-000035 at time stamp 2:37), ‘Go! Go! Go!’ (MPD-005-000035 at time stamp 7:23), and ‘Keeping going! Keep going!’ (MPD-005-000035 at time stamp 8:16) apparently to the individuals in front of him on the balustrade of the U.S. Capitol’s northwest staircase around 2:15 p.m.
«At other times in these videos, the officer and the two other plain clothes officers with him appear to join the crowd around them in various chants, to include ‘drain the swamp,’ ‘U.S.A.! U.S.A.! U.S.A.!’, and ‘Whose house? Our house!'»
Pope’s defense team has asked for permission to make the video footage public, but federal prosecutors told the court they want the trial judge’s protective order to remain in place to keep the video from becoming public.
«To do so would be like using a hammer when only a scalpel is needed,» the government argued in opposing the release of the tapes, adding they believed Pope’s «desire to try his case in the media rather than in a court of law is illegitimate.»
Det er meget spesielt at føderale påtaleansvarlige sier at det er illegitimt at informasjon som taler til tiltaltes fordel kommer ut i mediene. De røper en innstilling til fair rettsbehandling som ikke hører hjemme i et demokrati, men det er denne praksisen som Biden-regimet er kjent for.
Lov og rett er hva de bestemmer seg for i øyeblikket.
