It’s not that he hates America as much as he hates Trump, frankly he’s pissed this guy didn’t succeed

No question.
But I think he hates America as well.

A liberal federal judge in DC has sparked outrage after apologizing to Donald Trump's alleged would-be assassin for restrictions placed on him behind bars.

Cole Tomas Allen, 31, has been held in 24-hour lockup ever since he was placed in federal custody, after prosecutors say he attempted to gain access to the White House Correspondents' Association dinner to kill the President.

Magistrate Judge Zia Faruqui slammed attorneys during a Monday afternoon court hearing over the conditions of Allen's imprisonment. Allen was placed on suicide watch when he was first jailed.

'At a minimum I should be apologizing to him. We are obligated to make sure he’s taken care of. Mr. Allen, I’m sorry that things have not been the way they are supposed to,' the judge said.

Faruqui went on to compare Allen's imprisonment to defendants arrest for rioting at the Capitol on January 6, 2021.

'To me, it’s extremely disturbing that he was put in five-point restraints, a person with no criminal history,' Faruqui added. 'It’s troubling. I never heard of one Jan. 6 defendant who was put in five-point restraints or in a safe cell. If the only way to keep him safe is the most punitive thing, that’s a problem.'

The judge ordered officials at the DC jail to update him by tomorrow morning about Allen's requested jail accommodations. Allen's attorneys filed a motion on Sunday demanding he be removed from suicide watch restrictions in prison.

While admonishing prison officials, Judge Faruqui emphasized that Allen is presumed innocent until proven guilty. Yet Allen posted a manifesto admitting to the shooting, and video footage captured the would-be assassin rushing past Secret Service while wielding a shotgun before agents opened fire.

Comment:
Well I do not feel sorry for him.
He is not being treated as bad as the Jan 6 suspects were treated.
They should make him off of suicide watch and put him in a general population cell.

The J6 protesters imprisoned under 3rd World conditions should have brought a class action against the jailers.

At first, I thought the article was the Onion or Babylon Bee.

Yes, and he is not trying that hard to keep it the secret.

He brought up january sixth, just like any Trump deranged poster on this forum.

Seriously. WTF did January 6th have to do with this loon's incarceration?

He just wanted an excuse to bring up the january six pardons. Maybe hoping to lay the framework for the next democrat president to pardon him.

Too stupid to know that things like that are the exact reason.It is unlikely we will have another democrat President in his lifetime.

Hard to envision a more clear cut case of attempted suicide by cop than rushing 1,000 cops armed with a shotgun.
