        No it didn’t.

        The intended results are to show others what happens when you commit sedition against the US. Republicans making thier own disappear to avoid sentencing is not the intended result.

          Yup, house arrest and then we lose you. Oops.

          Republicans making thier own disappear to avoid sentencing is not the intended result.

          I’m not giving the legal system that much benefit of the doubt.

            This conspiracy theory doesn’t make much sense to me. If they wanted to they could have just gave him probation and sent him on his way, right? Why go through this convoluted path of charging him and convicting him, and let him go?

            Am I misunderstanding you? It feels like I’m misunderstanding you.

      I’m pretty sure that pretty much anyone else that’s ever been “delayed medical care” has the been out on house arrest. Why wasn’t he moved to a different jail, fed if necessary? Why did all these traitors get special treatment? Iirc the shaman asshat wasn’t getting his mommies organic food so he threw a fit and got some kind of special treatment too. Plus all the ridiculously comically light sentences.

    I mean…of course he did.

    He was put on house arrest because of awful prison conditions. He should’ve just been moved to another prison.

    What did they think he would do when he was about to be sent back? You put him in prison for a reason.

      I, for one, am SHOCKED that the violent man who violently stormed the Capital and committed violent acts against people would just up and vanish from his house arrest. It’s like he doesn’t even care about the law!

    Would not have happened had the jail treated him properly, I expect, and also I am unsurprised that someone who literally tried to overthrow the government would not comply with his release conditions.
