You don’t see this very often in federal court, but one of the January 6 (J6) Defendants, Lucas Denney, is being held illegally. He was arrested in Texas on December 13, 2021, and brought before a federal magistrate, who ordered him detained without bond on a criminal Complaint. It then took six weeks to transfer him to DC, where he is currently being held. He has not appeared before a federal judge in DC since his arrival, although that will change Monday afternoon as a result of his lawyer seeking his release.
Denney’s case involves two distinct, major screwups. The first is that he was not afforded a Preliminary Hearing, to which he is entitled under the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure and the Constitution. The second is that he has not been indicted by a grand jury within 30 days of his arrest, as required by the federal Speedy Trial Act. Consequently, Denney’s detention has been unlawful since at least late January 2022.
The Department of Justice (DOJ) alleges that Denney participated in the riot on January 6, 2021, in Washington D.C. at the United States Capitol. It charged Denney with five felonies: assaults, civil disorder, and obstructions of an official proceeding, and with seven trespassing misdemeanors. An arrest warrant was issued for him in December 2021 based on a criminal Complaint sworn out by a law enforcement officer, not on an indictment returned by a grand jury.
Denney was arrested on December 13, 2021, in Texas, where he lives, and taken before a federal magistrate there. According to the docket of his case, he appeared before the federal magistrate on December 14, 2021, for what the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure call an “Initial Appearance.” That is just what it sounds like: it’s the first time a judicial officer sees a person after they are arrested. Its purpose is to make sure the person has been legally arrested. The Constitution requires that the Initial Appearance be held promptly, generally within 48 hours.

You all are forgetting one thing. The Patriot Act which allows for them to lock up "terrorists" indefinitely without charges, bail, or other normal criminal rights. The problem is, who defines who is a terrorist? It seemed simple enough in 2001, but now it depends on who is in power and who will stand up for it. Since the left decided, calls them such, that the J6 defendents are "terrorists," they fall under the act. https://ratical.org/ratville/CAH/Section802.html#802
Don't leave out the National Defense Resource Preparedness Act. It lets Govco seize all industries and methods of transportation for any emergency they drum up, whether food, transportation, energy, and everything that is necessary to life.
Jea, America is no longer a republic!!!!! It has been "fundamentally transformed" into an oligarchy trending towards a communist dictatorship!!!!! Both political parties are allied against We the People and the very small minority of patriotic republican politicians who honor their oath of office to the Constitution!!!!!!!!!!!
I know, Bob. We have lost the most promising country and the most Godly form of government possible, a Republic based on common law and the Law of Nature and Nature's God, where We rule the government. We have so drummed to believe we must so this or that, whereas our founders would have just taken care of things. Now the created is overwhelmingly more powerful and larger than the the Creator. We are like specks, reminding me of David and Goliath......
Jea, correct!!!!! I am old and disabled so would be quite a liability on a physical battlefield despite my training and experience so I fight where I can, with the written word and on the spiritual battlefield, the spiritual battlefield being the most important one!!!!!!!!!!
The "Patriot Act" is anything but patriotic. It was written to give career political hacks totalitarian control over We the People!!!!! Until the political establishment is depoised we will live under a dictatorship established by gop establishment TRAITORS!!!!!!!!!!
Exactly, we allowed it to be passed in fear, if we try to voice our opinions, we may end up right next to the January 6th defendents.
Prosecutors, judges all need to be held a countable.......all this is unconstitutional!

The reason why the FBI , US Attorny,s ,DOJ and members of Congress are permitting this Illegal detention is because they wish to send "We The People" a message and that being WE HAVE THE POWER AND YOU DON,T . So don,t mess with us .
BUT !!!!! We the people do have the power if we only use it . "WE THE PEOPLE" have the power to demand that our state reps vote YES to holding an article V Convention Of The States . FIRST order of business should be Term Limites , say 20 yrs and out and that goes for DEEP STATERS Also... 20 and out unless your fired before the 20 years. It,s the life timers that have Corrupted the hell out of the US Government !
