January 6 rioter who wore ‘Camp Auschwitz’ sweatshirt pleads guilty
2022-01-27
[IsraelTimes] Robert Keith Packer, 57, of Newport News, Virginia, pleaded guilty to parading, demonstrating or picketing in a Capitol building, a misdemeanor that carries a maximum sentence of six months imprisonment.
Six months? He probably spent longer in jail awaiting trial... unless he’s another FBI ringer.
US District Judge Carl Nichols is scheduled to sentence him on April 7.

FBI
...Formerly one of the world's premier criminal investigation organizations, something for a nation to be proud of. Now it's a political arm of the Deep State oligarchy that is willing to trump up charges, suppress evidence, or take out insurance policies come election time...
agents arrested Packer a week after the riot. He remains free pending his sentencing hearing.

A witness who contacted law enforcement recognized Packer as a regular customer at a store near Newport News. A surveillance camera captured an image of him wearing the same sweatshirt in the store in December 2020.

Assistant US Attorney Mona Furst said Packer entered the Capitol despite seeing broken glass and coppers using tear gas. Packer was in the area where a police officer shot a rioter, Ashli Babbitt, and he left the building after that fatal shooting, Furst said.

More than 730 people have been charged with federal crimes related to the Capitol riot. About 200 of them have pleaded guilty, mostly to misdemeanors. building after that fatal shooting, Furst said.

#3  So he spent over a year in prison for a misdemeanor ticket?? He pled guilty because if he did not he would spend another year awaiting trial. They were and are examples of the elites trying to insure we stay in line...
