People only need to go to jail or prison for crimes. Witness intimidation is a crime.
The thing is where will you house the orange asshole's Secret Service detail in a prison?
That's gotta be a huge drawback for any judge to send him to prison during a trial.
Insurrectionists don't deserve secret service protection.
If a U.S. President Goes to Prison, Does the Secret Service Go, Too?
*** There are multiple links in the article that I haven't transferred here.
Personally I think that any former president who winds up incarcerated should have to serve their time in the military side of Leavenworth, but that’s just me. The Secret Service would have a much easier time integrating into a system run by MPs than civilian prison guards.
There's got to be a spare supply closet somewhere: use that. and make sure they don't use Epstein-brand video cameras.
"Don't deserve" is a completely different thing that "Won't get" which seems important to point out because your response is about the latter.
I copied portions of an article. I wasn't personally choosing deserve or get.
Then why did you choose those specific quotes as a response to my statement about not deserving?
Because the federal rules were in it. Deserving or undeserving has little to do with it then.
Is that something for a judge to take into consideration though, or for a warden?
They sit outside the cell, obviously.
Why would he need a secret service detail? He has prison guards.
So did Epstein and they didn't save him.
