"Based on the evidence that's been presented here today...I do find by clear and convincing evidence that there are no conditions of release...that can secure the safety of the community."
Judge remarks:
"He has been corrupted by or seduced by dangerous and violent ideology that considers the United States to be in a state of civil war, that considers every Democrat to be worthy of execution, that considers every member of the government part of a Deep State."
"He has been corrupted by or seduced by dangerous and violent ideology that considers the United States to be in a state of civil war, that considers every Democrat to be worthy of execution, that considers every member of the government part of a Deep State."
Concerning his work as an attorney: "Sometime over the past 30 years...something has changed."
"The biggest issue: you were in the Capitol...We've seen the video. You bragged about it. You passed a sacred sacred line. That was an act of extreme violence."
"The biggest issue: you were in the Capitol...We've seen the video. You bragged about it. You passed a sacred sacred line. That was an act of extreme violence."
Judge continues: "When you and your friends went in there and tore the place to shreds, killed five people, including a police officer, you showed that there was nothing would hold you back except force..."
"That's why we had 25,000 National Guard members on the Capitol" yesterday. Says it's a shame, disgrace and embarrassment for the the country.
"And if you don't respect the Capitol Police, if you don't respect the Capitol Building of the United States, there's no reason to believe you would respect anything I would tell you to do." Judge says he would fear for the life of a probation officer sent to check up on Calhoun.
Again remarks upon the defendant's "Deep State" beliefs. Considers them an indication that Calhoun would likely resort to violence against any government agent.
The defense objects.
The judge concludes: "Again, because of the corrupting and dangerous ideology that has poisoned this man's mind, I wouldn't trust him to do anything I told him to do. He probably considers me scum who deserves a headshot. So, no, I'm not gonna release him."
