I took a few minutes from my j-o-b to listen to the court proceedings via the link you provided Filey, it was really interesting,
have never done that before in such a high profile case (Scott Peterson and Mark Geragos circus years ago doesn't count right ?) To hear the ever so polite and perhaps even contrite Mr. Young respectfully respond to the judge's questions was an astounding about face for a former storm the capital kinda guy. Great job FBI and DOJ ! Keep rounding 'em up and herding them to justice ! Send more court hearing links as time allows please, always looking for job distractions. 😏
Thank you, Filey for the thorough breakdown. I literally watch for MacFarlane News drops on the twitter and then immediately refresh your substack feed. Appreciate you.
Always happy to help - I was providing quick real time updates as the hearing was ongoing - it is very interesting the hearing started off with a sealed discussion re Govt & Defendant - and that’s why I linked to the April 2021 Jon Schaffer plea agreement —I would suspect that Defendant Young might have concerns for his safety and that of his family - hence rereading the Schaffer plea agreement might be a worthwhile endeavor 🤗
Parties agree to a status conference in 60 days - hearing -ended
now where are the damn documents …
Statement of Offense and elements
Count One - Conspiracy elements - agreed to offense and committed said offense
Count Two - obstructed & acted corruptly
See paragraph 16 (once the plea deal and statement of offense are uploaded - I’ll post it here)
-conditions of release -government not asking for any change
Oh this is all good news!! This is how they get the money men and the elected officials who pushed this right?
