May 17, 2021

Background;

Gosh it’s almost like I regret nothing in this August 2020 archived thread. And I mean nothing. Imagine that -how dare someone did a lot of research and then a bunch of it was lifted by QAnon-for-the-Left conspiracy theorist. Who tweets like they are either drunk or abusing his ADD RXs & Xanax and clearly do not have a job beyond tweeting. These dolts spend hours trying to weave hilariously insane and illogical threads of raging malarkey.

Whereas some of us put our heads down and do the heavy lift of… actually researching and then providing actual documents to support the assertions

Or we simply dissect public documents and point to relevant sections that would be “important” ….

SENTENCING MEMORANDUM by Peter Rafael Dzibinski Debbins - which includes fifteen “character letters” - I glanced through them and didn’t find anything persuasive that would convince the Court to issue a final judgment “significant lower”

USA v Debbins Doc 47 Defendant Sentencing Memorandum

Okay so you wanted the Court to take pity on you - that you betrayed the US Army, betrayed your oath and betrayed your country… because you had “repressed and unresolved feelings”

Pray tell the sudden and new defense “Mr. Debbins’ mental pathology” would be sufficient to defend the espionage (over an extended period of time) the pivot to “I fear for the safety of my wife and four daughters” no being a traitor with narcissistic and sociopathic tendencies doesn’t get you a reduced sentence.

But when that didn’t work Defendant Debbins pulled the LGBTQ Card as the root cause of his mental health struggles. To be fair that’s kind of a convincing argument but certainly using it at the proverbial 11th hour - seems contrived and desperate…

“…Debbins was hiding a same-sex attraction (“SSA”) and tells the Court that “my life has been a veritable hell of concealing and brutally suppressing my true self, especially when I was younger….”

Doc # 47 link will take you to the filing and 15 exhibits https://ecf.vaed.uscourts.gov/doc1/189011235795 or you can pull down a highlighted and annotated copy from my public drive - also keep in mind that Debbins’ Memorandum is not “sworn” and it’s difficult to reconcile his new flying spaghetti strategy with previous “Statement of Facts” —this distinction becomes crystal clear in the Government’s Reply to Debbins

RESPONSE by USA

…as to Peter Rafael Dzibinski Debbins re 47 Sentencing Memorandum (ECF https://ecf.vaed.uscourts.gov/doc1/189011241608 or a highlighted copy can be pulled down from my public drive) —generally speaking if the Government’s opening salvo is;

Debbins has made numerous mitigating statements—in his letter to the Court and as part of the psychiatric assessment—that conflict with his admissions in the Statement of Facts and to the Federal Bureau of Investigation
DOJ Reply to Defendant’s Sentencing Memorandum
…has not accepted responsibility for his conduct beyond entering the guilty plea. In his letter to the Court, he casts himself as the victim, expresses remorse about participating in the interviews with the FBI rather than for the consequences of his conduct…

The October 2019 Failed Polygraph - the footnote is also pretty intriguing. Also nearly 55% of the Government’s reply is (heavily) redacted but you can infer it is about the (ongoing) National Security Threat Debbins imposed on our Country1.

Debbins suggests that he failed a “2019 FBI polygraph” because he “thought [his] wife and daughter were working for the GRU.” Def.’s Ltr. 3. As explained in the attached declaration, the FBI administered a polygraph to Debbins in October 2019 to determine whether he continued to conspire with Russian intelligence after 2011….
footnote -The government includes the information that Debbins failed this polygraph examination solely to provide the context of Debbins’s inconsistent statement in his letter, not as a factor to be considered in determining Debbins’s sentence.
the Government submits that Debbins’s submissions further support a sentence of seventeen years…

May 14, 2021 Minute Entry;

Peter Rafael Dzibinski Debbins as to Count 1. US appeared through Thomas Traxler, James Trump and David Aaron. Deft appeared w/counsel David Benowitz and Rammy Barbari.

The Court finds the guidelines to be properly assessed at a range of 188 to 235 months. Considering the factors under § 3553, the defendants age and length and depth of the conspiracy the Court finds that a sentence at the low end of the guideline range is appropriate.
Deft committed to the custody of the US Attorney General to serve a term of 188 months with a 5-year SR term and assessed $100. Cond. of SR: Abide by the Standard Conditions of Probation. The Court recommends that defendants be incarcerated as close to the Washington Metropolitan Area as possible.

Final Judgment -May 17, 2021 via ECF https://ecf.vaed.uscourts.gov/doc1/189111253370 or via my public drive

At any rate here’s a recent docket report that I uploaded to my public drive - I kind of expect that Debbins will (Foolishly) file an appeal but he fortified that right under the Terms and Conditions of his signed plea agreement2 3

I hope this was informative but I really do have to get to my bonbons - it’s not like they are going to eat themselves <snort> my bosses at Judicial Watch are completely unreasonable QAnon-AssHats <— I don’t work for JW mainly because they can’t afford me and I have standards - that rumor started because I was at a client site and snapped a picture of Marine 1 flying over the Capitol and tweeted it in 2019 —
