Nothing says Domestic Terrorist like threatening to hang the Speaker of the House & Senate Majority Leader - RoR’d too
“We're going through that barricade. F*ck you people, this is our house." Defendant STEVEN C. BILLINGSLEY
to be clear the statements in the Affidavit are not mine - the affiant recites what he/she personally reviewed on BILLINGSLEY‘s now shuttered Facebook accounts —there is any other Facebook "stephen.billingsley.16" as the affidavit disclosed Facebook confirmed the "stephen.billingsley.16" was closed on March 28, 2021. Hence why I’m purposely not linking to the that Facebook account

Defendant STEVEN C. BILLINGSLEY…
…January 8-9, 2021, the FBI received information from an individual who knows STEVEN C. BILLINGSLEY ("BILLINGSLEY") that BILLINGSLEY attended the Capitol riot with a small group of friends and live-streamed videos of himself on the Capitol grounds on January 6, 2021, to his Facebook account at www.facebook.com/stephen.billingsley.16.
The videos, which I reviewed, depicted BILLINGSLEY's first-person perspective and narration and appeared to show him breach a barricade on the Capitol grounds and engage in a variety of conduct there.
The tipster indicated that BILLINGSLEY maintained two Facebook accounts - one in which BILLINGSLEY spelled his name "Steven" and the other in which he spelled his name "Stephen" - and that sometime after January 6, 2021, BILLINGSLEY took down the latter account, where the videos of BILLINGSELY at the Capitol were posted.
..the FBI determined that BILLINGSLEY is associated with at least two Facebook accounts: one with vanity name "steven.billingsley.75" and one with vanity name "stephen.billingsley.16." Both accounts are linked to a separate phone number that is registered in the name of an individual who shares or shared BILLINGSLEY's known current home address. Both accounts are also linked to a bank account in BILLINGSLEY's own name. The Facebook records confirmed that the account with vanity name "stephen.billingsley.16" was closed on March 28, 2021.
"Who cares about them cops? We overpower them."
In one video, as BILLINGSLEY neared the Capitol, he saw an individual climbing scaffolding and shouted, "Yeah, baby - storm the Capitol! That's where the thieves are!"
…he shouted in the direction of police officers standing guard there, "We're going through that barricade. Fuck you people, this is our house." He continued shouting at the officers, "We're going through. We can do it the nice way or the hard way .... You guys turned on us." As BILLINGSLEY talked with others who had gathered near the canopy, he stated, "Who cares about them cops? We overpower them." He screamed at the cops, "We're gonna walk right in there. Go get your little bicycles." He told another person, "If they contest one state, we're tearing this motherfucker down."
You dipshit Domestic Terrorist - you recorded yourself and you then used Facebook live to broadcast your acts of Domestic Terrorism - where you stated that you wanted to assassinate two current members of Congress…also 3Million? Hardly I believe the last estimate was just under 10K
BILLINGSLEY responds, "No, that means we're gonna have 3 million bomb ya'll." The officer then commands BILLINGSLEY to move down from the grassy area. BILLINGSLEY begins to move, and other bangs go off in the distance. BILLINGSLEY states, "That doesn't scare us," and says to other officers, "We're coming. It don't matter what you got; we're gonna get it."
BILLINGSLEY shouted at them, "You're not gonna stop 3 million." He told one officer, "We love you, man. This is war." He said to other officers, "We get numbers, you're in trouble." After walking over additional barricades strewn on the plaza ground, he yelled, "This is our house." He exhorted others in the plaza, "They can't stop us in numbers, remember that. This is war."
Threatening to “hang” Speaker Pelosi and the Senate Majority Leader..
he again stated, "We're gonna tear this motherfucker down." He repeatedly screamed, "Push!," at other rioters who were well in front of him and confronting a line of police officers, and banged on a black Suburban vehicle, which he called a "Secret Service vehicle."BILLINGSLEY stated, "We're not done. This is just a warning to them."
No, we do want to hurt Pelosi. I do…I would hang her from… that tree over there? We'd put a rope and hang her. We hang her and Schumer over there, they'll all go, 'Oh, shit.'"
He and others discussed seeing Members of Congress looking out from the Capitol's windows. One person remarked, "We don't want to hurt 'em." BILLINGSLEY responded, "No, we do want to hurt Pelosi. I do. Yeah, I would hang her from that big- you see that tree over there? We'd put a rope and hang her. We hang her and Schumer over there, they'll all go, 'Oh, shit.'"
FBI conducted an initial and subsequent interviews with the tipster, during which the FBI showed the tipster four photos. The first photo was BILLINGSLEY's Ohio state-issued driver's- license photo, which the tipster identified as BILLINGSLEY with 100% certainty.
The photo, below, derived from BILLINGSLEY's Facebook page, was a photo the FBI showed the tipster during the initial interview in which the tipster misidentified an individual wearing a red hoodie and pushing against a barricade…
And YES this is just rich - we are going to end up paying for this Domestic Terrorist Defense because he’s broke -see NDWV-ECF -Docket Report and notice how the USAO-DC of USAO-WDWV didn’t file a Pretrial Detention Motion - yes another Domestic Terrorist released with minimal conditions —and you wonder why I’m slightly unrelenting in my criticism?
And NOPE Defendant STEVEN C. BILLINGSLEY is (at the time of publication) not included in the USAO-DC Capitol Violence Database, I just happened to stumble upon his case. At least you now have access to several of his Court filings - sheesh I was really looking forward to taking a break from the Jan6th Domestic Terrorism cases, but nope here I am rage typing away on my keyboard…
He should not be set free, ever.
I wonder why the acting AG hasn't been replaced.
Judge Michael appears to not see the gravity here. What the actual hell does one have to do to be locked up? 1/6 terrorists walking freely! We're letting the 09/18 folks know when they come they have no consequences for words/actions.
