Oath Keepers 4th superseding indictment and four additional defendants added (one remains redacted) -updated

Seriously if you want to be overly dramatic because you just read the superseding indictment and the word “spy” was used two times - why didn’t you read SR2 or SR3 because it was previously disclosed

I was really going to take the holiday weekend off. Yesterday I spent some time at Arlington National visiting my grandfather’s grave. With my immediate family scattered to all corners of our Country, I remain the only one in the DMV (DC MD VA) —so I’m left with the privilege of visiting his grave on Memorial Day, it’s become part of my family’s tradition. Each year I stay and read him a chapter of; Journey to the End of the Night, Molloy, Malone Dies, The Unnamable, The Complete Essays, or The Book of Disquiet - all of which were on his nightstand when he passed away. The latter - he was reading the day he died and sometimes I swear I can feel his presence as I read it to him. But it’s also my way of honoring a man who served our Country in both Operation Beleaguer, Korean War and several other deployments in active theaters.

Oath Keepers - Fourth Superseding Indicted - four NEW Defendants added.

The Caldwell-Oath Keepers fourth superseding indictment remained under seal until late yesterday but there’s also something kind of interesting and arguably implied. Four new defendants were added but one defendant identity remains redacted (for now)

May 27, 2021 the Government appears to have unsealed the Fourth Superseding Indictment for the limited purposes of three Defendants initial appearance(s) -which were conducted in the “arresting district” because the original-charging district remains the District of Columbia.
Wanna see how I know this?

And it’s not lost on me that some overlooked the very important point, additional defendants were added. Although it’s amusing watching some pretend they are now the foremost legal “expert” -Yet you didn’t even know what PACER was nor did you have a PACER account. I spent hours on the phone tutoring that jurisprudence neophyte - who didn’t know what 5K1, rule 35 or mj v sw v cr v bc or the basic Federal Criminal Rules of Procedure… Incidentally said person also continues to create misleading and disinformation threads “about sealed indictments or foreign assistance” -there are hundreds of reasons for a sealed case or filing the fact you continue to mislead your followers -you’re kind of like the Jonestown Cult leader. Frankly it’s sad but [redacted] is no longer my problem.

Now let’s focus on what really matters. It’s the little things that add up, if you choose to pay attention. Funny how most just sailed right pass the newly added defendants, no?

Brief background:

• April 22, 2021: Combat Art Training, Oath Keepers Training, Meggs GoFundMe campaign, FL SCC Articles of Incorp I. HAVE. QUESTIONS. A lot of questions

• April 14, 2021: Connie and Kelly Meggs case update -Second Notice of Discovery to all Defendant

• April 13, 2021 - KENNETH “I perjured myself” HARRELSON - case update and it’s a doozy -GOVERNMENT’S OPPOSITION TO DEFENDANT’S MOTION FOR RECONSIDERATION OF CONDITIONS OF RELEASE - document no 152

• April 6, 2021 - USA v Caldwell “yes your honor some of the Defendants have approached about plea offers” -updated Government asking for a 60-day extension-exclusion regarding discovery and complex case designation - below is a brief transcript of today’s hearing.

• Nearly 140 law enforcement officers who sustained injuries, some permanently. You can read more about the US Capitol Police Lawsuit, found here or here

• I make zero appearance for referring to Mitch as a craven chicken-shit coward, found here where he asked Senate Republicans “as a personal favor to him to vote no on the Jan6th commission”

• you can also read my previous series of Oath Keepers and Give-Send-Go

Because of the 60 day extension- the docket kind of went fallow - until the May 26 thru May 30 when four new Defendants were added and the Government unsealed the fourth superseder…

👇🏻and here we are👇🏻

Newly Added Defendant(s) -now 16 defendants

Note that one defendant identity is still redacted and I have no clue who Defendant 13 is. I could make an educated guess but that’s not really my style and it would disrespect the hard working FBI agents and prosecutors. We will all know who Defendant 13 is, sooner or later. So it’s best to be patient, which ironically isn’t my strong suit.

Defendant Joseph Hackett

As you can see - I just ran a docket report and there’s literally nothing beyond the May 28, 2021 - Arrest pursuant to Rule 5(c)(2) of Joseph Hackett from the District of Columbia.

The Fourth Superseding Indictment -Oath Keepers

Because the four new Defendants - Page 2 of the SR4, arguendo, that Defendant 13 is similarly charged as Defendants Hackett, Doland and Isaacs - it makes to help you refresh your memory of Counts 1-6:

Count One: Conspiracy—18 U.S.C. § 371;

From at least as early as November 3, 2020, through January 6, 2021, in the District of Columbia and elsewhere, the defendants…

DOJ-OPA 4th Superseding Indictment Page 7 Count One

…did knowingly combine, conspire, confederate, and agree with each other and others known and unknown, to commit an offense against the United States, namely, to corruptly obstruct, influence, and impede an official proceeding, that is, the Certification of the Electoral College vote, in violation of Title 18, United States Code, Section 1512(c)(2).

The Government further elucidates the Conspiracy—specifically the manner and means. See what I red lined? That’s important because for some QANON-House-and-Senate Members to falsely say there “were no weapons” and that “January 6th was nothing more than peaceful tourist” strains credulity.
And its disrespectful to the nearly 140 law enforcement officers who sustained injuries, some permanently.

SR4 -Page 8 - NEW FACTS - Manner and Means

Now while some are choosing to focus on the various encrypted messages (which were nearly all disclosed in the original indictment - but further expounded in the first thru third superseding indictment - I’m focused on the NEW information within the fourth superseder - specifically the fire arms.

For Example; these are NEW FACTS surrounding the Oath Keepers and Firearms -also it’s important to draw your attention to paragraph 60.

Why?

Well do you see what I red lined? That states PERSON NINETEEN- thus far only sixteen have been indicted. So that tells me that we should all BOLO for additional defendants.

SR4 - concerning firearms for Jan 6th DC-OP Oath Keepers

🌶 sidebar - when reading the 4th superseding indictment - note the footnotes: Based on the investigation, “RP” appears to refer to “rally point.” Based on the investigation, “OK” appears to refer to “Oath Keepers.”

Count Two: 18 U.S.C. §§ 1512(c)(2), 2—Obstruction of an Official Proceeding and Aiding and Abetting…

…attempted to, and did, corruptly obstruct, influence, and impede an official proceeding, that is, the Certification of the Electoral College vote, and did aid and abet others known and unknown to do the same…

Count 2 of 4th superseding Indictment

Count Three: 18 U.S.C. §§ 1361, 2—Destruction of Government Property and Aiding and Abetting - I believe at last count the Architect of the Capitol estimated damage to the building was in excess of $1,300,000.00 so you’ll pardon my lack of sympathy for these Defendants. They attacked the very building that’s known around the world as the Building of Democracy. And yes all defendants have the presumption of innocence but if I jury finds the defendants guilty I’d like the entire Law Library of Congress thrown at each of the Defendants.

Count Four: 18 U.S.C. § 1752(a)(1)—Restricted Building or Grounds

🌶side-note I’ll keep pointing this out because it really bothers me that most overlooked that (then) Vice-President-Elect Harris was also at the Capitol on January 6, 2021. Because Trump MAGA-QANON supporters were chanting “hang Mike Pence” what do you think they would have done if they managed to locate (then) Vice-President Elect Harris.

I genuinely shudder to think what they would have done to her. Furthermore any opportunity I have to help my readers/followers understand the totality of the deadly Jan6th insurrection, I’d keep reminding you how perilously close we came to a mass casualty event.

….did knowingly enter and remain in a restricted building and grounds, that is, any posted, cordoned￾off, or otherwise restricted area within the United States Capitol and its grounds, where the Vice President and Vice President-elect were temporarily visiting, without lawful authority to do so.

Yet the Senate Republican basically slapped the US Capitol Police (USCP) and Metro Police Dept (MPD) in their faces by voting against the Commission. At some point there’s going to be a lot of USCP & MPD resignations. Morale is already down and these officers put their actual actually bodies between lawmakers and the violent mob. They deserve better than Mitch McConnell, Senate Republicans and Donald Trump.

COUNT FIVE: 18 U.S.C. §§ 231(a)(3), 2—Civil Disorder and Aiding and Abetting - let me know if you understand why I red lined and highlighted what I did because this is more important then you know…

…committed and attempted to commit an act to obstruct, impede, and interfere with a law enforcement officer, that is, U.S. Capitol Police Officer M.C., while Officer M.C. was lawfully engaged in the lawful performance of his official duties incident to and during the commission of a civil disorder, and the civil disorder obstructed, delayed, and adversely affected the conduct and performance of a federally protected function.

SR 4 - Count Five -thus far only Isaacs Chaged

Okay I’ll tell you why Count Five matters - only William Isaacs is charged but it’s also important to remember that other defendants have been charged whereas others have not. Highlighted and redlined copy of the Fourth Superseding Indictment can be found on my public drive or REDACTED FOURTH SUPERSEDING INDICTMENT as to ALL DEFENDANTS open source filing via CourtListener Doc 210 or via DDC-ECF https://ecf.dcd.uscourts.gov/doc1/04508555520

…again it’s entirely up to you - who you want to listen to. I’m not in the habit of overly dramatic threads because “spy” was mentioned in the indictment.

-Duh it was previously disclosed in the 2nd and 3rd superseder but what wasn’t disclosed until the 4th superseder - 4 NEW Defendants and the firearms discussions.

So now you should be factually caught up and now I’m going to turn my attention to the Weber Grill and reminiscing on my family’s collective 90+ years of service to our Country via multiple deployments to wars. Because that’s what Patriotism means to me. Honoring those who have fallen in service to our Country. Go Army!

Updated - Includes May 27th filing by USA;

What is kind of -noteworthy- is on May 27, 2021 the Government filed:

Counsel for Defendants Caldwell, Connie Meggs, and James… DDC-ECF https://ecf.dcd.uscourts.gov/doc1/04508551969 (or via my public drive) which made a few new disclosures. For Example (if you had paid attention to the - April 6, 2021-article - USA v Caldwell “yes your honor some of the Defendants have approached about plea offers” -updated Government asking for a 60-day extension-exclusion regarding discovery and complex case designation - below is a brief transcript of today’s hearing.)

You’ll note that some of the defense attorneys disclosed to the Court that “some of the Defendants have approached about plea offers” - again I don’t know why so many overlooked that fact because I sat in on the hearing and listened to it in real time…and may have said with my inside voice

“did I just hear that correctly? Did defense counsel (for Mr & Mrs Meggs) just disclose to the Court and presumably the other defendants that her client is looking to cut a deal and run?”

Because I had to read the transcript of the April hearing to verify that the Government was put on the spot and sheepishly told the Court -

“well that might be way above my pay grade and the powers to be at main justice would have to approve and I’m not in the position to inform the Court what if any decision has been made, concerning any potential plea agreements”

Which means the May 27, 2021 MOTION to Continue and to Exclude Time Under the Speedy Trial Act by USA - would be the second 60 day extension and you’ll note that the Government disclosed the following;

As of the time of filing, Counsel for Defendants Caldwell, Connie Meggs, and James…consented to the filing of this motion. Counsel for the other defendants had not had an opportunity to respond to the government’s proposal as of the time of filing.

But wait - there’s more, like so much more: the discovery production has occurred on a semi-rolling basis but this sentence seems - kind of important: “…government has provided over a terabyte of data in discovery materials….” because that’s a lot of data/documents etc - also in the itemized list of production the Government made the following disclosures and I’ve red lined the important bits - especially the number of search warrants but equally important the number of cell phones and full extraction…

Information about or copies of evidence seized pursuant to most of the roughly 50 search warrants that had been executed as of the time of the April 6 status hearing, to include the full extractions from the cellular telephones seized from all 12 defendants (approximately 20 phones in total), which are being provided to the defense this week…

USA v Caldwell May 27th Motion for 60 day continuance

A very close second is this sentence in the Government’s Motion:

reread what I’ve highlighted and red-lined - this means that in the April Status Conference Hearing the Defense Council may have prematurely disclosed that she had already contacted the Government— my recollection is the USAO was kind of cagey at the response or inadvertent disclosure by defense counsel (who is a female and I think currently representing Mr & Mrs Meggs but neither the Government or Court have docketed a Curcio Hearing¹ (which is an oral examination of both defendants and counsel who wants to represent both defendants)

The investigation of this matter is ongoing, and the government continues to gather discoverable materials, which it will continue to provide to the defense on a rolling basis….The government also only recently began reaching out to defendants’ counsel about possible resolutions of these matters short of trial. These discussions are ongoing.

I suppose this is why some of my readers/followers read what I publish because I have a tendency of pointing out what’s important and what’s not. Also as a reminder I do have a public share folder Caldwell Watkins et al where I’ve continued to update with filings …
