    I would too, but that would imply we trust our judicial system. Given their wrongful conviction rate, I guarantee there’s at least a few falsely accused in there.

      It was one of the most well documented crimes of all time. Documented by the criminals mind you, We have multiple angles and Facebook/Instagram/Twitter/Truth Social posts from the people commiting the crimes. Not to mention all the cameras inside the Capitol. You’d have to be an idiot to not take a plea deal.
