A US judge on Monday apologized to the man accused of attempting to assassinate Donald Trump for the “legally deficient” treatment he has faced in a Washington DC, jail, including being placed on suicide watch, separated from other inmates and denied a Bible.
The US magistrate judge Zia Faruqui said he was disturbed by the conditions for Cole Allen, who allegedly fired a shotgun during a foiled attack on Trump and senior officials in his administration at a 25 April press gala. The judge said the conditions were inappropriate for a person with no criminal history.
“Whatever you’ve been through, I apologize,” Faruqui said during a court hearing.


If the SS had blanks, well that’d just be fucking insane, like, case closed they knew this was gonna happen.
Now, a shotgun blast hitting a wall, … depends on the kind of wall, the kind of pellets, the range, the choke, etc… but generally yeah, at those point blank ranges in that hallway?
It should be really easy to tell the difference between the impact of a shotgun vs a pistol.
Like yeah I can see them not finding some of the individual shot, in a single shotgun round… could possibly get just bounced around and then kicked around in the scuffle/shuffle that ensued.
… But the impact site itself?
Should be pretty obvious, to anyone whose ever seen different kinds of impact patterns from different rounds/catridges/etc.
Yeah, there should be 9mm slugs/fragments in the walls, or at least near them, where the missed shots at the assailaint went.
Its a fuckin hallway. Contained environment. Multiple hi rez camera angles on the whole thing.
The only complicating factor is the number of people moving around, but you have most of that on camera.
