Attorney Joseph McBride, who represents Capitol protester Richard Barnett, was in the news earlier this week after an interview on CNN went off the rails when he was mocked by anchor John Avlon for alleging that protesters arrested for their roles in the January 6 protest were being “tortured.”
His assessment was a reference to months of solitary confinement, as many of those arrested are being denied bail. But he also said they were “being beaten, they’re being starved, they’re denied medical care, they’re being denied the right to worship, they’re being cut off from their attorneys.”

They need to file a lawsuit. Prisoners do it all the time. They haven't even been convicted of anything. It is outrageous, if true.

I see a whole lot of Attorneys making a whole lot of money when these guys get out of those Jail Cells. I hope they sue the Pants off of those in charge AND those giving the orders to keep their "Prisoners" this long without a hearing!

There should be lawyers lined up around the block trying to help these people. Where are the senators and congressmen and governors etc. who need to make this situation front and center Every. Single. Day. This is disgusting and needs to end now! FREE THIS ADMINISTRATION'S POLITICAL PRISONERS NOW!

Filing a lawsuit in DC? I doubt a lawyer can be found to bother. The DC circuit court was packed by the Democrats to add more Democrats, so forget about the appeals. The only way to begin addressing this is for the Republican Party to speak up, and speak up very loud. That won't be coming from Mitch McConnell or McCarthy. Trump is all we have got.

So the DC Jail is a lot like Lubyanka prison in the basement of the KGB building.
Dems wiping their butts with the Constitution.

Abu Ghraib much?
The totalitarians should pay a major price for this. Instead, expect social media and our toxic culture to cancel anyone bringing it up.

There needs to be an extensive legal team willing to represent any January 6 prisoners that knows how to contend with Washington. My impression is that the families of the prisoners are hiring attorneys, and those attorneys may not necessarily know how to best handle this. These people are being hidden away and forgotten, and the last thing Washington wants is attention. These people need serious heavyweight representation.

What do you expect?
We had a Civil War and we lost. The GOP didn’t fight and we lost. Losers don’t dictate the terms and we shouldn’t be crying. They fight and we watch Fox News and primary people. Anyone who went to DC o the 6th was a moron and that includes Trump. It was a set up from day one and Stevie Wonder could have seen it for what it was. Trump and others walked into a trap and now they are paying the price. Again. This is the consequences of War and we lost.

Piglosi caused this and has her hands all over this, plus she's loaded. Sue the living crap out of her, and take her ice cream as well.

Kinda ironic... During the Bush years, the democrats decried the 'black sites' in foreign countries where the worst of the captured terrorists were sent to try to extract life saving information from them.
In the biden years, they run their own 'black site' in the District of Columbia to punish America Loving Patriots.

If I ever get a chance to vote for one o these people for Congress I am going to do it. They are learning a lot of things about prisons, about the law, about entrapment, which I would like my legislator to know. And I am really touched how much they love the US. You know they could have got out by now if they had told their inquisitors that "Tiffany told them to do it." I feel challenged by how much they are suffering. that I should do more myself.

They should... They should... They should...
Nothing the people can do, right? Nothing. It's all on them. Even their attorneys are "powerless". Amazing. And one wonders why patriotism and conservatism is in retreat. At least one could wear a "Free Richard Barnett" t-shirt.
