The former Massachusetts Air National Guardsman accused of stealing and disseminating classified Pentagon records online is asking a federal judge to set him free and reverse a previous ruling that he remain in pretrial detention. The filing draws a direct comparison to former President Donald Trump, who remains free pending trial for his alleged mishandling of classified documents.
Attorneys for Jack Teixeira on Monday appealed the May detention order imposed by Magistrate Judge David H. Hennessy, asking the Massachusetts Federal District Court judge to reconsider Teixeira’s release, arguing the defendant is not a flight risk, poses no risk of obstruction of justice and can be released under certain conditions.

So better put Trump behind bars in order not to set bad precedents.
I think we’re a little late for that.
Well, the sooner get gets behind bars, the better.
On the other hand, let him and DeSantis have a bloody, piggy-bank draining battle, and then incarcerate him.
Two wrongs don’t make a right.
Yes, but equal crimes deserve equal treatment. If it’s not ok for Teixeira to be released, then Trump, under indictment for similar crimes, should face the same pretrial detention.
Trump has never been handled by anything other than the kiddiest of gloves by the criminal justice system.
No no, you don’t get it. Trump is rich, so it’s okay

There is a case made, but I’d counter with Trump is under the watch of the DOJ 24/7 so he can’t run.
No, but Three Lefts do!
Wakka Wakka WakkaBut Trump was treated so unfairly remember? /s
But three lefts do
is this the World of Tanks guy or someone else?
Unless there is another guardsman out there spilling secrets, it should be the same guy
Bold move Cotton, let’s see how it works out for him.
