It's a much nicer photo than former Majority Whip Tom Delay's infamous mug shoot when he was booked.
She knows Mike MyPillow will spare no expense to get her sprung.
These are all the actions of an extremely entitled person. I am hoping the shitstorm she is going to go through cures her of that.
It's not clear to me why this clearly-inebriated violent thug who refused to comply didn't end up on the ground with a knee on her neck.
I'm sure there's a reason, but I just can't seem to put my white on it.
Many many people have been charged with felonies for much less…
I’m a trifle confused — every motions hearing I’ve sat through was boring, routine, and a great deal of effort to publicly check off every required step and make certain the person accused understood what was happening. I cannot fathom any reason why an independent recording of the hearing would be needed.
Tina Peters (and others) apparently made an effort to evade a warrant. So much for “back the Blue.” After that fruitless effort, an outburst of temper and a kick aimed at an officer, she was allowed to go home and then return for booking. She changed clothes and has a hairdo that (to my inexperienced eye) looks newly done. Is that the usual course of events for those charged with obstruction in Mesa County? And does the photographer for the police have a side job doing portraits?
I wonder if the public defenders and other defense lawyers are going to bookmark this and compare treatment of Ms. Peters to whatever happened to their client on a similar charge.
Perhaps she tried to record it because she didn’t want to pay the abhorrent cost of a transcript.
As for getting every courtesy to show up for booking all cleaned up, that’s common for white collar (and white) suspects all over Colorado.
"…that’s common for white collar (and white) suspects all over Colorado."
That's not just in Colorado.
BTW, I figured she needed to record the hearing because her tin foil hat was interfering with the reception by the radio receiver in her cranial cavity. But I speculate…
There was a mention in a least one article of consideration of a charge of attempting to influence a public servant. That coupled with a DA who likely aspires to higher office tells me that someone was hoping to have video of Rubinstein prosecuting true believer Knisley to influence the direction of the case.
Not following you, Pedalman. It wouldn’t be the first time, but I don’t get how such a video would provide influence to anybody besides at MAGAt.
If the holder of the video wanted to threaten the political future of a term-limited DA, then the idea might be to try to pressure the DA to back off the prosecution of Knisley or others, or the video gets released to convince GOP voters to withhold support for future political aspirations of the DA.
Makes sense.
