DOJ Seeks Lifetime Sentence for Jan. 6 Convict Pardoned By Trump

The Tennessee man was convicted of conspiring to murder FBI agents and other officials. He claims his pardon for his crimes on Jan. 6, 2021, should also apply to that conviction.

This remorseless filth, upon being pardoned by Trump, immediately began making preparations to murder the FBI agents who had investigated him. He was caught, tried and convicted, but tried to argue that Trump's pardon of his actions on 1/6 also included his murder plot afterward. I am glad the DOJ did not buy this and is throwing the book at this human garbage. Hopefully this stays under Donald's radar; he wouldn't take too well the news of the DOJ recommending life imprisonment to a loyal MAGA.

“Kelley created a list of specific people he intended to assassinate, including agents, officers, and employees of the FBI, Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, Tennessee Highway Patrol, Maryville Police Department, Blount County Sheriff’s Office, and Clinton Police Department,” the memorandum read. “To effectuate his plan, Kelley sought the assistance of others to identify his victims’ pattern of life and to murder them at their offices, homes, and in public places.”

Part of his alleged plan was to attack his local FBI office in Knoxville by using “improvised explosive devices attached to vehicles and drones.”

“Kelley is remorseless and has shown neither a capacity nor desire to rehabilitate,” prosecutors wrote. “On the contrary, Kelley not only believes the actions for which he was convicted were justified but that his duty as a self-styled ‘patriot’ compelled him to target East Tennessee law enforcement for assassination.”

Kelley’s interactions with the press suggest he does not regret his actions at the U.S. Capitol.

“I don’t feel bad for what I did,” he told 10 News in April. “I was fighting for my country that day. I mean, the election was obviously rigged. If someone doesn’t believe that it’s rigged, then they either need to get informed or pull their head out of the sand.”
