WASHINGTON — The campaign of independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is out with a fundraising email referring to Jan. 6 defendants as 'activists' who have been 'stripped of their Constitutional liberties,' echoing former President Donald Trump's rhetoric about the 2021 riot at the U.S. Capitol.
One is charged with conspiring to kill the FBI employees who worked on his case, a plot that allegedly unfolded after his initial pretrial release. Most of the 29 Jan. 6 defendants currently being held in the D.C. jail have been convicted. Some are awaiting sentencing, others have been sentenced but have not yet been assigned to a federal prison to serve out their time.
