Would you believe it has been almost two years since a young man named Nicholas Roske was arrested for allegedly plotting to assassinate U.S. Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh?
The media doesn’t have any interest in the story and, apparently, neither does Biden’s Justice Department.
Alec Schemmel writes at the Washington Free Beacon:
Biden DOJ Slow-Walks ‘Slam Dunk’ Case Against Man Who Allegedly Tried To Kill Justice Kavanaugh, Baffling ExpertsPresident Joe Biden’s Department of Justice is dragging its feet in prosecuting Nicholas Roske, the man accused of trying to assassinate Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, leaving legal experts perplexed about the slow-moving pace of the case…After arriving by taxi at Kavanaugh’s house, Roske called the police on himself and was eventually found with a suitcase full of guns, ammo, zip ties, and other tools to carry out the attack. However, the case—which one legal expert who spoke to the Washington Free Beacon called a “slam dunk” for federal prosecutors—has seen almost a dozen continuances since Roske last appeared in court in October 2022, and still no plea has been reached or trial date set.”It’s noteworthy that after nearly two years, there is still no trial date or plea agreement in this case,” Gerard Filitti, senior counsel at The Lawfare Project, told the Free Beacon. “While pretrial motions would resolve questions about the admissibility of some of the evidence, including statements made by Roske, there is no underlying procedural reason why it would take this long to get to trial.”Prosecutors’ willingness to slow-walk the case comes amid an ongoing pressure campaign from progressives seeking to delegitimize the Supreme Court.
It’s important to remember, this man allegedly wanted to kill more than just one SCOTUS judge:
Suspect in Attempted Murder of Justice Kavanaugh Reportedly Wanted to Kill Three SCOTUS JudgesAccording to newly released documents, the suspect arrested for attempting to murder Justice Brett Kavanaugh in June reportedly aspired to commit more crimes.Nicholas John Roske allegedly wanted to kill two more justices in addition to Kavanaugh to change the court for “decades to come.”It’s shocking that this story somehow managed to become worse.
It’s also worth noting that even after this news, the left didn’t skip a beat. They went right on attacking Kavanaugh:
Leftists Still Targeting Justice Kavanaugh Even After Assassination Attempt: Protesters Force Him To Exit Out Back Door Of DC RestaurantFor some reason that I really can’t fathom, the progressive left is escalating its hounding of conservative Supreme Court Justices. If they’re trying to turn off normal Americans, they’re doing a great job. If they’re trying to intimidate or coerce SCOTUS, they are failing miserably. But radicals gotta radical.Justice Brett Kavanaugh already was the target of an attempted assassination. But the hounding and targeting of him continue.Politico reports that Justice Kavanaugh was escorted by his security team out the back door of a DC restaurant because leftists were “protesting” outside.
So why is this case taking so long?
I guess we know why the liberal media isn’t asking any questions.
