Some who face criminal charges for their actions during the riot hope that their gullibility might save them. Or at least engender some sympathy on them for their deeds.

Lawyers for at least three offenders indicted in connection with the violent seize told that they will blame election misinformation. Along with conspiracy theories, most of it pushed by then-president Donald Trump for misleading their clients. 

The Attorney says those who spread the misinformation would bear responsibility. Also, as will all those who participated in the actual breach of the Capitol. 

Defendant Anthony Antonio said that he wasn’t interested in politics. But pandemic boredom led him to conservative cable news and right-wing social media. He further said that they did a great job of convincing people. 

After Joe Biden’s victory in last year’s election, Trump and his allies repeatedly claimed that the race was stolen. Even though officials have reportedly debunked the claims by both parties. Including outside experts, courts in several states and his attorney general. 

In several cases, the baseless allegations on vote dumps, corrupt election officials, and ballot fraud were magnified on social media. Building Trump’s campaign to impair faith in the election that started long before November.

Moreover, the tide of misinformation continues to spread. 

Amy Berman’s decision

Amy Berman Jackson is the US District Judge. She wrote a decision denying the release of a man accused of threatening to kill Nancy Pelosi, the US House Speaker.

The defendants represent only a fraction of more than 400 people charged in the failed attempt to disrupt Biden’s victory certification.

But their arguments highlight the essential roles that the falsehood played in inspiring the riot. Especially as many top Republicans try to minimise the violence of the 6th of January. Moreover, a million others still believe that the election was stolen.

At least one of those charged plans to make a misinformation a crucial part of the defence. 

Albert Watkins, the St. Louis attorney, is representing Jacob Chansey. The so-called QAnon Shaman compared the process to brainwashing or falling into the holds of a cult. Recurred exposure to incendiary rhetoric, Watkins said, eventually conquered his client’s ability to perceive reality.
