“Federal authorities have arrested Daniel Joseph Rodriguez, the 38-year-old Donald Trump fanatic” who assaulted a police officer with a stun gun during the January 6, 2021 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, Huffington Post reported on Wednesday, March 31, 2021. Read story here.
“Rodriguez was part of the mob that swarmed D.C. Metropolitan Police Officer Mike Fanone, who pleaded for his life and suffered a mild heart attack. Rodriguez can be seen on video jabbing a small black device into Fanone’s neck — causing the officer to drop to the ground — before breaching the Capitol and trying to smash out a window,” Huffington Post said, adding, “Fanone’s story went viral in the weeks following the insurrection. In media interviews, the father of four described being shocked with a stun gun and surrounded by rioters chanting, ‘Kill him with his own gun!'”
If Rodriguez (photo, above left) is convicted, should he get more, the same, or less prison time than the Texas woman who cast a provisional ballot which wasn’t counted? What do you think?
O More time
O Same time
O Less time
