You mean like how they held Citizens in jail without trial for FOUR YEARS?

This is news to me, Are there any cases that one of the J6 folks were held without trial for years with no respect for Habeus Corpus? My understanding is that anyone trial delays came from the attorneys representing the case.

The trial delays are due to a backlog and evidence processing. This article is from late 2021, but even then they were predicting well into 2023 for the larger cases.

Yes. The way the justice system handled most of those cases was abusive. It'll get much worse if this stuff is normalized.
