Watkins, L.C.
From Feb 25: DDC Judge Amit P. Mehta
says, we'll get into the detention issues.... She has been
referred to as the commanding officer of the
militia in Ohio. She is a member of the Oath
Keepers. She has participated in planning
calls with the Oath Keepers and is in
communication with the leader of the Oath
Keepers
Judge Mehta: She was organizing groups
to come to the city on January 6. On the
nature and circumstances of the offense,
candidly, present a danger. This is
historic, an incursion on the Capitol. She
was an organizer.
Judge Mehta: There's this recipe for making
a destructive device. I think it's
indicative of things she may have thought
about. I do think this favors
detention. I refer to my comments in
the closed session.
Judge Mehta: Whatever the President
said, it doesn't justify bringing weapons
toward Washington DC. Are there lesser
conditions? I've thought about that - but I
can't get there.
Judge Mehta: I'm concerned about your
partner, being a member of the Ohio militia.
Today you've renounced the Oath Keepers. But
I have to balance that against your prior
conduct. You might re-affiliate. We cannot
monitor all of your communications,
encrypted apps
Judge Mehta: I am not prepared to release
Ms. Watkins. I grant the government's motion
to detain her. Next date is March 12.
We'll
have more on
this.
