6. Someone can be found to confess any crime.

It happens all the time. They do it sometimes for the attention, something promised, or occasionally because of a mental disorder.

The latest example is the whacko who confessed to Kirk’s shooting in Utah initially.

Since there’s a confession, there will be no trial. No evidence presented. No jury of peers. No due diligence. No investigation as that’s up to the prosecution.

Due to Trump’s wide ranging EO blanket pardon. The confessor will probably walk after his fifteen minutes are up.

Personally, I think this whole goat rodeo is a means for Patel’s keystone FBI to claw at having an ounce of credibility in law enforcement and investigation.

The question remains, is this actually the January sixth pipe bomber. It’s looking like we will never know.
