"It is three months until I'll be able to make a phone call or have visitors. Gee aren't I a lucky man"

Greg Burleson message from prison 3/3/2018

Greg Burleson was convicted in the first Bunkerville Standoff trial on eight charges with US District Judge Gloria Navarro banning the First and Second Amendments as a defense and the federal prosecutors withholding the evidence that pointed to federal law enforcement's aggressive posture towards the protesters.

Burleson was sentenced to 68 years in prison last July an is now at the Allenwood federal lockup in north central Pennsylvania not too far from Williamsport.

In his message Burleson noted the second anniversary of his arrest.

"Hello all, today is the second anniversary of my arrest on made up falsified charges. And an indictment that was given because the prosecutors fabricated and withheld information"

In the USSR, a “tenner” was the maximum sentence.
In the old west, bank robbers, and other such crooks would serve 3 years, 5 years, etc.

Our nation has gone down a despotic path to give 68 year sentences when it isn’t murder or child molesting.

Is he from PA ?

This seems like they want him to get NO visitors.

Like Eric Frein. Can’t get near him. Can’t ask him why he did it.

Hint: He says he has evidence that the cop he shot sexually assaulted his nephew. No one investigated the cop and he took matters into his own hands.

So he says, anyway. But it may as well be ancient, locked away history. No visitors.

for a federal sentence might as well be a life time sentence. Don’t they have to serve 75%?

This? Complete bullshit.

“Gregory Burleson, 53, of Phoenix, was found guilty in April of eight felony counts, including charges of threatening and assaulting federal officers, obstruction of justice, interstate travel in aid of extortion and firearms offenses related to a crime of violence”.

87% is the correct amount. It's a rough system.

Petition President Trump to issue a pardon. Then ask Trump to go after the criminal prosecutor, the Nazi judge and the gestapo FBI.

Nigel Farage said recently he is a “big fan of America” but went on to note what the criminal justice system here means.

High legal fees to defend yourself from charges that would but you in jail forever if convicted and the plea deal offered to make sure you serve time.

A 98 percent conviction rate.

“America is five percent of the world’s population and 20 percent of the world’s prisoners” Farage noted.
