Capitol Rioter (Jenny Cudd) Asks Court to Let Her Vacation in Mexico

[UpInArms]

One of the rioters who stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6 is asking a federal court to let her leave the country so she can make the most of a Mexican vacation she booked prior to the insurrection. In a court filing on Monday, Jenny Cudd’s attorneys said their client ”planned and prepaid for a weekend retreat with her employees” in Riviera Maya, Mexico, later this month and would like to attend. Cudd, the owner of a Midland, Texas, flower shop, told the court that the trip is “a work-related bonding retreat for employees and their spouses.”

An FBI affidavit alleged that Cudd was one of a number of rioters who broke into the Capitol and paraded around the rotunda. The government claims Cudd published a Facebook video after the riot in which she said, “We did break down the Nancy Pelosi’s office door” [sic] and claimed to have no regrets about her actions. “Fuck yes, I am proud of my actions. I fucking charged the Capitol today with patriots today,” Cudd allegedly said.

I hate these people!!

[MustLoveBeagles]

2. Seriously?!

[Caliman73]

19. No. Not seriously.

The article has a correction. The magistrate has not approved travel.

That doesn't mean they won't but it has not happened yet. The pretrial service officer did not have any objection to the travel though, which is ridiculous.

I am wondering if this had been a non-white person, who stormed the Capitol in the name of Socialism or Black Lives matter (aside from that person having been shot up) would they be even considering letting them go party on the Mexican Riviera?

[MustLoveBeagles]

20. Thanks for pointing that out

If it had been a Socialist or BLM travel arrangements wouldn't have even come up. They'd be dead.

5. 'I went inside the Capitol completely legally...'

Lie.

If true, she wouldnt have been charged with ENTERING THE CAPITOL ILLEGALLY.

'...I didnt have any weapons or ammunition inside the Capitol.'

I'd doublecheck that, given statement 1

3. Pobrecita nia..

No clue how grossly entitled this looks at all.
No clue they've broken the law at all.
No clue they embody the very white privilege they deny exists.

4. I hate that courts are not universally being hard-assed with these people, but Mexico has an

extradition treaty with the USA... So as long as she isn't a citizen of Mexico, they will send her back even if she tries to stay.

6. I may be wrong.

But it looks like the rioters that have money or social status are not being held in the klink like poorer rioters.

[mr_lebowski]

10. C'mon this is the United States ... something like that would NEVER happen here ...

[Blue_true]

16. Sure looks like it is to me.

I guess expensive lawyers in fancy suits carry more weight with judges than public defenders that buy their clothes at discount places (not putting down public defenders, they are a vital part of our judicial system, but seem badly underpaid)

[mr_lebowski]

21. Yeah, no, that was a joke

The eyeroll was for the reality of the situation, not for what you said

Not that I give two shits about these particular people, but this principle always applies.

7. omg unfreaking real

what's up with these judges? Are they part of the insurrection too?

[helpisontheway]

8. The prosecutor did not express an opinion..Really?!? Must be MAGA too..nt

[mr_lebowski]

9. And people thought the trip to Burger King was bad (nt)

[Mr.Bill]

11. Actually, I wouldn't mind keeping her bail money

and have her never return to the US.

[Blue_true]

17. That would be good.

And if the Mexican version of Dog the Bounty Hunter tracked her down, it would be to tell her to stay the hell where she is at.

[LeftInTX]

18. She did not have bail. Released on own recognizance.

She had a hearing and went home.

But eff that Mexico, "I already paid for my vacation" shit
You can cancel your pretty vacation..

[angrychair]

12. This is grossly absurd

What is preventing her from leaving and just not coming back?

What world do you get to commit felonies and the judge lets you go on vacation???

[jalan48]

13. Dear diary, January is insurrection month and February is holiday in Mexico.

[OhioChick]

14. This is BS n/t

[ck4829]

15. Really?

[smirkymonkey]

22. I cannot even believe that this is under consideration.

WTF? Talk about white privilege! NO! Just NO! This is unacceptable.
