Bruno Joseph Cua, the Milton 18-year-old charged in connection with the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, wants to go home to his parents.
In a letter to U.S. District Court Judge Randolph D. Moss on Thursday, Cua begged to be reunited with his family as he awaits trial, promising not to step one foot out of line. Cua has been in custody since his arrest on Feb. 5, and has appealed an earlier court ruling denying him bond.
I will never be the same person, jail has had its full effect me, I am completely humbled, deeply remoursefull (sic) and regretful! Cua wrote. After all, thats (sic) what jail is for right? Teaching people a lesson? Lesson fully received, your Honor.
Cua is the youngest of the more than 300 supporters of former President Donald Trump accused in the breach of the Capitol and, among Georgians charged, faces the most serious crimes. He is among just a handful of rioters who gained access to either the House or Senate chambers.

Punishment for crimes committed.
That's what jail is for.

Thing is, I will enjoy your misery for far longer than your little day at the capitol and the thrill of it all lasted for you!

The real lesson they need to learn is jail/prison is bad for everyone, not just themselves.

Completely incredible. Like you said, they demand DECADES in maximum security for, literally, KIDS!
It's infuriating.
