Are you saying that the DoJ withheld evidence and failed to join necessary parties - both of which would be reasons to overturn these convictions?

They were found guilty of conspiring with each other and with the remaining Oath Keepers who were charged with doing the stuff in the indictment under the heading “The Conspiracy.”

I don’t see why it is necessary to undermine these convictions by suggesting they were improperly obtained.
