The Justice Department wants to prosecute Jody Owens, Chokwe Lumumba, and Aaron Banks in Jackson. Prosecutors stated in a motion filed today:
U.S. District Judge Daniel P. Jordan, III will undoubtedly approve the motion. Judge Jordan is holding a pretrial conference on June 16. The defendants are scheduled to go to trial on July 13.

Makes sense to try the case in Jackson. Jurors will be pulled from the many different counties that comprise the federal judicial district.
Idiotic. The defendants’ only hope is jury nullification, and they know it. All they need to do is get to one juror. If they can’t get an acquittal, a hung jury will do. It’s the OJ Simpson case all over again
Bad news for Owens, Lumumba and Banks.
No excuses.
Man- this is going to be fun to watch. Bribes, drugs, sex, race.
Maybe Court TV will be there to support the defendants.
Bernie would agree
I doubt any blacks from Hinds County will be selected for the jury.
Are jurors/potential jurors going to have to deal with Jackson's impossible parking meters?
They just need one juror, no matter where they are. The odds of seating a juror that doesn't feel slighted by these grifters, is very slim. People (black and white) know right from wrong when they are allowed to think for themselves.
They had their chance to plea. Throw the book at them.
As someone who served on a Hinds jury in the past, I have to disagree with with 1:22.
We had a lone holdout who simply could not agree the defendant was guilty.
Her low IQ just prevented all reasonable debate from being effective.
11:51 For the Win
@1:39 they walk among us, are on government assistance, are uninsured and vote.
1:39 No Hinds jury this time.

Technically they can plea right up until a jury convicts.
They will both walk. The amount of graft and theft happening here will render any prosecutorial argument moot.
After the jury sees the massive amount of evidence of corruption, the perps will use the Richard Pryor defense “Who are you going to believe, me or your lying eyes?”.
Why are the feds doing this?
Cope and seethe Rukia.
Slam effin’ dunk. I mean, c’mon, man (or dude, or bro, or bruh), what more do you need than the sworn testimony of the FBI?
I want to hear the Crooked DA Owens explain away being in possession of the marked bills given to him as a bribe by the undercover FBI agents and found in his office hidden in a fake book about the US Constitution or Bill of Rights. Will he use will the intoxication defense “If I was drunk, I can’t be corrupt!!! The failed mayor will use the racism defense claiming the pro-life white racists in Ms. have all been identified by the SPLC as a hate group and are trying to keep a successful educated black man down even though it was the Biden administration’s FBI and DOJ. Win,Lose or Draw the legal process is a big part of the punishment. Hope they are both bankrupt prior to sentencing.
