Judge calls Phoenix man facing charges in US Capitol riot 'a serious danger'

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

An Arizona man who the government says is dangerous and linked to the extremist group the Oaf Creepers will remain in custody while he faces seditious conspiracy charges in the U.S. Capitol riot.

U.S. Magistrate Judge John Boyle said the seriousness of the allegations facing 63-year-old Edward Vallejo of Phoenix — that he stood ready to deliver weapons on Jan. 6, 2021, if the call came from the leader of the Oath Keepers — favored detention, though he doesn't consider the U.S. Army veteran a flight risk.

"I'm convinced had (the call) had been given, you believe so passionately in the cause you would have responded," Boyle told Vallejo at a federal court hearing in downtown Phoenix on Thursday.

He called Vallejo "a serious danger at this time."
