Gun Rights Activist Adam Kokesh Is Granted Bond, Prohibited From Possessing Firearms
WASHINGTON -- Gun activist Adam Kokesh, arrested last week in connection with a video showing him loading a shotgun just blocks from the White House while calling for the “final American Revolution," has been prohibited from possessing guns for the duration of his legal case.
WJLA reports that Kokesh has been ordered released on $5000 bond by a Fairfax County judge and is likely to be released from jail on Monday afternoon.
A preliminary hearing will be held on Oct. 2 according to NBC Washington, which reports that it's not yet clear if Kokesh has an attorney.
Kokesh has been charged with possession of a Schedule I or II drug, and possession of a Schedule I or II drug while in possession of a firearm, according to NBC Washington. Hallucinogenic mushrooms were found when police came to Kokesh's home -- in Reston, Va., about 20 miles from D.C. -- last week in what some supporters have described as "not a valid search."
