now?


I don't claim to know WHAT his problems are, but he's publicly admitted that he has them and is currently getting disability and care for them from the VA. Hopefully he gets better. He's pulled small scale publicity stunts so far, nothing that deserves mention in the same sentence as Adams.
In jail no. A few months ago I would have thought that. But now I think he should be in a VA hospital or something like that until he sorts himself out.
He's messed up his future pretty badly now with multiple felonies and federal charges. Hopefully he can get his life back together.
But, but, he disobeyed laws and should have paid the gatekeepers their blood money before he chose to go against one of their "laws" put there to keep us "safe". Therefore Kokesh is showing his insanity by failing to comply with any and all laws put forth for us mundanes. /sarcListen to yourself, for cryin' out loud... he messed up his future!? He racked a shell, for gawd's sake.
BTW I'm already starting to read moles (paid ones too) on other political sites attempting to tie Adam Kokesh to Rand Paul (since he endorsed him long prior to this circus).

PRELIMINARY HEARING: DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA VS ADAM KOKESH
DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA SUPERIOR COURT
JULY 29, 2013 09:00
[email protected]
The courtroom this morning was dimmed for Adam Kokesh's first hearing after he was taken into Federal custody on Friday, July 26. As Adam was brought in in front of the judge in an orange prison jumpsuit and shackles, Adam's attorney, Peter Cooper, immediately asked why the Federal Marshals had confiscated Adam's notes. The judge replied that Mr. Cooper could "buy the transcripts, if he wished". The tone for this case thus set, the prosecution brought forward Detective Robert Freeman to testify regarding the affidavit that he presented to Judge Frederick Sullivan. The affidavit for this case is in addition to the sealed affidavit that allowed a coalition of federal thugs to perform a raid on Adam's Herndon residence three weeks ago.
The contents of Detective Freeman's affidavit, accepted today, were not read verbatim, but did specifically mention the YouTube video that Adam posted on the morning of July 4. The sealed affidavit from the Virginia case has not yet been opened.
The tone throughout the hearing was terse, and the prosecuting attorney repeatedly objected to each question that Adam's lawyer posed, citing 'discovery' as the reason why any question whatsoever would be absolutely invalid. It seems as if the court has at least one confidential informant that will see the stand as the case progresses. The judge's attitude went hand-in-hand with the prosecution, portraying Mr. Cooper's questions as insolent and repeatedly threatening to end the hearing early.
Adam's lawyer pressed the witness to describe the shotgun that was found in Herndon, and the witness could not name the model, but stated that it was the same shape and color as the one portrayed in the video. When asked if he knew what a green screen was, Detective Freeman noted that he "was not a video forensics analyst". Judge Sullivan stated that it was 'ridiculous to question' the authenticity of the video, because Adam had 'racked a shotgun for all the world to see'.
Mr. Cooper's questions laid bare the gaping holes in the warrant and the case to light, though it remains to be seen whether the facts will overcome the overwhelming bias that Judge Sullivan showed in the opening act of this high-profile case.
The attorneys for the day's other cases in the front row of the courtroom pulled up Adam's YouTube channel on their mobile devices and cracked jokes about Adam's guilt. Adam has been charged with carrying a firearm outside his home or office in the District of Columbia, which carries a sentence of up to 5 years.
The tension in the courtroom came to a head when the Judge shouted that he "WOULD NOT ENGAGE IN RIDICULOUSNESS" after accusing Mr. Cooper of "wasting his time" with "ridiculous questions". He scoffed at Adam's attorney. None of that mattered though as Adam was denied bond for this case. The judge said that Adam was a flight risk, and because he is outspoken political activist who was found with weapons, he is also considered dangerous to the public. The judge also noted that Adam had a previous minor marijuana charge from June 8, 2013.
Adam will remain a political prisoner without bond until his felony status hearing on August 13. The AVTM team is continually raising funds for Adam's legal and operational expenses at www.adamvstheman.com/invest. and we have raised approximately $17,000 of our goal of at least $45,000. Please donate as much as you responsibly can in order to make sure that Adam keeps his freedom. We will be releasing further updates as they develop. Thank you immensely for your support.

Some of you will say the law he broke was unconstitutional and I'll agree, but it's still a law. We have procedures to seek redress for unconstitutional laws but he took it upon himself to break the law instead and is now suffering the consequences.
what is the life expectancy of snitches?one confidential informant that will see the stand as the case progresses-
Yes, he's messed up his future. His prospects for employment are bleak with multiple felonies on his record. He's committed and admitted to a federal offense. He's looking at years in federal prison and severely reduced chances at a future upon release as a con. That's if the Feds even let him go. Any reasonable person can see that.
I mean right now he is not working and living off the tit of the same government he hates so much.

Damn that Rosa Parks.
Damn that Rosa Parks.
You are such a sad, sad member of this place.
I'm actually really satisfied with my life thanks.
I'm sure she knew the penalty for her actions. What she did was far less serious than multiple federal offenses. Kokesh has really screwed up his life here.
He did it for us all, ya ingrate.
I do not believe that is true.
