"Gun activist Adam Kokesh needs a new lawyer."

I can't get that video to play.

It's probably because the lawyer wants to negotiate a deal to reduce the chance of him being sentenced to prison and Adam does not want to. I would imagine Adam wishes to address the court against his lawyer's advice. The lawyer can't say that their strategies are too widely apart or that he doesn't agree with Adam Kokesh and as such cannot represent him without a hint of bias or a stain on Adam's new defense.

Kudos to Adam Kokesh for staying strong. The facade of "protecting the public" is ingrained deeply in the minds of most. Hopefully a juror understands their obligations... and likewise, hopefully Adam Kokesh gets released as soon as possible with a lawsuit granted his way. (to pay for the door, the floor, the various other broken shit and the psychological effects of being encaged)

I hope you are right. I wish their was a wealthier ron pauler aka mighty mouse willing to step in and try to save the day for adam. sigh

Moneybomb to hire Kokesh a decent attorney? I mean seriously. He can be an ass sometimes, but on balance I've found him helpful to the cause. Besides, he's being prosecuted (persecuted) for standing up for the 2nd amendment.

The problem is that there is no one to trust at this point.

After the fiasco with his 'associates' looting most of his funds that had been already raised for court costs, good luck.

That.

 

[pcosmar]

For obvious legal reasons, the nature of the circumstances cannot be disclosed

Not at all obvious. Seems he was either Fired,,or quit and the reason is not forthcoming
Perhaps he was threatened,,and so it CANNOT BE DISCLOSED.

It is Obfuscated. That is Obvious.

Sounds like a non-payment issue to me.

That's possible. I recall reading how the people living with him went through all the donation money.

This also seems possible. Generally a lawyer will end representation if you don't take their advice or follow their legal strategy.


Either way I hope he gets this resolved and is able to get his life back together.

I think that is a pretty good guess. Typically a court will not allow an attorney to withdraw from a criminal defense just because he isn't getting paid. This is why criminal defense attorneys demand payment up front.

 

[Acala]

They should be defending him, we all know they won't, but they should be.

Does GOA have any attorneys they can send?

Defend him against drug charges? Ain't gonna happen. Not NRA, not GOA. The Feds have him in a nasty bind.

 

[tod evans]

The Feds have him in a nasty bind.

On purpose.

 

[pcosmar]

What drug charges?

He has no drug charges in D.C. He has no Federal Drug Charges,,He has Virginia State Possession Charges,, but has not been tried nor convicted on that.

This is over a YouTube of him with a shotgun in Freedom Plaza.

 

[Anti Federalist]

Godspeed Adam.

Say hello to Ed and Elaine Brown for me.

Another fallen.

 

[DamianTV]

Then we need to make his inevitable conviction mean something because soon enough, it will be ALL of us.

The problem is that there is no one to trust at this point.

I wouldn't say no one, unless you want to include Ron Paul too.

 

[fr33]

I wouldn't say no one, unless you want to include Ron Paul too.

In context of what you are quoting, you make no sense whatsoever. Ron Paul has nothing to do with Kokesh. Ron hired people that eventually banned Kokesh from his events. So much for trust eh?

Even though kokesh's associates ripped off my last donation ($50), I'm willing to do it again. So long as the money goes where it will be securely held and used appropriately.

Money Bomb?? Yea, I'm in. All we need now is someone to set up the site...

Kickstarter? etc... Any ideas...

Bueller....Bueller.....Anyone?
