      His lawyers have said so in court filings. It is, for me, an unexpected and puzzling detail though. We may learn more in due course about his background, sexuality and habits. There is not enough there to draw any conclusions.

        witness: There's the dead body, two bullet holes in the forehead.

        The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

          You’re a hopeless case CP, not even I can save you.

          You are dealing here with someone who has recently exhibited very abnormal behaviour. Some caution is merited, don’t ya think?

            His own lawyer.... do you understand what it means in American jurisprudence when one's own lawyer makes a statement on their client's behalf?

              I assume the lawyer is acting in accordance with his client’s instructions. Regarding salutation and so on, why would he deviate. But the only evidence is the court filing.

              You cannot really construct a narrative with so little information - is my point. But don’t let me stop you.

                His 'position' is that of someone who literally had a pro-abortion loon try to assassinate him, you utter buffoon.

                    I was correct - you don't know how this stuff works.

                      I am not sure that “try to assisted him” is correct in this very unusual case.

                      Roske is hardly the typical assassin. And clearly he is not representative of a class of womens health activists, or others who are disappointed with SCOTUS.

                          Why should he keep his mouth shut about a leftist looney, upset over the deliberately leaked Dobbs decision -- and likely fueled by Chuck Schumer's violence-inciting angry remarks that specifically targeted Kavanaugh -- who came all the way across country with a gun and other equipment intent on murdering him?

                              Which is precisely why Bernie Sanders campaign worker and Rachel Maddow fanboi, James Hodgkinson, very specifically asked if it was Republicans or Democrats out on the softball field practicing for a charity game. It was out of loving and kindness, so that he didn't try to commit mass murder against the wrong group.

                                If you look at political assassins or those who attempt it, very few fit into the mold of your stereotypical assassins (trained specialized killers). Most are more than a bit cuckoo for cocoa puffs. Apparently the only reason that he balked at carrying out his planned (possibly mass) murder was because he realized he had been spotted by law enforcement when he arrived outside Kavanaugh's house, and figured he was now being hunted by the police and scared he would get shot and killed, turned himself in.

                                And he fits quite comfortably in with the Jane's Revenge "womens [sic] health activists."
