Judge Timothy J. Kelly, a Donald Trump appointee, ruled on Thursday that Jensen should go back to jail pretrial because he had violated his conditions of release.
I ordered the various conditions of release in this case because of the role that the internet conspiracy theories appeared to have played in Mr. Jensens alleged conduct, Kelly said. One of the reasons ... I decided to let him out with those conditions was in part based on his representations that he understood that they were a pack of lies and that he had turned the corner.
Jensen was released from jail, over the governments objection, under strict conditions in July. As BuzzFeed News reported last month, a court officer discovered Jensen was using a WiFi-connected iPhone to watch videos online, and had watched a so-called cyber symposium that was hosted by MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell, a prominent conspiracy theorist who has boosted baseless claims that the 2020 election was stolen.
