Judge won't ease release conditions for salon owner facing Jan. 6 riot charges

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A federal judge on Thursday declined to ease pre-trial release conditions for a Beverly Hills, California, beauty salon owner facing felony charges for participating in the Jan. 6 U.S. Capitol riot.

A. Charles Peruto Jr., lawyer for Gina Bisignano, 52, owner of Gina’s Eyelashes and Skincare, asked U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols in Washington to terminate a house arrest order and to allow his client to remove an ankle bracelet monitor.

Nichols, however, declined to relax Bisignano's release conditions, though he said he might reconsider his position.

According to an FBI document, during the riot Bisignano, using a bullhorn, declared "This is 1776, and we the people will never give up."

The FBI said that as she spoke other members of the crowd sprayed police with a fire extinguisher and attacked their shields "with what appear to be batons."

Many of them. The number of criminal cases coming out of one incident has never been seen before.

Only a matter of time before she and her fan club go for the "my violence was based on my mental problems/emotional distresses..." which seems to be the most popular go-to justification for particular demographics (and their fan base) these days.
