A North Carolina man who was charged with assaulting Capitol Police officers on January 6, 2021, was detained again after authorities said he tried to flee an arrest last month.
Judge Timothy Kelly ordered James Grant back to pretrial detention during a hearing Tuesday. Kelly also revoked Grant's pretrial release, arguing that Grant violated the terms of his initial release and was a threat to those around him.
Court documents cited a police report as saying that Grant was arrested on suspicion of DWI in the early morning of December 7 after a police officer responded to a call at a restaurant in Wake County. The police officer said that Grant initially tried to flee the arrest and that the officer found an AR-15 rifle with 60 rounds of ammunition and accessories, as well as combat fatigues, in his car. The arrest prompted the Justice Department to seek an end to Grant's pretrial release.
The dimwit is clearly incapable of learning anything from the lessons that have been given to him.
