A New Jersey man with alleged Nazi sympathies who stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, tried to convince a jury this week that he didn't know the U.S. Capitol building is where Congress meets.
McFadden was the judge who ordered Hale-Cusanelli held until trial, in part based onillustrating racist comments he made. According to prosecutors, at least 34 of Hale-Cusanelli's colleagues told them that he held"extremist or radical views pertaining to the Jewish people, minorities, and women." A Navy petty officer claimed Hale-Cusanelli once said that"Hitler should have finished the job," prosecutors said.
“I really like attention and I like talking a lot,” he testified. He called some of his remarks"ironic humor," and claimed, in the final moments of his testimony, that he was half Puerto Rican and half Jewish, and that his comments were"self-deprecating humor" that helped him"cope with how I was raised."
"It'll just be one side with guns against another side with dildos and bongs I wonder who will win," Hale-Cusanelli wrote in one message cited by prosecutors. "The defendant knew exactly what he was doing that day," a federal prosecutor said."He knew that was the last stand for Trump."
