A Jan. 6 defendant’s boast in an interview this week that he had no regrets about his role in the Capitol riot — just days after he acknowledged his guilt in a federal courtroom — may upend the man’s efforts to resolve the criminal case against him.
...
Judges handling Jan. 6 cases have been repeatedly and increasingly irked by defendants appearing to be apologetic and contrite in court, only to make public statements days later minimizing their guilt and sounding cavalier about their actions. And judges are loath to accept what effectively amounts to a guilty plea from any defendant who doesn’t sincerely believe in their own guilt.

@Mik said in Jan. 6 defendants lying to the Courts?:
So they have to be sincere? You haven’t spent much time in a courtroom, have you?
It’s not that they should be sincere, it’s that they should be smart enough not to brag about their insincerity in the press between their guilty plea and sentencing.
But again, these are not very bright guys.
Really by definition. These are the imbeciles who couldn’t even see through Trump in January of 2021.
