Page 5 of Fellows letter. 9/7/21 belongings thrown into bag for move that turned out to be a mistake - juice packet punctured spilling over 100+ papers, books, clothes. Requested therapist and eye exam - nothing. Contacts not allowed for month. "9/18/21 witnessed Jacob Lang get face slammed into wall and punched for singing the national anthem when guard told him not to." First week September lady yelled at him to wear mask while eating lunch - challenged how to eat with mask on. Put against wall, handcuffed, couldnt finish food, brought to 3 different locations all full so put in "the hole" until 6:30pm. "Other pods have food fights and swear at COs but we are forced to follow more strict rules and still get punished. No college classes like other pods, no treadmills or gamerooms." 9/14/21 clothes never came back, grievances no response, on third verbal complaint got new clothes 9/24/21 after wearing same clothes 1 week. Still not given long sleeve that was lost - told to wait 1 month or buy another.

Dated 12/29/21 letter from Sean McHugh to attorney Joseph McBride characterizing public defender Maria Jacob as his "public prosecutor not my public defender." Says Jacob would only consider a "public authority" defense to blame Trump for January 6; rejected the Declaration of Independence as a legal document; encouraged him to take a 92-115 month plea on Assault with a Deadly Weapon (federal officer) because she was "afraid they might use the terror enhancement" for a window-breaking charge. Notes he was charged with assault despite no victim identification or weapon found; the only alleged victim looks like an MPD officer, not a federal officer. The one motion Jacob filed sought investigation into Trump ("TDS — Trump Derangement Syndrome") and omitted his requested Comms between Pelosi, Schumer, Capitol Police, MPD, National Guard & Secret Service in days leading up to and on Jan 6th. Was thrilled when John Pierce took his case so he could fire Jacob.

Handwritten letter from Sean McHugh to attorney Joseph McBride dated 12-29-21, reporting that his appointed counsel Maria Jacob and co-counsel Ms. Schroff (a "terrorist lawyer from NY") have told him McBride is "not credible" and "reckless," and warning that he has a story he plans to publish on Gateway Pundit to support his son financially.

motion · Dec 28, 2021

Page 4 of pro se IAC motion, dated 12/28/21. Items 11-14: (11) at last court date Judge Bates would not let him explain why Maria Jacob was ineffective; counsel later lied in a breakout room about the topic being jail/discovery; (12) Jacob said his mother wouldn’t be a good witness because prosecution would call her biased; (13) Jacob has no defense theory, refuses critical discovery, won’t challenge the DA; (14) Jacob said she represents him not all J6ers, so the Darren Beattie / Revolver entrapment-and-lack-of-security defense is "out of the question."

motion

Caption page of Sean Michael McHugh’s pro se Ineffectiveness of Counsel brief, U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, Magistrate No. 1:21-MJ-436, labeled "Brief Outline to go into more detail later." Narrative begins by describing first federal defender Lexi Negin (Sacramento) telling him she is a BLM supporter, that if he were black this would be considered assault, and warning him not to fire Maria Jacob "once out in DC." Both Negin and Jacob waived his 30-day indictment rights; Lexi insisted Sacramento judges are "podunk hillbillies" and only DC "do findings." At his 2nd detention hearing, Maria "went out of her way to implicate my guilt without conferring with me."

motion

Earlier draft (page 1) of Sean McHugh’s ineffective-assistance brief. Top margin: "from the start Lexi told me to admit to alcoholism since I have a DUI." Body alleges federal defender Lexi Negin said she was a BLM supporter, said if he were black it would be considered assault, and warned him not to fire Maria Jacob "in DC else I would look really bad implying I would look racist." Negin told him to exhaust his next detention hearing with Jacob because Sacramento judges are "podunk hillbillies" and DC courts "actually do findings." During 2nd detention hearing, Jacob said things to implicate his guilt without consulting him, told him beforehand to "sit down, shut up and just smile." He felt humiliated.

motion

Page 2 of pro se ineffective-assistance motion. McHugh accuses Maria Jacob of: (1) waiving his speedy-trial rights on day 30 of incarceration before indictment, framing it as inevitable; (2) coaching him before his 2nd detention hearing to "sit down, shut up, smile, nod my head and reply yes when asked questions"; and (3) exhausting his second detention hearing within 30 days while in Sacramento before reviewing evidence.

Handwritten notes (likely McHugh’s) summarizing a status conference: case-specific discovery (jail calls outstanding, plus one other), global discovery on evidence.com (23,000 files, 17k Capitol footage, body cam remaining, GPS spreadsheet for radios), end-of-January completion; 17 hours withheld due to Executive of Congress (interior mostly, some exterior). Prosecutor "Strain" estimates 5 trial days / ~10 witnesses; defense "Jacob" suggests 7 days. Court ("Bates") could start 9th or 21st; tentatively March 9th.

motion

Page 1 of handwritten pro se motion by Sean McHugh against court-appointed counsel Maria Jacob, alleging ineffective assistance of counsel and gross incompetence. Details begin with point (1): Jacob failed to inform him about the 30-day indictment rule and that he was being held only on a complaint.

letter

Handwritten character reference "To Whom I May Concern" from inmate Worzel Jacobs #51556 praising fellow inmate Chris as a real American patriot, honest, educated, and stand-up guy. (Likely Chris Worrell, not Ryan Nichols.)
