Trial Date Set For Man Accused Of Threatening State Rep

Franklin Sain, Trial Date Set For Man Accused Of Threatening Rep. Rhonda Fields

The trial date for the Colorado Springs man who was arrested in March and charged with threatening a Colorado State Representative has been set.

A Denver district judge set a Nov. 20 trial date for Franklin Sain, 42. Sain was charged with attempting to influence a public servant and harassment-ethnic intimidation, a felony and a misdemeanor respectively. He could spend up to six years in prison if he is convicted of the felony charge.

Sain pleaded not guilty at his formal arraignment and had told police that he was just "voicing some frustrations" over gun bills being sponsored by state Rep. Rhonda Fields (D-Aurora).

Fields, who sponsored a bill banning banning high-capacity gun magazines and limiting capacity to 15 rounds as well as a universal gun background checks bill, issued a statement after Sain's arrest thanking law enforcement.

I am grateful for the prompt work of the Colorado State Patrol in bringing this suspect to justice. I also thank the Denver Police Department, which was instrumental in the investigation. I will not be deterred by threats

.

Nice to know another C.Springs gun-nut will go on-trial for intimidation... Sooner or later they'll figure out they can't threaten legislators and get away with it. I wonder if that lobbyist from RMGOA will get a trial date soon?

Look, squirrel!

Was that a butterfly?

So the Senior White house staff was told of the IG report but chose not to tell the President.
"Shhh, he is working on the playlist for when Jay-Z and Beyonce visit."

So a nut threatens a state Rep.... therefore what? Can we concude that this is some sort of broad based right wing revolution ready to take down all the mean anti-gun Dems? Or is this one of many random nuts doing what nuts do best?

Someone wake me up when this means something :Snooze
