Alex Jones’ sidekick cuts cooperation deal with DOJ for January 6th; big fish indictments seemingly around the corner
About a year and a half ago, the DOJ criminally indicted Alex Jones’ top InfoWars sidekick Owen Shroyer on charges relating to January 6th. At the time, Shroyer publicly vowed to fight it. But as so often happens once the rubber meets the road, it was reporte yesterday that Shroyer has now agreed to plead guilty – and he’s cooperating with the DOJ as part of that deal. What stands out is the timing.
Yesterday it was reported that the two “fake electors” who recently testified to Jack Smith’s grand jury had received limited immunity in exchange for their testimony. It was also further reported that they’d been given a deadline of the end of this month – which is just six days from now – to either testify or get indicted. This very much suggests that June 30th is Jack Smith’s overall deadline for witnesses to testify in his 2020 election-related case, and that these last two witnesses were stragglers.
Of course once witnesses are finished testifying to the grand jury, the only thing left to do is to have the grand jury bring the indictments. So it appears that Jack Smith will start bringing indictments related to the attempted overthrow of the 2020 election sometime shortly after June 30th. Those indictments could easily include people like Alex Jones or his pal Roger Stone. And now just ahead of the deadline, Alex Jones’ top sidekick is suddenly cutting a cooperating plea deal. The timing – and what it implies – are fascinating on so many levels. Stay tuned.
