Daniel Sanchez is facing federal charges for what free speech advocates say is a clear attack on the First Amendment.

Federal prosecutors have filed a new indictment in response to a July 4 noise demonstration outside the Prairieland ICE detention facility in Alvarado, Texas, during which a police officer was shot.

There are numerous problems with the indictment, but perhaps the most glaring is its inclusion of charges against a Dallas artist who wasn’t even at the protest. Daniel “Des” Sanchez is accused of transporting a box that contained “Antifa materials” after the incident, supposedly to conceal evidence against his wife, Maricela Rueda, who was there.

You almost always lose in the first court for civil rights violations, you appeal and sometimes the appeal court gets it if not you appeal again to state supreme bb
