“Does no one care? Does no one follow up?” - Judge Orders Release Of January 6 Defendant After Inspection Shows ‘Mistreatment Of Detainees’
Following an impromptu inspection of the D.C. jail, a federal judge has ordered the release of January 6 defendant, Christopher Worrell, over the mistreatment of detainees.
The surprise inspection of the jail by U.S. Marshals took place last month, but the report from the inspection was not made public until Wednesday.
Due to the findings, U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth said he has “‘zero confidence that the D.C. jail’ will provide the treatment correctly and not retaliate against Worrell,” who has cancer, CNN reported Wednesday.
Lamberth called the jail conditions “deplorable” and “beyond belief,” ordering Worrell transferred immediately to another jail and then released home to start cancer treatment, the report outlined.

Waiting On The Porch: Repost 2016
Men in tired bodies shuffled their feet
along the dirt road down by the gate,
each a staggering shadow of the other.
They appeared, then disappeared
like clouds across Cold Mountain
in early March, like the intermittent
waves of wanting to see his face
in the next ghostly line of soldiers,
dragging their broken spirits back home.
One spoke with hopeful news from
Rock Island, he had been seen alive,
he was coming home, but not sure when.
From the front porch she watched
and waited as cool days began to warm,
even as the Dogwoods flowered in spring.
The soldiers shuffled through the season
into an early summer day in Carolina,
then he stepped out, down by the gate.
