More On the Would-Be Assassin

The man who traveled to Maryland to try to kill Justice Brett Kavanaugh has been identified as Nicholas John Roske, from Simi Valley, California. He apparently made it to Justice Kavanaugh’s house before being apprehended:

    Nicholas John Roske, 26, of Simi Valley, Calif., was charged with attempted murder after two U.S. deputy marshals saw him step out of a taxicab in front of the justice’s house in Chevy Chase, Md., early Wednesday morning, federal prosecutors said. Mr. Roske was dressed in black and carrying a suitcase and a backpack, according to a federal affidavit.

    Inside the suitcase and backpack, the authorities later discovered a “black tactical chest rig and tactical knife,” a pistol with two magazines and ammunition, pepper spray, zip ties, a hammer, a screwdriver, a nail punch, a crowbar, a pistol light and duct tape, in addition to other items, according to the affidavit.

    His plan was to break into the house, kill the justice and then kill himself, according to the affidavit.


Needless to say, Roske is somewhat unbalanced:

    Soon after, the Montgomery County Emergency Communications Center received a call from Mr. Roske, who said he was having suicidal thoughts and had a firearm in his suitcase, according to the affidavit.

    He said he had traveled from California to Maryland “to kill a specific United States Supreme Court justice,” the affidavit said.

    Officers from the Montgomery County Police Department arrived and found Mr. Roske still on the phone with the communications center.

If this was a right wing assailant against a left leaning judge, can you imagine the wall to wall 24/7 coverage?


The MSM MUST ultimately pay for this among a multitude of other criminal hypocricy.
