A 2nd suspected Antifa member has turned himself in to police in connection with an alleged attack on a group of Marine reservists which took place this month in Philadelphia. Metro reports:


    Thomas Massey, 32, of West Philadelphia, surrendered on Nov. 28 to face charges for the alleged incident on the 100 block of Chestnut Street, in which a group of U.S. Marine reservists some blocks from the rally they were assaulted by a group of men and women calling them “Nazis” and “white supremacists.” One complainant said their phone was stolen…

    Massey is now charged with two counts each of criminal conspiracy, aggravated assault and terroristic threats for the incident. He was freed on bail of $10,000 after posting 10 percent, according to court records.

Someone correct me if I am wrong,but don't the conspiracy charges make it a federal case?

Both federal law and state law define the crime of conspiracy. Whether a person is charged under federal or state law depends upon the specific circumstances. Often, the federal government will prosecute persons allegedly involved in a conspiracy that spans multiple states, whereas a state government will generally handle matters that are entirely contained within its borders. If the crime underlying the conspiracy is a federal crime, this too may lead to federal, rather than state, prosecution.

Thanks! Since Antifa is a national organization and this guy has now been arrested in multiple states,he might be taking a long trip soon.

Unless of course he gets a Dim or a Globalist alleged Republican judge,so sees Antifa as a useful tool to advance the revolution.
