The man who sprinted past security at the White House Correspondents' Dinner and allegedly tried to kill POTUS hasn't been treated perfectly in jail, so we've got a judge literally apologizing to him for this.
APOLOGIZING TO A WOULD-BE ASSASSIN OF THE PRESIDENT?
From the AP:
Officials at the city jail in Washington, D.C., removed Cole Tomas Allen from its designated 'suicide status' over the weekend after his attorneys complained that he had been unnecessarily confined in a padded room with constant lighting, repeatedly strip searched, and placed in restraints outside his cell.
But the relaxed conditions didn't satisfy U.S. Magistrate Judge Zia Faruqui's concerns that Allen may have received disparate, punitive treatment in violation of his due process rights. Faruqui noted that the D.C. jail routinely houses convicted killers and others charged with violent crimes without placing them on 24-hour lockdown.
To be clear, Cole Tomas Allen claimed that he didn't expect to survive the would-be assassination, so that's why they placed him on suicide watch.
And now U.S. Judge Zia Faruqui has literally apologized to a man who has been charged with attempting to kill the president!
