David Wright sentenced

| December 20, 2017

According to Time, David Wright plotted with his uncle, Ussamah Rahim, to behead blogger Pamela Gellar for her campaign against jihadists and her “draw Mohammad” contest. His uncle abandoned plans to behead the blogger and instead decided to go after “those boys in blue”, a decision that cost him his life when he tried to assault two Boston police officers with a knife who shot him dead.

In court yesterday, Wight’s lawyer asked for 16-years in prison for their client, Gellar asked for a life sentence, the judge gave him 28 years.

Wright, who was more than 500 pounds when he was arrested, testified during the trial that he started sharing Islamic State propaganda because he was desperate for attention and an escape. But he said the plan to kill Geller was just “trash talk” and claimed he never believed his uncle was serious about attacking police.

The third man charged, Nicholas Rovinski, of Warwick, Rhode Island, pleaded guilty last year to conspiracy, testified against Wright and is scheduled to be sentenced Wednesday. Prosecutors are seeking 15 years behind bars.

Well, he got the attention he craved, so he’s got that going for him.

500 lbs?

Here we have the counterpart of a Navy SEAL, and ISIS Whale!

Ex-PH2

Now you know why police cars and squad rolls are reinforced.

Martinjmpr

Squad car? He needs to be transported on a flat bed or maybe a moving van.

UpNorth

I believe he’d be able to fit into a used UPS van. Barely.

Graybeard

And why older LEOs and EMS personnel have back issues.

Fat Mary weighed 800 pounds the first time we were called to help EMS load her, she had slimmed down to a sexy 600 pounds about 3 months later when she had to go back to the ER.

Had a guy that passed out in his 2nd floor apartment, who weighed about 560 pounds. We ended up having the fire department send one of their ladder trucks, and we dismantled his windows in the front of his apartment. They took him out on 3 backboards, stacked.

RGR 4-78

We had planned, that if her house caught on fire, 1 crew would make entry with an attack line and an extra air pack for her, the next crew would dismantle the window and wall so we could roll her hospital bed out.

They used a by forklift to get him around the courthouse

I think his problem was too much fork-lifting.

QMC

Did he eat the other ISIS conspirators? 500 lbs…geez…

Ex-PH2

Elephant seal personified.

Oh, he wanted attention so badly that he got hisself busted and now has to spend his life in jail for many, many moons.

Not real bright, is he? The poster boy for ‘be careful what you wish for.’

With 28 years to do in the federal pound, he will have plenty of time to lose weight on the halal Weight Watchers program. Of course, some of those BJT deli sammiches may be high in calories, but he will burn those off as they chase him around the yard or his cell.

I think Herman Melville wrote a book along these lines…

He ain’t no white whale

But he will soon be a sperm whale

500 pounds?

More “cushion for the pushin”.

UpNorth

He’ll be able to service the whole cell block in the folds of skin on his body.

A Proud Infidel®™

He won’t be able to run away from Bubba & Thor when they want to pop his cherry and if he does try to run he won’t get very far before they catch and deflower him, he better practice SQUUUUUUEEEEAAAAALing like a good ‘lil piggy!!!

Veritas Omnia Vincit

Course if he rolls back on them they could end up spitting up their intestines and lungs…none of that is a bad outcome either for my money.

Sapper3307

Do any of our Navy folks think he needs the bread and water diet for a few years in can.

Combat Historian

This fatboy took his ramadan seriously and gorged himself bigtime from sun-down to sun-up, except he did it for all the other days of the year as well…

Mason

I predict he’ll gain weight in prison and then file (and receive) an early, compassionate release because of health issues.

Graybeard

Don’t know about the situation where he is going, but very few inmates gain weight in prison.

Most of them actually get into the best physical condition of their lives. No drugs, booze, or women, have to work at a job, nothing to do in their off-time but watch tv or hit the gym. Some parole out with some body-fat on them still, but not like they often have when going in.

In two months they are often back to being out of shape.

Jeff LPH 3, 63-66

Looks like he didn’t start out on the Wright track.

USMC Steve

Do they make a cell that size? How they going to get him in and out of the cell? Grease him up and push?

And he’ll be giving head instead of getting a head. 🙄

I wonder how much of this 500lb (dry weight)
