Sometimes you gotta watch who you call a moron because tables do turn.
A Jan. 6 defendant whose name was given to the FBI by an ex-girlfriend he called a “moron” pleaded guilty to a felony on Tuesday.
Richard Michetti was arrested in Ridley Park, Pennsylvania, in February 2021. He pleaded guilty to obstruction of an official proceeding and appeared virtually before Judge Christopher R. Cooper.
His lawyer appeared virtually, from a boat.
Court documents reveal that his ex-romantic partner, who is referred to in an FBI affidavit as “Witness 1,” turned his name into the FBI after the Capitol attack.
“If you can’t see the election was stolen you’re a moron,” Michetti texted his former partner on Jan. 6, according to court documents.
Michetti wrote that “the election was rigged and everyone knows it.”
“All’s we wanted was an investigation that’s it. And they couldn’t investigate the biggest presidential race in history with mail-in ballots who everyone knows is easy to fraud,” Michetti wrote.
He has been on house arrest since he was arrested last year, but he received permission to attend a wedding last month.
Michetti’s sentencing was set for September.
