A Springfield man may be in more hot water because of comments he made in an interview after his conviction on charges related to the January 6 insurrection.
Thomas Adams, Jr. is awaiting sentencing after his conviction in a bench trial in which he stipulated that he had done the things that federal prosecutors accused him of, including entering restricted areas of the U.S. Capitol.
But after that conviction, Adams told the State Journal-Register that even though he had to admit guilt, he didn’t feel that he had done anything wrong.
The judge in the case has now ordered Adams to explain his statements, raising the possibility that the case against him could be reopened.
