What was the desired benefit?
Why did they even want to do this?

Qwerty beat me to it, but it was to lay the foundation for the “insurrection” narrative:

Unindicted co-conspirators could unravel the full story of what the FBI knew in advance about the January 6th Capitol Riots.

Did the FBI really think it wouldn’t come out that they were heavily involved to the point of basically planning the whole operation out and recruiting for it?

I think they did and the effect is that anyone thinking of plotting anything now sees a fed behind every bush and tree.

perhaps this was the desired outcome.

Certainly not the central one.

It seems unlikely the charges will be dismissed. My guess is the defense team is trying to get their claims out in front of potential jurors before the trial.

Good to see the defense doing that for a change, if so. Usually it's the prosecutors demonizing cops, and other citizens (Rittenhouse anyone?).

If they wanted major news coverage they would have not asked for dismissal on Christmas Eve. Not enough eyes on the news.

Two of the defendants have been acquitted, and the jury can't reach verdicts on the others.

Two defendants acquitted, Two defendants mistrial...No convictions.

From start to finish this seemed like a well thought out use of taxpayer money.

 

[Liberty Sanders]

It seems that the FBI's method of talking inbred retards into some conspiracy and then charging them with it won't fly anymore. Juries are onto it.

Back to the drawing board.

No convictions out of this entire show.

Glowie batting average not looking so hot lately.

Well, you have to do something to get people's minds off the authoritarianism that was displayed over the last few years.

Is that Scotty Kilmer's brother? Sounds like him.
