Stealerthem?

Pixiedust1234 · 18/05/2023 23:32

Brinton was given plea deals in both cases which did not involve jail time.
Now, they are facing a minimum of one year in prison, but up to 20, under Virginia law.

I wonder if he will, or can, do another plea deal. Twenty years though 😮

Ok, I now see that this is probably related to the theft of the designer's clothes, as the charges are from a theft from Reagan International Airport. Fancy stealing distinctive clothing and being as brazen as to wear it in publicity shots. Can hardly claim he didn't steal women's clothes for the thrill of wearing them now, can he?

OnlyTheWeedsGrow · 18/05/2023 23:13

Certainly a different tone in the article…. Described as a “non-binary drag-queen”, facing minimum of 1 year jail due to another bag theft in a different state. ☀️☀️☀️☀️

EsmaCannonball · 18/05/2023 23:13

I've seen this on Twitter but it's really unclear why he's been arrested. Has he been stealing more clothes? Are there new charges relating to old thefts? (E.g. from the designer cited previously on this thread.) Is it something to do with the conditions of his suspended sentence?

Apparently he has managed to find another highly paid job. Not like the women whose careers are destroyed for having the opinion that sex is real and politically salient.

Not quite sure what that means? Has he gone on the run?

Sam Brinton's "non-binary" status is ONLY of interest to us here because he and some others claim that his "non-binary" somehow trumps the fact he's male.

If non-binary men weren't pretending not to be male, or claiming that they didn't have exactly the same behaviour patterns as men, or trying to bypass normal sex-based protocols there would be no beef.

But as long as non-binary men are pretending they're different from men, we have to keep pointing out that they're not. Including highlighting cases like this of a non-binary man carrying out a male-typical offence against women.

There is no need to highlight other groups of men, as they're not claiming their labels exempt them from being treated as men.

Exactly.

Returning the clothes is another little moment for his w@nkbank. The judge clearly doesn't know how fetishists work.

Happylittlechicken · 20/04/2023 08:35

Sam looking very er… manly in his court appearance. Notice no fabulous clothes or make up 🙃🙃.

What a very...male...post that is. Yeuch.

Show quote history

Exactly what I was going to say!

if it talks like a man then it probably is a man.

BabyStopCryin · 20/04/2023 07:21

I assume he will go back to his job (that he is still getting paid for)?

And why does the victim have to be insulted by the return of the clothes and the “apology?” Did anyone ask her if she wanted it?

That’s forced interaction with that repugnant man. I would want nothing to do with him.

Precisely.

No victim wants those clothes back. If it were me, I'd want to know he had a punishment that would deter future crimes.

RETURNING THE CLOTHES!

Returning the clothes is likely to be rewarding for him.

Like those men with very similar fetish-driven behaviour who take underwear from M&S, “use” it in the changing rooms and put it back on the shelves.

You have to wonder about that judge.

OnlyTheWeedsGrow · 19/04/2023 06:35

He has been wearing the clothes, some of them were altered, all of them are now tainted because of his association with them - what purpose does returning them fill? Except, I suppose, the added insult of him knowing he has worn them and basically gotten away with it….

GarethSouthgatesWaistcoat · 19/04/2023 02:14

An update from the Minneapolis case.

I can't quite make it out but it seems like a nice, easy diversionary programme, a brief apology to his victim, they've requested he returns the stolen goods to the victim (what happens if he no longer has them, or claims not to? 🙄🤢 Who would even want them back after that) and a measly 3 days' community service.

Clearly they don't feel like imposing a jail term or a substantial fine but surely 3 days' community service is an insult.

It being the US I'm wondering if the victims will sue him in a civil case (would they win?)

Ignoring the derailer, the simplest way for the judicial system to cope with where to confine an enbie within a binary prison system, is to confine them in the prison for others of their sex. The alternative - which I expect will happen - is to avoid the issue entirely by suspending the sentence.

Called it.

nauticant · 14/04/2023 12:30

I did wonder whether acknowledgement of Brinton's other offences would transfer across but states are different legal jurisdictions (at a state level) and would a misdemeanor be too minor to be considered?

It would be good, now this court case is done, if the particular airport in question bars him using it. And then all the other airports too. I would hope if they are privately owned they can buy a restriction on who enters their facility because of anti-social behaviour.

Wouldn't it be glorious if every form of transport that takes luggage bans him? Trains, planes, buses, taxis, everything. Then he'd have to walk everywhere. I'd positively enjoy him wearing high heels then!

DeanVolecapeAKAelderberry · 14/04/2023 11:26

Presumably charging it as a misdemeanour means he isn't at risk from any three strikes rule (nice to be white and well-connected)? otoh, he will be a repeat offender at any subsequent hearing.

nauticant · 14/04/2023 10:47

A reasonably detailed report here:

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11971069/Samuel-Brinton-ex-DOE-employee-sentenced-180-days-Las-Vegas-airport-luggage-theft-case.html

As you'll be able to see, the Las Vegas charge was the easiest to deal with. Things might be more difficult in Minneapolis, and Houston could be very diffiuclut for him indeed. It's uncertain whether the last will proceed, although it should.
