[News] Fakecel Nathan Larson indicted in federal court last week, faces three life sentences if convicted | Incels.is - Involuntary Celibate

Larson also has state charges in Fresno County, California and Denver County, Colorado to contend with, but it seems that the fedcels at the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of California are moving at a pretty fast pace. The grand jury indictment was filed last Thursday and is...

Background

Last year, @Leucosticte travelled from his home in Virginia in an attempt to abduct a 12-year-old Californian femoid he met on his website, which will remain unnamed and has now been seized by federal law enforcement.

At 2:30 am on December 14th, 2020, Nathan Larson stopped by the home in a vehicle and left a minute later with the femoid. The next morning, the femoid's mother contacted the Fresno Police Department, who after interviewing one of the femoid's friends and a ticketing agent at Fresno airport, eventually traced both Larson and the femoid onto Frontier flight #494. You can guess what happens next: that same afternoon, Denver PD and the FBI intercepted Larson during their layover at Denver airport. The femoid was returned to her parents. A search warrant executed on his devices found child pornography. Larson now faces five federal charges, that if convicted, would result in a maximum sentence of three life sentences plus fifty years. He plead not guilty and is currently being held at the Fresno County jail awaiting trial.

Latest legal developments

While incarcerated, Nathan Larson wrote two handwritten letters to the court asking that he be allowed to represent himself pro se and appear in court in person without a face covering. On April 21st, the court scheduled another hearing on April 28th on the issue of his competency to represent himself. Larson then wrote a 3rd letter asking that he be allowed to represent himself at said hearing.

The court denied Larson's motions on April 30th and scheduled another hearing for June.

Commentary

I mean, let's be honest, Larson is probably going to spend the rest of his life behind bars, so this is the last chance he will get to put up a political show.

What is interesting is how normies and cucks continually tie Larson to the incel community even though he was not 1) an incel by any definition of the word, 2) more of a far-right libertarian whackjob than the archetypal traditionalist conservative incel.

One can represent themselves in a criminal case if the trial judge agrees that he or she is acting knowingly. See Faretta v. California (1975).

Basically next month a hearing will be held to see if Nathan Larson understands the risks of refusing the aid of an attorney and is mentally competent enough to represent himself.

i figured there would be such a clause.
is there more information on why faretta was banned from being his own lawyer? was he retarded or crazy?

nathan larson was in politics so surely he understands the law and is mentally competent as shown by his verbal intelligence if maybe not common sense.
maybe the dumbness of his last action is swaying their opinion but even then who knows if he was trying to martyr himself or not.

it'll probably take at least another year before trial starts though, larson wants to drag this out

 

[starcrapoo]

He reminds me exactly of Mr. Prince white charming aka Stephen Paddock.

Both Paddock and Larson had filipina wives that they could go home to everyday, fuck, and talk to.

Yet to them thats wasn't really ascension and decide to throw it all away. Literally.

If you're a white supremacist, having an asian wife is only a confirmation of your subhumanity. No matter how hard they openly cope, they know deep inside.

Have mods banned naming it BTW?

I don't even know what to call it since it rotated so much, I see to recall NC/FB/R-y

Kind of wonder how hapa daughter will turn out, I would be willing to take her out for dinner once she's in her 20s.

NGL jealous he got to have sex with a girl like that.

When Larson was initially extradited from Denver, CO to Fresno, CA he was being sought on state charges for the same crime. Those charges have since been withdrawn since the prosecution of Larson is proceeding at the federal level; he is still being held at the same jail but by the U.S. Marshals Service and not Fresno PD.

That it appears twice is probably a data entry mistake. You know how slow government work is.

If it was a sting operation then the affidavit would clearly state as such, but it wasn't, there was indeed a 12-year-old femoid involved in the incident.

 

[Joey Cope Em]

a 12-year-old Californian femoid he met on his website, which will remain unnamed and has now been seized by federal law enforcement.

I like how you used the word seized like goods or an object instead of "rescued" because it's only a rescue if it's male and alive.

While incarcerated, Nathan Larson wrote two handwritten letters to the court asking that he be allowed to represent himself pro se and appear in court in person without a face covering. On April 21st, the court scheduled another hearing on April 28th on the issue of his competency to represent himself. Larson then wrote a 3rd letter asking that he be allowed to represent himself at said hearing.

If a man is in a law court, he should be allowed to speak if he wants. Can he trust a lawyer?

you have link for affidavit PDF? I only saw the record of arrest

anyway I'm skeptical it was kidnapping, Larson's attractive enough that it's feasible this was voluntary accompaniment so the move to have it reduced to lesser charges coudl be valid

doesn't mean it will stick of course, there was also good reason to reduce the Chauvin charges to lesser ones but that MAYBE gets fixed in appeal

might not be able to trust one but I sort of understand the reason why they wouldn't want some mental retard ditching a lawyer and arguing their own case
the idea you need to present some level of competence does make sense
OTOH that could easily be exploited to stop someone mounting a good defense and having a bad attorney throw it

For an adult to take a child they met online to the other side of the country is kidnapping.

Wishful thinking. Even if kidnapping charges are dropped, transportation and coercion/enticement charges each carry a maximum life sentence, and he isn't getting out of those. The evidence is overwhelming. He did this (ran his forums) as openly as possible on the clearweb.

Yeah, that's not how it works. Your attorney is a legal professional. A layman representing themselves in a major criminal trial is going to get destroyed.

Don't think there is any country in the world where it would be legal to do what Larson did.

Eh you sure?

Just that what occurred may not have been a kidnapping. But unlawful transport.

It has to be without consent, though I guess perhaps there could be some kind of "statutory kidnapping" law on the books I'm not aware of.

If that's the case then how is it not statutory kidnapping to take a kid anywhere though?

Even if kidnapping charges are dropped, transportation and coercion/enticement charges each carry a maximum life sentence, and he isn't getting out of thos

Do you recall the specific numbers on the lawbooks so I can read about them? Not even sure what state book he's being charged under TBH

Don't think there is any country in the world where it would be legal to do what Larson did.

It's not entirely clear what he did to, but apparently he and the girl were in Denver together when arrested.

Age of consent in 12 in Sudan so probably would've been fine there. Apparently it's 9 in Yemen if you're married

 

[PPEcel]

Pretty fucking sure.

Age of consent in 12 in Sudan so probably would've been fine there. Apparently, it's 9 in Yemen if you're married

The weight of the evidence against him is overwhelming. He encouraged her to send explicit photos of herself online. As far as the U.S. government is concerned, that's producing and receiving child pornography. To put it in the mildest terms, he, a random stranger, enticed a child to run away with him without anyone else's knowledge. The age of consent is irrelevant here.

If that's the case then how is it not statutory kidnapping to take a kid anywhere though?

Yes, because this is clearly a case of "just taking a kid somewhere", what the hell is this kind of reasoning?

Federal case. Read the indictment.

Please link me to a .gov page explaining the actual name/terms of the charge and to the indictment, this isn't being presented clearly.

The weight of the evidence against him is overwhelming. He encouraged her to send explicit photos of herself online.

What specifically did he say?
Also at that time is there evidence he actually knew how old she was?
Haven't actually seen pics of this girl but I know there are cases where old 12s can resemble young 18s.

As far as the U.S. government is concerned, that's producing and receiving child pornography.

I understand "receiving" but if she took pics herself wouldn't she be the producer?
There could be additional charge for "aiding and abetting" producing though, kind of like if you hire a hitman even if you don't commit a murder yourself you're still faciliating the crime.

To put it in the mildest terms, he, a random stranger, enticed a child to run away with him without anyone else's knowledge.

I'm not understanding how you can call him a "random stranger".

Wasn't the gist of this that they were chatting for weeks/months on Rapey leading up to this?

One solid defense I could see here is the impression I got of that place was it was a ridiculous LARPfest where guys were all "yeah I'm gonna rape over nine thousand newborn babies" for shock value rather than genuine expression of intent.

Given that atmosphere, I could see Larson actually thinking that anyone claiming to be an underage girl was just some LARPer and he was engaged in a RP session without an actual safe word.

The age of consent is irrelevant here.
Yes, because this is clearly a case of "just taking a kid somewhere", what the hell is this kind of reasoning?

I don't believe I used that phrase so I'm not sure why you are.

I'm just wanting to know the name/terms of the charge and an explanation of what he's alleged to have done to fit those parameters, which I'm still waiting on.

That makes him a random stranger. I've been chatting with people here for years, with a small number of exceptions I have no idea who they are IRL.

Yeah, but roleplayers don't ask for and upload actual child pornography. Nor do they fly across the country and ask a 12-year-old to wear a wig and pretend to be disabled so they can travel together without drawing suspicion.

Mainstream normies consider all of us to be human garbage, so you're not exactly making an endearing argument.

Look, I defended Larson's freedom of expression on multiple occasions over the first half of 2020 when his website had all of 3 members and all of them were just being edgy, but this really is just stupid. I mean, how stupid do you have to be to think that you could even get away with it? Oh, I'm just going to take this random kid across the country. Her parents definitely aren't going to look for her. The gazillion cameras that are present in every airport post-9/11 definitely aren't going to catch me and the kid and put 2+2 together.

Larson knew how old she was and what she looked like.

These three are helping to build a picture, thanks.

Given that the girl's real name is protected, knowing she used the alias "Ewwieme" is helpful since we can call her that.

What stands out to me on page 9 (10 of 15) is the 15 nov 2020 comment, Nathan mentions "standards for men and women" which I think are terms which imply adulthood.

Regarding the November 30th comment any idea wtf "Faerie.su" was supposed to be? I know .su was one of the seven domain extensions that Rapey had cycled through (not sure in what order) so was this another of his sites I hadn't known about?

Without actually seeing what was posted in the thread "bro-I-have-makeup.26" it's hard to say if she looked like she could've been above age of consent.

30th is also when Ewwie mentions to him "I would be willing to run away with you" which sounds like a natural counter to a "kidnapping" interpretation. Clearly doesn't sound like forced abduction.

December 1st he says "I saw you're turning 13 soon" however which SEEMS like an acknowledgement of her being 12, unless of course it's a typo and he meant to type 23, in which case he would've thought she was 22.

Even if 13 was what he intended to write, there's still the question of whether it's all just a massive LARP to him. It was really dififcult to tell when Larson was shitposting wher truth ended and fiction began.

Dec 2nd Larson says to her "someone reported an underage nude on faerie" which makes it sound like he was an admin for that site.

As far as U.S. law is concerned, if you ask a minor to send you nudes, that is sexual exploitation.

I think only if you first established they were a minor.

A technicality in these pages is when Larson expresses desire to see her nude it's BEFORE stating her age. After he mentions the age you don't see any more requests.

That makes him a random stranger. I've been chatting with people here for years, with a small number of exceptions I have no idea who they are IRL.

Not knowing someone's IRL dox doesn't mean they're a stranger or random IMO. We should come up with some other term for that.

Yeah, but roleplayers don't ask for and upload actual child pornography.

re the 'upload' part is that referencing his Dec 2nd "babydoll do you wanna see come CP" question?

Again though: how do I know he wasn't just posting some 2D loli which normies call CP?

That's the thing about it being illegal to view, civilians trying to assess the case can't actually look at all the evidence to see if it's being interpreted fairly.

Like for all I know the "CP" he refers to is that comic of "Hiloli Clinton" getting fucked in a limo by Trump or some crap.

Nor do they fly across the country and ask a 12-year-old to wear a wig and pretend to be disabled so they can travel together without drawing suspicion.

Transcripts of that part?

Look, I defended Larson's freedom of expression on multiple occasions over the first half of 2020 when his website had all of 3 members and all of them were just being edgy, but this really is just stupid. I mean, how stupid do you have to be to think that you could even get away with it?

Larson seems like a very intelligent guy TBH, at least at times, I think horniness and orbiting tend to make one reckless and optimistic, I guess?

Oh, I'm just going to take this random kid across the country. Her parents definitely aren't going to look for her.

To be fair, some parents are shitty and don't put much of an effort into parenting, so that would depend on what he was told about them?

TBH it seems like he makes a fair point about that, defense should have equal access to tech and databases and real-time research as prosecution.

I guess their counterpoint is something like "you just want to get on the internet to cause drama and solicit CP from more girls".

Seems like a catch 22 situation though, it's like essentially they're prohibiting people accused of internet crimes of competently representing themselves which infringes on their rights.

On a hearing on the 30th.

Um, whether Larson is allowed to proceed pro se or not, he's not getting internet access. I don't think the court's decision to prevent him from proceeding pro se during the competency hearing has infringed on Larson's rights.

Larson has every right to an attorney. He has no presumption to proceed pro se.

That's why it's important to communicate with your attorney. Enthusiastic or not, they are professionally obligated to defend their clients to the best of their ability.

Going it alone is always a bad idea in a major criminal trial. This isn't a parking ticket.
