They are facing trials on the trumped-up charge of "interfering with certain protective functions" of the government for their heroic effort to prevent the transfer of the Venezuelan Embassy to a minority leader illegally appointed by the U.S. government as President of Venezuela. This is a misdemeanor charge that carries a maximum of one-year imprisonment and a $100,000 fine each. The judge has already denied them the ability to present vital evidence in their defense. During the hearing, she referred to the embassy protectors as a "gang," and stated that the facts supported their guilt. She made it clear a trial will result in their conviction, and promptly made rulings that will ensure that outcome.
