In November, TGP’s Cara Castronuova posted an exclusive letter on The Gateway Pundit from DC Gitmo political prisoner Lonnie Coffman, a 71-year-old Vietnam veteran locked up at the DC Gitmo.
Lonnie also appeared on Greg Kelly’s show on Newsmax earlier that week.
Until recently Lonnie Coffman was being held unconstitutionally with no bond in Washington DC for attending the rally in Washington DC on January 6th. Lonnie was later moved to a detention facility in Pennsylvania.
Lonnie described what happened in his letter to The Gateway Pundit. The FBI used the alleged bomb threat at the DNC to rummage through cars and Lonnie’s truck. The investigators found firearms and jars of gasoline that he carries with him. The FBI fabricated their findings and described the jars of gas as “Molotov cocktails”.
According to those close to Coffman, his truck was searched on January 6th by police in a roundup of vehicles in the vicinity of the mysterious pipe bomb that was found at the Democratic National Committee. “They found guns and rifles in his backseat,” said his friend Jonathan Mellis. “Guns he always keeps in there and jars of gasoline that were years old. He’s from the backwoods of Alabama, this is normal there.”
According to Mellis, the government is overcharging his friend who has a public defender and desperately wants to get out of DC Jail and back to his regular medical care at the Veterans Hospital.

According to Coffman’s Indictment papers,
“On or about January 6, 2021, within the District of Columbia, the defendant LONNIE LEROY COFFMAN knowingly possessed a firearm, namely a destructive device, that is, eleven Molotov cocktails and any combination of parts designed and intended for use in converting any device into a Molotov cocktail, not registered to him in the National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record.”
“It is absurd what they will concoct,” said Mellis. “This poor man. It was jars of old gasoline he kept in his truck from home and they are calling it Malotov cocktails! It’s so wrong. Lonnie is the sweetest old man you would ever hope meet, he would not or could not hurt a fly. If you met this gentle old man you would fall in love with him. We call him Pops in here, he is life a grandfather to us and we look after him. What they are doing to this man is terrible, somebody has to save him. If he is in here for even a few more years that is a life sentence for this poor man.”
It should be noted that three Antifa domestic terrorists were stopped by police on January 6th and lied about having a gun in their vehicle — These three Antifa terrorists who drove to Washington DC on January 6th to cause chaos and violence were released and allowed to drive back home to Michigan that day despite lying to police about a firearm in their vehicle.
Antifa got off that day. Lonnie Coffman was just sentenced to 46 months in federal prison.
The fake news media continues to this day to lie about Lonnie and the items in his vehicle. Lonnie was unarmed when he went to the protest to support President Trump.
On Friday fellow January 6 political prisoner Jake Lang called The Gateway Pundit to share this sobering news. According to Lang the leftist judge lectured Coffman from the bench. These people are heartless.
