The apparent head of the radical transgender cult linked to the murders of six people, including US Border Patrol agents, told a Maryland judge last week that he was suing access to vegan food behind the bar, saying, “I've done nothing wrong.”
“If you can't answer me, I might die,” 34-year-old Jack Amadeus Lasota, who passes through “Ziz,” told Judge Erich Bean at a bail hearing in Maryland's Alleghany County District Court on Feb. 18. San Francisco Chronicle. “We need a prison where we are ordered to go on a vegan diet. It's more important than this hearing.”
During the hearing, Lasota said at another point he would release him on bail.
He went on to say that he could be in a “fair paranoia” due to the lack of vegan options at the Alleghany County Detention Center, and that he is homeless so he is not a flight risk.
