Wednesday, January 13th, 2010Summary: In short, Ed Brown was found competent to participate in his sentencing and the judge sent him off to spend 444 months in federal prison. Not that it matters, but this prison term is in addition to the 63 months from the tax-related case. Even if he qualifies for the maximum time off for [...]
Domestic Goddess vs. Domestic Terrorist: the Sentencing of Elaine Brown
Saturday, October 3rd, 2009Yesterday, “Elaine Alice: of the Family Brown, spelled in upper case and lower case letters†was sentenced to 35 years in federal prison. Keep in mind that that’s 35 years in addition to the 63-month sentence from the earlier, income tax-related charges. Even if she’s a model prisoner, and earns the maximum amount of “time [...]
Brown Trial: July 7, 2009: Ed Brown takes the stand
Wednesday, July 8th, 2009Whew! It’s just been one of those days. The mystery of the elevator was solved, the prosecution rested their case after two witnesses, another juror has dropped out, leaving only one alternate, and it’s raining again in New Hampshire. Oh, did I forget to mention that Ed Brown took the stand? Silly me. Witness Jamie [...]
Brown Trial, July 6, 2009: The Elevator Shaft Mystery
Monday, July 6th, 2009The prosecution zipped through 14 witnesses today, mostly on the subject of explosives and firearms. The jury must be getting numb from the steady parade of freaky stuff designed to kill other human beings. There were at least 16 rifles (including those three massive 50 caliber monsters), three handguns, 21 pipe bombs, a couple dozen [...]

Brown Trial: Thursday, July 02, 2009
Thursday, July 2nd, 2009In a nutshell, today really sucked for Ed and Elaine Brown. The prosecution’s case didn’t just take shape, it sprouted wings and flew. The jury learned that: The marshals bent over backwards to ensure a peaceful end to the standoff Zoe the dog is an nice puppy and a thief The undercover marshals who eventually [...]

It’s June 30, 2009 and New Hampshire tax deniers Ed and Elaine Brown are finally having their day in court. Over the next two weeks, they’ll learn what fate awaits them as a result [...]
Oh Danny Boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
Wednesday, October 29th, 2008Or in Danny Riley’s case, I guess that would be the pipe bombs calling. The final Brown supporter was sentenced yesterday to what is practically a life sentence — 36 years. Even if Danny decided to become a model prisoner and qualified for the maximum amount of time off for good behavior, he wouldn’t be free until he’s 72 [...]
Rebel without a Clue
Monday, October 27th, 2008Sorry for the delay in posting about Reno Gonzalez’ sentencing but I got a little distracted this last month. Fortunately, an ace reporter named Margot Sanger-Katz was at the scene, and she made sure that you all got the big news by the following day. While it’s too late for Reno to make smart choices in [...]
Reno Gonzalez will be sentenced tomorrow
Thursday, September 25th, 2008Welcome back to the Red Crayons blog! I just returned tonight to the land of a thousand Dunkin Donuts shops and minimum speed limit signs – that’s right, New Hampshire. Lots of trees, lots of granite, lots of Freestate Flakes. Cirino “Reno” Gonzalez is scheduled to be sentenced tomorrow morning at 10:00 and I’m in town [...]
