Oath Keepers Founder's Estranged Wife Tells Why She Asked a Judge to Keep Ex in Jail (Feat. Tasha Adams)

When Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes first had a detention hearing following his seditious conspiracy indictment, his estranged wife Tasha Adams felt certain that he would be locked up and kept away from her and their six children. Then, Adams noticed an alarming report in Politico report suggesting that a federal judge appeared ready to let her ex loose. "I got a little panicked," Adams told Law&Crime in an interview with Law&Crime's podcast "Objections." "I really thought it was a done deal. Like, I didn't not expect any chance of bail whatsoever." In an extraordinary interview, Adams details why she told a judge she wants to keep Rhodes in jail. She also details her allegations of physical abuse, the history of the Oath Keepers, and her fears that Rhodes may harm her children and become a "Brownshirt" acting as an "unseen arm" of former President Donald Trump, if released.
