Guns seized from white supremacist Misch after he denies illegally possessing magazines

BENNINGTON — About a month ago, self-professed white supremacist Max Misch crashed a press conference where Vermont Attorney General TJ Donovan said he wouldn’t be bringing any charges against him, or anyone else, for racial harassment against former Vermont state representative Kiah Morris.

On Thursday, the attorney general was in a Bennington courtroom — about a mile from where that press conference took place — filing two misdemeanor charges against Misch for allegedly possessing high-capacity magazines outlawed in Vermont last year.

Misch, standing in that courtroom about 20 feet from Donovan, pleaded not guilty to the two counts against him.

He was released on conditions set by Judge William Cohen, including that he not possess any weapons and that he stay away from Morris and her husband, James Lawton, as well as Lisa Shapiro, Misch’s ex-wife.

In Vermont - we are loathe to lock up anyone.

I doubt he serves a day. Kiah Morris was right to try to protect herself by resigning. (Which says only disgraceful things about the criminal justice system in this state)
