He was just the latest test for the Secret Service as he successfully completed the first part of his mission – to jump the White House fence.
But unlike his predecessor who successfully jumped the fence then casually went for a jog around the first floor of the White House, Dominic Adesanya was unable to complete his jog as he was attacked feet away from the fence by the Secret Service dogs.
Today, Dominic had his court appearance and the very same voices that told him to jump the fence told him to scream for help in court.
Dominic Adesanya, 23, of Bel Air, Maryland, began screaming after he was ordered to undergo psychiatric evaluation and treatment for the next 45 days.
Adesanya has been charged with two federal offenses: unlawfully entering the restricted grounds of the White House and harming two law enforcement dogs that were released to apprehend him.
Don’t “do this to me,” Adesanya yelled at the end of a five-minute court proceeding as deputy marshals grabbed him in an effort to remove him from the courtroom.
He screamed that he was the victim of “a trap” and “a scheme.”
Deputies succeeded in pushing him through the doorway at the front of the court, but he started screaming for help from the other side and a loud crash could be heard from behind the closed door.
“Somebody help me please,” he said. Deputies could be heard telling him to “calm down” and to “relax, relax, relax.”
The brief court session was to have been a detention hearing. Magistrate Judge John Facciola announced that Adesanya was “presently incompetent” and would be placed in the custody of the Bureau of Prisons for psychiatric treatment. Facciola set the next court date for Dec. 22.
Who knows, maybe he was put up to it.
