Richards was on probation for two counts of assaulting a prison employee when he robbed a bank in Fraser earlier this year. He admitted to the probation violation Thursday in front of Washtenaw Trial Court Judge David Swartz and received the maximum sentence of two to five years in prison, court records show.
Last month, Richards told Swartz that he was too dangerous for prison and was assaulting state workers as a form of “violent dissension.” It was another bizarre court move for Richards, who has also sued Gov. Rick Snyder and the state of Michigan for not allowing him to possess pornographic materials while in jail.
He cited cruel and unusual punishment as his main reason for wanting access to porn while incarcerated. The lawsuit was dismissed, according to court records.
Richards also is a member of the Sovereign Citizen Movement, a right-wing anarchist group that has been designated an “extremist anti-government” group by the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
