Four videos released in the case against Grady Owens, who attacked officers with a skateboard after his whole family (including his grandparents) came to D.C. to support Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election. One of the body worn camera videos is more than 50 mins long.

"YOU FUCKING TRAITORS!"

Here's a clip where Grady Owens (holding the skateboard) makes an appearance.

The new Jan. 6 attack body worn camera footage is pretty haunting. I’m working on uploading it in full now.

In the meantime, here’s some high quality footage of one of the eastern Capitol rotunda door battles:

More rotunda battle footage here:

“TRAITORS!”

“OATH-BREAKERS!”

“We are not the left! We are not the godless left!”

“YOU’RE ONE OF US!”

“We’re on your side!”

What D.C. Metropolitan Police officers walked into on Jan. 6:

“They are not getting in this building. Let’s go!”

“Please back up!”

“I can’t buddy, you’ll have to kill me.”

Full footage still processing. In the meantime, some stills:

"We aren't here to hurt anything or anybody," said the Trump supporter seconds before another rioter came up up behind him and blasted the officer wearing the body camera with pepper spray.

Alright, here it is: 50+ minutes of raw police body camera footage from Jan. 6.

See something/someone I should know about? My DMs are open, and my Signal number is in my profile. #SeditionHunters

The full footage is a defense exhibit, but by making it public it’ll end up helping the government with the Jan. 6 investigation more broadly. Crowdsourcing might help connect some dots the fed might’ve missed.
