Capitol attack defendant Lisa Anne Homer was arrested in Colorado Springs on Friday. The feds found a profile image of her wearing the same "LIONS NOT SHEEP” hat that she wore on Jan. 6. Case unsealed today.

Not linking to the FBI affidavit at the moment because it contains a lot of unredacted personal info, but here’s a rundown:

The Google search warrant gives them her movements inside the Capitol, and they get her flight records.

They spot her in the New York Times Jan. 6 video on the front lines of the attack:

They pull these images from Albert Ciarpelli’s cell phone:

Then, after she puts her goggles and helmet on, they match what she was wearing outside the Capitol with what she was wearing inside the Capitol.

The feds say her Instagram features "an emblem that your affiant believes is associated with the Proud Boys group” and that she posted “Let’sblowshitup” on Oct. 2020.
