Danny “DJ" Rodriguez was arrested two weeks ago for electroshocking Officer Fanone. He was identified by online sleuths in January and in a HuffPost story in February. huffpost.com/entry/daniel-j…
The FBI website has been updated to reflect the arrest of Head and Young.
Still wanted in connection with the brutal attack on Officer Fanone:
NEW: Schaffer pleaded guilty to both counts. Said he did so because he is in fact guilty, and judge finds he did so voluntarily. huffpost.com/entry/guitaris…
In opinion keeping Jeffrey Sabol detained, Judge Emmet Sullivan write it's “important” to determine "to what extent President Trump’s words and actions led to the violent and shocking storming of the U.S. Capitol” but that “President Trump’s culpability is not before this Court."
Sullivan says Sabol showed “clear disregard for the law, an aversion to the fundamental tenants of our democracy, and a willingness to act violently when he believes he is 'fighting tyranny,' all of which indicate that he poses a danger to the community.” courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…
Sullivan says Sabol acted on "what appears to be a sincerely held, but tremendously misguided, belief that he was acting valiantly and patriotically to fight against a tyrannical government that ‘stole' a presidential election.”

Sen. Grassley says Clarke is “very controversial,” but says he commends her for “being forthcoming with the committee.” Calls her a “capable attorney” but then says he has question about whether she can be nonpartisan.
Grassley previewed a focus on the question of whether Clarke wants to “defund the police,” and cited this 2020 piece she wrote, which has a headline much less nuanced than the actual op-ed. newsweek.com/i-prosecuted-p…
The number of Capitol suspects posted on the FBI’s website is on the verge of topping 300. By my count, more than 220 of the suspects are still at large.
That doesn’t even include the addition suspects whose photos are not featured on the FBI’s website.
The feds have arrested “Sam with InfoWars dot com,” aka Samuel Montoya.
"The director of the Congressional press galleries within the Senate Press office did a name check on Samuel Christopher Montoya and confirmed that no one by that name has Congressional press credentials as an individual or via any other organizations.” justice.gov/usao-dc/case-m…
That’s a line that could get blurry in other cases. Not sure every single legitimate journalist who entered the Capitol necessarily had a congressional press pass.
