Thomas Sibick, who buried Officer Mike Fanone’s badge in his backyard after Jan. 6, is currently appearing before Judge Amy Berman Jackson.
Sibick now calls Jan. 6 "a disgrace to our nation that left a scar Trump is ultimately responsible for" and now says he loathes Trump. "He is not a leader and should be ostracized from any political future, what he honestly needs to do is go away!”
"The shame, dishonor, and regret endured are without question the worst emotions ever experienced. I disagree with what occurred that fateful day, especially the trauma suffered by Officer Michael Fanone, it is without question unconscionable.”

Tomorrow morning: A bond hearing for Trump fanatic Thomas Sibick, who buried D.C. Metropolitan Police Officer Mike Fanone’s badge in his backyard.

DOJ: "It was in the defendant’s own back yard that he buried Officer M.F.’s badge, and from the comfort of his parents’ home that he told some of his lies to law enforcement about his actions on January 6.” storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…
