A point of difference between some participants in the J6 Field Hearing was over whether the full January 6 footage should be released to the public.

Congresswoman @RepMTG says "January 6 tapes, if they were to get out - and I support releasing them - I've said it all along. But if they do get out, Sedition Hunters will come."

Citing his experience as a Sheriff, @RepTroyNehls says "I believe Ashli Babbitt was murdered that day."
"I know a little bit about use of force, and what disturbed me about that investigation into Lt. Byrd is that it never went to a grand jury."
"That shooting should go to a… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

On the full release of the J6 tapes, Congressman @DrPaulGosar says "A picture is worth a thousand words."
"They're all going to come after us regardless, so it seems to me like we aught to be making this big push and maybe turn the tide."
"The videotapes gotta come out."

As the J6 Field Hearing ended, @BrandonStraka testified to another grievance:
He describes that he believes J6 defendants should have their case jurisdiction released from DC, but also sentencing jurisdiction, meaning probation is overseen by DC judges rather than home state.
