While prosecutors successfully concealed the identities of most FBI informants planted in the Proud Boys, newly obtained surveillance video shows the movement of one Proud Boy informant on January 6.
Michael Alan Jones is a convicted felon with a history of firearms, drug and statutory rape charges. But rather than spend years in prison—more on that in a future piece—in 2019, Jones suddenly became interested in so-called “white supremacist” and “neo-Nazi” groups including the Proud Boys and Patriot Front.
And according to a recent article on Raw Story, an online publication that tracks the activity of those groups, Jones was an FBI informant. “Raw Story has independently confirmed that Jones has in the past worked as a paid FBI informant,” reporter Jordan Greene disclosed last month. “Lira Gallagher, a spokesperson for the FBI Washington Field Office, declined to comment.”
Jones, now 25, participated in several Proud Boys demonstrations leading up to the events of January 6. For example, in November 2020, Jones joined the Proud Boys for a “Stop the Steal” protest that “served as a regional feeder event for a Dec. 12, 2020 protest against the election outcome that would come to be seen as a dress rehearsal for the Jan. 6 insurrection,” Raw Story reported last month.
