The Capitol Police officer, who shot and killed demonstrator Ashli Babbitt during the Jan. 6, 2021, protest, is set to be promoted from lieutenant to captain.
Roll Call reported that Michael Byrd's planned promotion was announced by police in an internal memo.
Babbitt, 35, was fatally shot while attempting to climb through the broken window of a barricaded door leading to the office lobby of then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi inside the Capitol.
Roll Call noted that Babbitt, an Air Force veteran, was not armed.
The Justice Department made the decision not to bring criminal charges against Byrd, the outlet said. A probe by the Capitol Police's Office of Professional Responsibility found Byrd's conduct was "lawful and within Department policy."
In February, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga. said she wanted to use her position on the House Oversight Committee to investigate claims of "civil rights abuses" committed against Trump supporters arrested on Jan. 6 and review Babbitt's shooting.
Also being promoted by Capitol Police is Caroline Edwards, who testified before a House select committee about the violence she saw during the protest.
Edwards recalled how she was knocked unconscious and described the environment at the Capitol that day as a "war zone." She will be promoted to sergeant.
According to a police spokesperson, the department doesn't discuss individual personnel matters. The police representative added promotions "were well earned across the department to include multiple captains, lieutenants, and sergeants."

“Is anyone here surprised? “
No.
People in the USA do not live in a Constitutional Republic of the rule of law, and Boomer Cons need to stop pretending.
In Canada, we know that a Charter of Rights written by Pierre Trudeau isn’t going to protect us from tyrannical leftism.
The US Constitution didn’t protect Ashley Babbitt, the people at Waco, Vicki Weaver, or the people protesting the 2020 election fraud any more than the Canadian Charter of Rights protected the truckers trampled by Mounties on horseback.
US conservatives need to wake up, realize what time it is, and start planning and building for the post-Constitution order.
He should have been relegated to the rubber gun squad a log time ago! His Melanometric Privilege gave him a sispensation to murder Ashli Babbitt, a white female and unarmed Air Force veteran. The bloodstained earth cries out for justice!
and McCarthy told Ashlie’s mother he never viewed the event but will look into it.
Not sure which color he represents? the blue donkey? the red deepstate, or the yellow chinese.
Of course he was. The left wants us dead.
Well worth the time - makes it obvious why the USA has gone to hell.

After watching that guy tell what he knows I’m shocked and even before watching I was convince we have powerful evil forces here but the scale of it, the depth and the pure evil are stunning.
DJT I’m sure is well aware of what he’s up against - what WE are up against. We need to pray...it will take more than human effort to turn this around.
Nope. The regime must reward their foot soldiers.
In your face. In OUR faces.
He should be arrested and tried for murder.
There is no statute of limitations for murder... Let’s hope a new prosecutor has the balls to look into this
Shoot a completely unarmed white woman to death and get promoted.
Anyone else tries that and you’ll be put in one of their cages for life.
Had he shot and killed a liberal protestor he would have been summarily fired and/or imprisoned.
Shoot unarmed conservative white woman, get promoted.
” Capitol Officer Who Shot Ashli Babbitt Promoted”
Per orders from Queen Nazi Pelosi
There is no statute of limitations on murder, and he was never charged or tried, so he can be tried and convicted at any point in the future if the DemonRats fail at election stealing.
