In the upper left frame, the bracelet appears to be on the right wrist of the holder of the gun that shoots Ashli Babbitt. In the lower pictures, the same or similar bracelet appears to be on the right wrist of Capitol Police Officer David Bailey.

I was under the impression that someone was trying to imply that the bracelet was somehow indicative of membership in or allegiance to "BLM" < spits >.

Now, I get the feeling that someone is trying to use the similarity in appearance of the bracelets in different images to determine the identity of the shooter.

Those are two different issues, and more attention should be paid to differentiating between them.

It is the latter.

I recall people using his social media to try to link him to BLM, but not through the bracelet. Even if it is some kind of symbol, the fact that he was photographed many times wearing it means that it is a part of his wardrobe, like a watch or rings.

I mention the comparison to OJ Simpson and the size 12 Bruno Magli shoes. It can't be proven that the size 12 Bruno Magli shoeprints found in the blood at the house was worn by Simpson, but he was photographed previously wearing Bruno Magli shoes.

Then there is the question of how many people wear Bruno Magli shoes, how many of them wear size 12 shoes, and how many of them would have the occasion to be at Nicole Simpson's house?

So there is also the question of how many people wear a distinctive bracelet similar to the one shown in the pictures, how many of them have a gun, and how many of them are permitted to have a gun inside the Capitol building?

They are using the same personal identification methods to ID people who breached the Capitol as those who are using the bracelet to ID Bailey. I watched one of those engaged in the identification process explain what clues they used in their process. That bracelet is unique enough to verify it was Bailey, who was inside that chamber with the other Capitol Police.
