An Austin, Texas, man who was charged in connection with the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol has died in a motorcycle collision, multiple news outlets reported Tuesday.
In a statement, the Austin Police Department said Joseph Cable Barnes died in a crash on June 12.
The department said officers responded to a call where Barnes, who was riding his motorcycle, collided with a car after police say he ran a red light.
Barnes, 35, was pronounced dead at the scene and the other driver was transported to a nearby hospital to be treated for minor injuries, according to the statement.
According to the official complaint, Barnes was seen on video screaming, “This is our house! This is our country! This is our country!” during the Jan. 6 attack at the Capitol.
Witnesses were able to identify Barnes to authorities, with one saying they visited Barnes at his home multiple times, and another confirming that they attended the same high school. Barnes reportedly worked as a commercial real estate agent.
Barnes was arrested by federal authorities in March and charged with the obstruction of official proceedings, according to the complaint.
According to a Newsweek report, an online obituary referred to Barnes as "a patriot" who "loved our country and those who served to protect our freedom.” It also shared that he was an avid painter who focused on painting flags.
In a Twitter post, BuzzFeed reporter Zoe Tillman shared that the U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia was notified of Barnes’s death.
My guess is that he had enough money to put up a strong defense.
The capper will be that it will be categorized as a “covid death”
Did he commit suicide?
“The department said officers responded to a call where Barnes, who was riding his motorcycle, collided with a car after police say he ran a red light. “
One less domestic terrorist the FBI doesn’t have to persecute.
Another readily available on demand Democrt voter.
Arkancide?
Ride into glory, Patriot.
When the time comes they’ll dig him up and put him on trial.
Just like Cromwell...
“Did he commit suicide?”
Several times.
If the facts are as reported, he was at fault in the collision, which makes it the opposite of that motorcycle fatality a few years ago in South Dakota, where a Republican politician went through a stop sign and killed a motorcyclist.
What did he know about Nanzi’s laptop, and when did he know it?
Why was he spared the DC Gulag? Of the over 500 arrests how many are out on bail?
Guarantee the fraud government will try him posthumously.
This is a crime? 🤔
If someone ran a red light and hit him? Maybe. But apparently he ran the red light and hit the other car. Hard to make that a murder case.
