“After several hours of attempting to remove demonstrators from Capital grounds, at approximately 1800 hours, CDU officials increased their efforts by broadcasting over a loud speaker that the demonstrators were in violation of the mayor’s curfew order. They continued to broadcast that message for approximately one hour. At approximately 1920 hours, a combined effort involving MPD CDU and DC National Guard troops began to encircle the remaining crowd, located on the grounds of the U.S. Capitol Building at the U.S. Capitol Visitor Center, so as to begin mass arrest procedures for the remaining demonstrators who refused to leave.
District of Columbia Mayor Muriel Bowser declared a public emergency in the District of Columbia (Mayor’s Order 2021-001, pursuant to 24 DCMR § 2203.2), which resulted in a District-wide curfew commencing at 6:00 p.m. on Wednesday, January 6, 2012 and ending at 6:00 a.m. on Thursday January 7, 2021.
At approximately 1925 hours (7:25p.m.), I was assisting escorting individuals past an MPD line when I noticed a man, later identified by his Maryland driver’s license as CHRISTOPHER ALBERTS, to be slow in responding to orders to leave the premises. As I approached ALBERTS from his rear, I noticed a bulge on ALBERTS’ right hip.
Based on my training and experience, I recognized the bulge was consistent with that of a hand gun. While pushing ALBERTS towards the line, I tapped the bulge with my baton and felt a hard object that I immediately recognized to be a firearm. At the time, ALBERTS was also wearing a bullet-proof vest and carrying a backpack. At that point, I told two MPD officers next to him that ALBERTS had a firearm on his person. ALBERTS, apparently hearing that, immediately tried to flee, but I was able to detain him with the help of two other officers.”

The Judge is. I don’t know what I was thinking about. The Judge was supposed to be neutral and independent of the Prosecutor. Again, I don’t know what I was thinking about. Thanks foe reminding me.
They made him say Biden is the rightfully elected President! We are now officially a totalitarian state.
hey Mr. Moss we are a constitutional republic not a democracy
Nobody was caught inside the capital building with a gun. Looks like 11 people were arrested on weapons charges that were associated with the capital protest. A lot of this will likely not stick in court as clearly an abuse of their civil rights with illegal searches etc.

At his arraignment, prosecutors said he was found with a shotgun, a semiautomatic rifle, a handgun, and more than 1,000 rounds of ammunition upon his arrest and said more charges could be coming soon. The guns were cited by the judge in his decision to deny Fisher bail.
