The Capitol Police officer who shot and killed Ashli Babbitt at the U.S. House Chamber during the events taking place at the Capitol on Jan. 6 will reveal his identity publicly in an interview Thursday.

The exclusive interview with NBC News' Lester Holt will be the first time the police officer, whose identity has not been revealed since the shooting, has spoken out publicly about shooting Babbitt while she and other protesters were outside the glass doors to the Speaker's Lobby at the Capitol, the network said in a statement Wednesday.

The officer will share his perspective on the events of Jan. 6, including the aftermath and the threats he has received, and the news, first reported by NBC News, that the Capitol Police has exonerated him for the use of force in the shooting.

“Byrd is a controversial figure with a record of mishandling firearms, including once leaving a loaded pistol in a Congressional Visitor Center bathroom. Roberts said Byrd's decision to fire his weapon on January 6 indicated his unfitness for duty.”— Julie Kelly 🇺🇸 (@julie_kelly2) August 26, 2021


Byrd also is the Pelosi henchman who told House members to put on gas masks minutes before he killed Ashli pic.twitter.com/Lp97zhInzV— Julie Kelly 🇺🇸 (@julie_kelly2) August 26, 2021

Byrd also is the Pelosi henchman who told House members to put on gas masks...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Supports the notion that the item he was pictured holding in the House chamber was a gas mask in its wrapper.

I watched the video of Byrd shooting Ashli Babbitt a number of times. He won’t be able to even begin to convince me that what he did was justified. I THINK the big question is whether or not other persons in the hierarchy above him, including Pelosi, created/fostered an atmosphere of encouragement that led to this murder.

The officer will share his perspective on the events..

"Nancy said it was 'open season on Conservatives,' so I got to kill White people.
Sadly, my gun jammed after the first shot.."

Without warning, he shot an unarmed woman who was teetering on a window frame.

He’s a real heeeero.

This man shot an unarmed woman. He has been “absolved” and protected by vile Biden Administration that he serves, now he is about to display himself on a propaganda network to gloat. Somehow, someway there must be justice for Ashli.

The Dems mismanage everything, from the Afghanistan withdrawal to failing to plan to protect the Capital knowing ANTIFA and others had a idea to cause trouble and then not having a plan to evacuate the royals. Everything they touch they screw up.
