Man who pinned D.C. police officer in door frame during Jan. 6 riot convicted of 7 felonies

A man who was seen crushing a Metropolitan Police Department officer in a door frame during the Jan. 6 Capitol riot has been convicted of nine offenses, seven of them felonies, the Justice Department said Tuesday. Patrick McCaughey III, 25, of Ridgefield, Connecticut, and two others were convicted on multiple charges in a bench trial by U.S. District Judge Trevor McFadden, an appointee of former President Trump.

Tristan Chandler Stevens, 26, of Pensacola, Florida, and David Mehaffie, 63, of Kettering, Ohio, were found guilty of five felony charges and two felony charges, respectively.

On Jan. 6, 2021, "the three defendants attempted to break into the building by directing other rioters, participating in heave-hos against the police line, using riot shields stolen from the Capitol Police, and assaulting three specific officers," the Justice Department said. "Mehaffie hung from an archway and shouted direction from above, and McCaughey and Stevens were key players in the melee below. McCaughey grabbed a riot shield and used it as a weapon. Even after officers finally cleared the tunnel area, the three defendants illegally remained on Capitol grounds."

I wonder how many counselors it took to get the Capitol police back to normal and out of their traumatic state after the J6 protest.

Most of the J6’ers are political prisoners of the Pelosi/Buy-Dung Gulag.

But some are just plain thugs.

“McCaughey, who has both U.S. and German citizenship, was unemployed and lived with his mother in Ridgefield, an affluent town along the New York border...”

At least he will not be living in his mommy’s basement.

Sounds more like ANTIFA thugs pretending to be patriots to escalate violence.

30 police officers were killed by BLM and Antifa during the Summer of Love 2020. Any arrests?

I think all of the January 6th violence with a false flag incident masterminded by the Dems and their FBI team. Why else would the Capital Police and Pelosi ignore the warning sent to them of the groups planning violence.

She’s a loser. Too CS and cowardly to clean up her own country in Puerto Rico.

Obama’s FIB boyz weren’t about to interfere with the BLM thugs and cop killers. They had “race cards.”

Is the tunnel area mentioned the tunnel where an unconscious Rosanne Boyland was beaten by police prior to her death and where Victoria White cowered and begged for mercy while she was repeatedly beaten by police? Anyone who punched a police officer in an attempt to rescue either woman has nothing but respect from me.

The heroes in blue are bravest when they have a defenseless victim; hence the obsession with disarming the populace.
