Asheville man charged for actions in Jan. 6 riot at US Capitol An Asheville man is facing felony and misdemeanor charges for his actions in the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol. https://www.wral.com/story/asheville-man-charged-for-actions-in-jan-6-riot-at-us-capitol/20928521/ An Asheville man is facing felony and misdemeanor charges for his actions in the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol. The U.S. Department of Justice reports Nathan Baer, 43, was charged with felony offense of obstruction of law enforcement during a civil disorder and misdemeanor offenses of entering or remaining on restricted grounds without lawful authority to do so, disorderly or disruptive conduct in a restricted building or grounds and disorderly conduct in a Capitol building. Baer was arrested in Asheville and made his first court appearance Monday in western North Carolina. The DOJ said video footage from Jan. 6, 2021, shows Baer inside the U.S. Capitol's lower west tunnel entrance around 2:50 p.m. "While inside this tunnel, court records say that Baer worked with other rioters to push his body back and forth in a concerted 'heave-ho' movement against the line of officers," according to the DOJ. In March, Christopher Carnell, 20, of Cary, and David Worth Bowman, 21, of Raleigh, were charged with felony obstructing, influencing or impeding any official preceding for their actions on Jan. 6. According to court documents, Carnell and Bowman were captured on surveillance video entering the Senate floor on Jan. 6. They were seen "rifling through papers on Senators' desks" and joining a crowd of people chanting "treason." At least 30 people from North Carolina have been arrested and charged with crimes connected to the Jan. 6 insurrection. The DOJ reports more than 1,000 people have been arrested in nearly all 50 states for crimes related to the breach of the U.S. Capitol, including nearly 350 people charged with assaulting or impeding law enforcement.

Jan 6th insurrectionist travels 3000 miles from Seattle to run amuck in D.C -- appears to want to bomb something in Obama's neighborhood. I guess his days of evading the federal warrant are over. Man with weapons and Jan. 6 warrant arrested after running toward Obamas' D.C. home https://www.cbsnews.com/news/man-with-weapons-arrested-near-obamas-dc-home/ A man with materials to make explosives and an active Jan. 6-related warrant was arrested by law enforcement in former President Barack Obama's Washington, D.C., neighborhood, multiple sources briefed on the matter tell CBS News. Several sources identified the suspect as 37-year-old Taylor Taranto, of Seattle, Washington. Secret Service spotted him within blocks of the Obama's home, according to a law enforcement official briefed on the matter. Taranto fled, and Secret Service chased him. He was running toward the Obama home, but was apprehended before reaching it. Taranto's van was parked close to where he was arrested. There were multiple weapons and the materials to make some kind of explosive device akin to a Molotov cocktail, but it had not been assembled, according law enforcement officials familiar with the details. He had said he had explosives, but first responders only found the materials to make them. U.S. officials were concerned because Taranto had made threats during recent livestreams on social media against a public figure. He also had an open warrant on charges related to the Jan. 6, 2021 assault on the U.S. Capitol. He wasn't in Obama's neighborhood by mistake, a U.S. official noted. According to a senior law enforcement official, Taranto had been in Washington, D.C., area for a couple of months. He had been seen camping out in his van near the D.C. jail where many of the Jan. 6 defendants are being held, and some of his livestreams were apparently posted while he was in the D.C. area. Taranto has been charged with being a fugitive from justice, according to the Metropolitan Police Department. The incident did not result in any injuries. It's unclear if the Obamas were home at the time.
Another violent insurrectionist clown from North Carolina is about to be locked up. Hopefully for many years. Johnston County man must face officer he assaulted in Jan. 6 insurrection A Middlesex man will learn next week how much time he'll spend in jail for his actions during the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol. https://www.wral.com/johnston-count...-he-assaulted-in-jan-6-insurrection/20944859/ A Middlesex man will learn next week how much time he'll spend in jail for his actions during the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol. Federal court documents say that Matthew Jason Beddingfield jumped over a barricade on the grounds of the U.S. Capitol and charged toward a group of Capitol police officers. He attacked one of the officers, "jabbing at them with a metal flag pole he brought with him," the court records said. The federal government obtained several videos and pictures of Beddingfield, all from different angles, that show him holding an American flag and using it to harm Capitol police. On Tuesday, one of those officers, Aquilino Gonell, will get his chance to respond. He'll be among those to testify at Beddingfield's sentencing hearing. Federal prosecutors have recommended that Beddingfield spend 42 months in prison. That would be the second-longest sentence so far for a N.C. defendant. Federal officials used footage from WRAL-TV to confirm Beddingfield's identity. In 2019, Beddingfield turned himself over to the police after being accused of shooting a 17-year-old in the head in the parking lot of a Walmart. Beddingfield was out on bail from an attempted murder charge in that shooting when he was charged in connection to the Jan. 6 riot.

Violent racist insurrectionist gets 34 months. He deserved many more. He's the typical MAGA Trumper. NC man who stormed US Capitol while free on attempted murder charge gets over 3 years in prison for riot A North Carolina man who stormed the U.S. Capitol while awaiting trial for shooting a teenager in the head was sentenced on Tuesday to more than three years in prison for attacking police officers with a flagpole during the riot. https://www.wral.com/story/man-who-...ets-over-3-years-in-prison-for-riot/20949805/ A North Carolina man who stormed the U.S. Capitol while awaiting trial for shooting a teenager in the head was sentenced on Tuesday to more than three years in prison for attacking police officers with a flagpole during the riot. Matthew Jason Beddingfield, 22, was free on pretrial release for an attempted murder charge in Johnston County, North Carolina, when he joined the riot on Jan. 6, 2021. Outside the Capitol, Beddingfield flashed a Nazi-style salute after attacking police officers with a pole attached to an American flag, according to federal prosecutors. U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols sentenced Beddingfield to a prison term of three years and two months followed by two years of supervised release, according to a spokesperson for the U.S. Attorney's office for the District of Columbia. Prosecutors had recommended a prison sentence of three years and six months for Beddingfield, who pleaded guilty in February to one count of assaulting, resisting or impeding police. Beddingfield, then 20 and living in Middlesex, North Carolina, traveled to Washington, D.C., with his father on Jan. 6 and attended then-President Donald Trump's “Stop the Steal” rally. Leaving the rally, they separated as they approached the Capitol with a mob of Trump supporters. On the West Plaza, Beddingfield attacked police officers with a flagpole and threw a piece of the pole at an officer after it broke. “Beddingfield then faced the Capitol and made a gesture (one that is commonly associated with the Nazis), extending his arm and hand forward and at an upward angle,” a prosecutor wrote in a court filing. After entering the Capitol, he joined other rioters in attacking a group of police officers in a hallway. Getting hit with a chemical irritant made him retreat. Entering an office for then-House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, Beddingfield washed his eyes in a drinking fountain before he left the building. In August 2021, Beddingfield pleaded guilty to an assault charge for shooting a teenage boy in a Walmart parking lot in North Carolina. Beddingfield was sentenced to two years of probation for the December 2019 shooting, which the teen survived. “From publicly available interviews given by Beddingfield’s father, it seems that from the beginning, there was no dispute that Beddingfield shot his victim, a 17-year-old Hispanic male. The claim appears to be that Beddingfield shot the victim after Beddingfield was robbed,” assistant U.S. Attorney Sean Murphy wrote in a filing last year. An attorney for Beddingfield has said that terms of his pretrial release in the North Carolina case allowed him to travel to Washington for the Jan. 6 rally. FBI agents found eight guns and over 2,000 rounds of ammunition when they searched Beddingfield's family home. Images found on Beddingfield’s phone included swastikas, Hitler memes and others glorifying white supremacist ideologies, prosecutors said. Messages on the phone suggest he harbored “deep resentment” toward Black, Hispanic, Native American and LGBTQ people, according to prosecutors. “In some of the messages and exchanges,” Murphy wrote, “Beddingfield unabashedly expresses his wish that members of those groups meet a violent end and in others he expresses a desire to inflict said violence or death on the same.” About a year after the riot, Beddingfield posted a message on Instagram that said, “I’d like to reclaim America and it is fine if a few of my peoples enemies are ‘hurt’ in the process.” More than 1,000 people have been charged with federal crimes related to the Capitol riot. Over 600 of them have pleaded guilty. More than 560 have been sentenced, with over half receiving terms of imprisonment ranging from three days to 18 years.
