Capitol Police officer Michael Riley accused telling Jan. 6 rioter to remove social media evidence

However on Jan. 12, after the individual stated his presence on the Capitol was drawing consideration on-line, Riley once more allegedly suggested, “Get off of social media.” When the individual requested if he had been charged, Riley wrote, “Name me,” and the pair spoke for 23 minutes, based on the indictment. Inside hours, the individual texted two others saying that he had spoken to “capitol police” and that fees towards him have been more likely to be trespassing, the indictment stated.
