Recently-released surveillance video from inside the lower west terrace tunnel at the Capitol building from last January 6 confirms what.
For months: law enforcement officers from the D.C. Metropolitan Police Department and U.S. Capitol Police led a brutal assault against Trump supporters trapped inside that tunnel during the Capitol protest.
White, bleeding from the head in a photo included in the complaint, was transported to a D.C. police station and released the evening of January 6.
Capitol Police deployed tear gas and pepper balls into the crowd while D.C. Metro police threw flashbangs and sting balls filled with rubber bullets, which prompted many of the initial confrontations between police and protesters.
At least two January 6 defendants charged with assaulting police officers will accuse law enforcement of excessive force that day and cite self-defense as a reason for their conduct.
A judge to prevent one January 6 defendant from presenting "Any evidence that he had a reasonable belief that his actions were necessary to defend himself against the immediate use of unlawful force." Prosecutors also want to conceal the names of officers involved in any altercations with protesters on January 6.
No officer on duty that day has been charged with unlawful force; three D.C. Metro and one Capitol Police officer reportedly.
