The Jan. 6 attack: The cases behind the biggest criminal investigation in U.S. history
Updated July 7, 20235:25 PM ET
On Jan. 6, 2021, supporters of then-President Donald Trump stormed the U.S. Capitol, injuring scores of law enforcement officers, forcing a panicked evacuation of the nation’s political leaders, and threatening the peaceful transfer of power.
Five people died during or soon after the riot, and more than $2.8 million worth of damage was done to the Capitol and grounds. The Federal Bureau of Investigation has estimated that 2,000 people may have been involved that day, and considers the attack an act of domestic terrorism. In response, the Department of Justice launched the largest criminal investigation in U.S. history.
NPR is tracking every criminal case stemming from that day’s events. This database makes publicly available — and searchable — information on hundreds of cases, including alleged affiliation with extremist ideologies and past or present police or military experience.

The chief medical examiner in Washington, D.C., confirmed on Wednesday the causes and manners of death of four people who died during the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.
Two of the four deaths were ruled natural, one an accident and the fourth a homicide, WTOP reported.
@cigarmanstan During the Riots… There was probably 2 that passed away at Columbia Hospice Care around the corner and another 6 at the George Washington University Hospital ER…
CNN and the rest of the leftist hack media would have included these in the January 6th Capital Riot fatalities if they had have done a little more due diligence on the day…

Open secrets follow the money in politics
What is Dark Money?
“Dark money” refers to spending meant to influence political outcomes where the source of the money is not disclosed. Here’s how dark money makes its way into elections:
Politically active nonprofits such as 501(c)(4)s are generally under no legal obligation to disclose their donors even if they spend to influence elections. When they choose not to reveal their sources of funding, they are considered dark money groups.
Opaque nonprofits and shell companies may give unlimited amounts of money to super PACs. While super PACs are legally required to disclose their donors, some of these groups are effectively dark money outlets when the bulk of their funding cannot be traced back to the original donor.
In America, money moves the niddle
Record contributions from dark money groups and shell companies flooded 2022 midterm elections
Federal political committees reported taking in $615 million from “dark money” groups and shell companies during the 2022 election – a new midterm record, a new OpenSecrets analysis of Federal Election Commission data found.
The $615 million in 2022 political contributions is slightly lower than the $653 million federal political committees reported receiving from opaque sources during the 2020 election cycle, which included contributions to groups spending not only on congressional elections, but also on the presidential showdown between President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump — the most expensive federal election cycle in history.
Including political contributions, online advertising and spending disclosed to the FEC, the 2020 cycle attracted more than $1 billion from untraceable sources. With robust dark money operations still in place to boost both Biden and Trump in the upcoming presidential race, the 2024 election cycle is poised to attract substantial sums of dark money as well.
Gray money groups that only partially disclose their donors reported spending $1.4 billion to the FEC during the 2022 election cycle — accounting for around 70% of all outside spending by non-party committees.
The 2020 election cycle also saw record spending by gray money groups funded in part by shell companies and 501(c) groups that do not disclose their donors. In 2020 — a presidential election cycle — gray money total topped $2 billion, which accounted for roughly 70% of that election cycle’s non-party committee outside spending as well.
Just one election cycle earlier during the 2018 midterms, gray money spending totaled less than $400 million and only topped $100 million for the first time during the 2016 presidential cycle when it reached $212 million.
Democrats benefited more from dark money than Republicans in 2022
The 2022 federal midterms mark the third consecutive election cycle where Democrats benefited from more dark money than Republicans, OpenSecrets’ analysis of FEC data found.
Liberal political committees reported over $316.4 million in political contributions from dark money groups and shell companies during the 2022 cycle while conservative political committees reported $263 million.
The trend of Democrats benefiting from more reported dark money in federal elections began during the 2018 midterm cycle when liberal groups first outspent their conservative counterparts. That’s despite Democratic rhetoric decrying dark money and a series of failed efforts by some members of the party to crackdown on political contributions from undisclosed sources.
Again I ask why was Ray Epps not arrested?
and was the police officer ever charged? if not, why not
Dennis, when did you become a comedian?
So you support the US version on this, you are one sick puppy
Do you also support the British soldiers
Perhaps this one you justify too
Stop it, dennis, You had politicians in session to confirm the presidency, and those officers had the right to open fire, but thank goodness none of those protesters got their hands on any politicians
‘Where Are You, Nancy?’
I would think the murder on over 2000 Americans on Sept 11 2001 would hold that title,
