The Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office, Florida, indicated that the supporter of President Donald Trump caught carrying the lectern of the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi, In a photo of the capitol shoot on Wednesday, Adam Johnson, he was captured on the basis of a federal arrest warrant.
In the photo of his arrest, he appears without the radiant smile he wore when he was photographed Jan. 6 during the seizure of the Capitol by Trump supporters who had recently attended a rally for the president urging them to march to the building that houses the two houses of Congress.
Among other things, Trump told his followers that if they didn’t fight with violence, they would no longer have “a country” and that the weak should be left out because “the hour of violence” had come.
Johnson, 36, of Tampa, was arrested Jan. 8 and “awaiting trial,” the mugshot said.
The file does not list the charges for which it will be charged. Johnson’s photo with the Pelosi Atrium is one of the most publicized events in the Capitol, where five people were killed, one of them a police officer, and many were injured.
The attackers caused destruction at Congress headquarters and confronted the forces of the order in an episode defined by some lawmakers as a coup attempt and others as a “rebellion”.
The condemnation has been virtually unanimous, and Trump has been held directly responsible for the instigator’s events, not only by the Democrats, who have called for his removal, but also by some Republicans.
Trump risks impeachment, the second of his term, before Democrat Joe Biden assumes the presidency of the United States as the winner of the November 3 election on Jan. 20.
The current president does not accept the election results and claims to have been the victim of mass fraud without evidence, which is why he urged his supporters to march to the Capitol on January 6. That day, the legislative chambers carried out certification of Biden’s victory, which Trump describes as a “robbery.”
Once the situation was under control, Congress resumed its session interrupted by the attack and declared Biden president-elect in the early hours of January 7. Trump, whose Facebook and Twitter accounts have been banned to prevent incitement to violence, will not attend Biden’s inauguration.
