Leading members of the far-right gang known as the Proud Boys are facing federal conspiracy charges in the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. Ahead of the riot, members of the group called for "war."
The founder of the Oath Keepers militia had a phone call with a member of the group who minutes later took part in a military-style "stack" formation to breach the Capitol on Jan. 6, prosecutors say.
They were indicted over allegedly conspiring to obstruct Congress' certification of the Electoral College, including in discussions on encrypted messaging apps.
The FBI released videos showing 10 people suspected of assaulting police during the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol. "Some of the most violent offenders have yet to be identified," the bureau said.
In a new filing, federal prosecutors allege that Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes was in direct contact before and on Jan. 6 with individuals who stormed the Capitol.
Those indicted have ties to what the Justice Department calls "a paramilitary organization focused on recruitment of current and former military, law enforcement, and first responder personnel."
