Veteran use of power skilled Steven Hill, a former SWAT staff supervisor with the Albuquerque Police Division, warns police waged a “terror attack” in opposition to the group of peaceable demonstrators throughout the J6 Cease the Steal rally after they launched a concussion grenade that set not less than one man on fireplace.
Hill, an investigator with J6Truth, has examined over 1000 hours of J6 footage over the previous two years and brought the stand in three J6 trials as an skilled witness whereas aiding protection attorneys together with these representing the Oath Keepers and the Proud Boys with gathering exculpatory proof.
J6 Reality’s staff of investigators, together with Hill and this reporter, have recognized not less than a dozen of cases of police flagrantly breaking the legislation throughout the January 6 protests.
In footage captured from a demonstrator’s digicam on the West Plaza of the US Capitol at 1:24 pm, cops are seen firing a “sting ball grenade” right into a peaceable crowd that set not less than one man on fireplace, an illegal aberration of standard operating procedures and violation of all District of Columbia ordinances.
“You see a sting ball grenade that has been hand-thrown by officers into a crowd of peaceful oblivious demonstrators who are at least 30 to 50 feet behind the frontline of demonstrators,” Hill highlights in a 2-minute video of the explosion.
“As you watch where the grenade lands, you see that this group of people — some of them are praying, talking with others, shooting cell phone video facing away from the officers and unaware as to what the Capitol officers are doing,” he continues. “The riot control weapon is a rubber ball grenade that uses a small charge that will split the ball in half and eject tear gases, rubber balls or both.”
District of Columbia legislation and commonplace working procedures mandate police to situation dispersal orders and a transparent warning, not less than thrice, to the group asking them to depart earlier than trying an arrest, utilizing power, or deploying munitions.
“The US Capitol Police used less lethal munitions against a crowd who was not advised that their actions were considered unlawful and they were not told to leave the area. When the Metropolitan Police arrived minutes later, they also started deploying munitions into a crowd that had not been warned,” Hill explains. “Each police businesses’ commonplace working procedures and the Washington DC ordinances mandate the First Modification demonstrators be warned not less than thrice utilizing a public tackle system that’s heard by the group.
“The US Capitol has a massive public address system that communicates directions over the entire area of the Capitol grounds, but they chose not to use it. This is only one of many unlawfully deployed grenades sent into the middle of peaceful crowds that day without any warning, injuring a number of protesters, [including] setting one man on fire. This is an unlawful and excessive use of force.”
The police deployed hand grenades — you pull a pin and also you throw them down into the group —and it was an completely peaceable crowd. There was no motive for them to have executed that,” Hill instructed TGP in an unique interview. “They were thrown into the most peaceful part of that crowd. And that’s criminal.”
A majority of the American public believes the federal government and the mainstream narrative concerning the January 6 “insurrection.”
In line with a recent survey carried out in December by The Washington Post and the University of Maryland, 55 p.c of voters stated the Jan. 6 Capitol riot was an assault on democracy that ought to by no means be forgotten. Forty-three 43 p.c stated “too much has been made of it and believe it’s time to move on.” A whopping 86 p.c of Democrat voters, the identical plurality that supported an effort to defund the police, stated the assault ought to by no means be forgotten, whereas 72 p.c of Republican voters stated it’s time to show the web page.
However an examination of the footage revealing what actually occurred that fateful day irrefutably reveals legislation enforcement officers themselves escalated the protest into an riot, whereas the trumped up costs and over prosecutions of J6 defendants is a continued “terror attack” in opposition to the American folks,” Hill contends.
“Most of these charges the Justice Department has leveled against January 6 defendants would be, at the most, misdemeanors in the real world. but not in the world of DC, where they’re where they’re trying to go after Trump. So, this has to be ‘worse than 911 and Pearl Harbor’ put together,” he stated. “The federal government claims January 6 was an ‘insurrection,’ but, 99 p.c of the demonstrators had been unarmed. They got here to exhibit, and that’s a First Modification proper. And plenty of of those folks had been pushed into their actions due to the actions of the police.
“It was it was a horrific occasion. There was a lot misuse of force and unlawful use of force by officers that began the start of a terror occasion. However the actual terrorist occasion began when our authorities began going after these folks and charging them with crimes they may not commit or charging them with crimes that had been to date above and past the easy misdemeanors they’d have been charged with.
“Instead, they charged them with 10 felony counts, and I know the purpose behind it is to put people like you and me on notice that the government could come out of at us at any moment, that we need to ‘keep our mouths shut and go sit in our corner and not question what our government’s doing.’ And it’s it’s an absolute travesty that we’ve allowed our government to be so corrupt.”
J6 political prisoner Jake Lang based J6 Reality and SponsorJ6 whereas incarcerated. Lang additionally hosts a weekly podcast on TGP through which he unabashedly calls consideration to the Justice Division’s malfeasance.
Round 4 am on Tuesday, jail guards abruptly dragged Lang and J6 prisoner Ryan Samsel out of their cells and knowledgeable them they’d be transferred to a non-disclosed location.
On Wednesday, the Bureau of Prisons confirmed Lang and Samsel are at the moment detained in US Penitentiary Lewisburg. Lang’s relations instructed TGP the 2 inmates are nonetheless in transit and are barred from communication till they’re housed in one other facility which might take “days, weeks or months.”
“I’m very concerned about Ryan and Jake’s safety,” Hill stated. “For them to only be ripped out of their jail cell and disappear like that feels like an outdated Soviet ploy the place they’d they’d do away with the people who had been a thorn within the sides of the administration. That’s what’s what worries me essentially the most is that they find yourself disappearing and getting injured or simply we’ve misplaced them off the face of the earth.
“If you’d asked me 10 years ago, I said that would never happen in this country. But nowadays, I don’t know. It makes you wonder.”
