Arrests Continue For StormTrumper Rioters


The FBI continues to arrest the domestic terrorists who assaulted police at the U.S. Capitol on January 6 during the Trumpist insurrection. One notorious thug, Jack Wade Whitton, Jr.,was arrested Thursday in Georgia and has has been charged with multiple felonies, including assault on police officers:

"Authorities believe Jack Wade Whitton Jr. was at the center of some of the most savage fighting between the pro-Trump mob and police at West Terrace entrance to the Capitol where rioters grabbed and stabbed at officers with flag poles and other implements.

In several videos posted online, the man believed to be Whitton is seen repeatedly jabbing at a police line with a crutch as the mob chants 'Fight for Trump.' Another video showed him punching an officer, then grabbing him and dragging him into the crowd."  (our emphasis)

Another StormTrumper, Grady Douglas Owens, was arrested Thursday in Central Florida on felony charges including assaulting a police officer with a skateboard causing a concussion:

"The charges Grady Douglas Owens is facing are among the more serious of anyone arrested in Central Florida in connection with the Capitol riots.

Owens, a Full Sail University student, was wearing shorts and a t-shirt when he appeared in court Thursday afternoon. He told the judge he believes his parents are trying to hire him an attorney.

Prosecutors said Owens is facing four charges and three of them are felonies. The most serious has to do with assaulting or resisting an officer while using a deadly weapon and inflicting bodily harm.

Because it is a violent felony, prosecutors asked the judge to hold Owens without bond and the judge agreed."  (our emphasis)

The FBI, U.S. Marshals Service, local and other law enforcement agencies have done a good job in a short time with the help of citizens who have provided tips.  However, there are hundreds of domestic terrorists waiting to be identified, rounded up and charged and the FBI still needs the public's help. Please take time and check out the FBI's website to see if anyone you might recognize was part of the seditious insurrection. Until they're locked up, they will be back.
