Capitol riot suspect was arrested after feds saw a Facebook post where he said, 'I was there'

A Florida man accused of boasting on Facebook multiple times about attending the deadly US Capitol riot was arrested Monday.

The Orlando Sentinel reported that John Maron Nassif, 55, was being charged with violent entry, disorderly conduct, and entering a restricted building or grounds without authority to do so.

"You know I was there, right?" an arrest affidavit said Nassif wrote on January 8, according to the Sentinel. "You don't find it odd that police officer is welcoming everybody in? Considering the narrative that's being pushed?"

Nassif is also said to have posted on January 20, weeks after the January 6 riot, acknowledging he was one of the people who breached the Capitol.

and thinking that saying "I know because I was there" to (try to) win an argument on the internet is a good idea.
