Man accused of entering Pelosi's office during Jan. 6 riot arrested in Denver

A man accused of entering House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s office during the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol was arrested in Denver this week, according to court records. An arrest affidavit obtained by KMGH says a family member identified Hunter Palm as one of the rioters who stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6 as Congress was certifying the Electoral College vote count for the 2020 presidential election.

The relative sent a letter to the FBI that said Palm had called them from Washington, D.C. to say he had entered the Capitol building and he eventually entered a conference room with a long table with several chairs, where he sat to rest, according to the affidavit. On Feb. 6, the affidavit says FBI agents interviewed Palm and he admitted to entering the Capitol building.

Palm also provided agents with the cell phone he claimed he had at the Capitol, as well as a flash drive that contained videos Palm had recorded of the riot, the affidavit says. He also brought the clothes he was wearing on that day to the FBI interview, along with a flag that had the words “TRUMP” and “Keep America Great” written on it.

Based on images provided by Palm, he and others entered a door marked “office of the speaker.” The affidavit says people in the crowd were shouting things like “Nancy,”
“Where are you?”
and
“We’re gonna kill her.”
