U.S. authorities have confiscated roughly $90,000 from a Utah man who sold footage of a woman being fatally shot during the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol by supporters of former President Donald Trump, according to court filings.

Prosecutors also have filed additional criminal charges against the man, John Earle Sullivan, a self-described political activist who is accused of entering the Capitol building and participating in the riot, the filings unsealed on Thursday showed.

Sullivan now faces a total of eight criminal counts, including weapons charges, related to the riot. Sullivan's lawyer did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

More at link. Apologies if this has already been posted. I've not seem this info.

Ps to Reuters: this was a terrorist attack on the US Government, with stated intent to murder elected officials of both parties. NOT a "riot."

1. I'd rather they freeze it, try him, then seize it

I don’t like this seize first move, even for this traitorous creep.
