WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A federal judge on Thursday declined to ease pre-trial release conditions for a Beverly Hills, California, beauty salon owner facing felony charges for participating in the Jan. 6 U.S. Capitol riot.
A. Charles Peruto Jr., lawyer for Gina Bisignano, 52, owner of Ginas Eyelashes and Skincare, asked U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols in Washington to terminate a house arrest order and to allow his client to remove an ankle bracelet monitor.
Nichols, however, declined to relax Bisignano's release conditions, though he said he might reconsider his position.
According to an FBI document, during the riot Bisignano, using a bullhorn, declared "This is 1776, and we the people will never give up."
The FBI said that as she spoke other members of the crowd sprayed police with a fire extinguisher and attacked their shields "with what appear to be batons."
