Federal prosecutors in the District have charged more than 725 individuals with various crimes in connection with the deadly Jan. 6 insurrection, when hundreds of rioters forced their way into the U.S. Capitol, the U.S. attorneys office said Friday.
As the country nears the first anniversary of the storming of the Capitol, the U.S. attorneys office in the District, the largest office of federal prosecutors in the nation, released a breakdown of the arrests and convictions associated with the attack.
Of those arrested, 225 people were charged with assault or resisting arrest. More than 75 of those were charged with using a deadly or dangerous weapon against police officers. The office said 140 police officers, including Capitol officers and members of the D.C. police department, were victimized during the attack.
The office said about 10 individuals were charged with assaulting members of the media or destroying their equipment.

None of the previous attacks planned this all on their own.
They had BIG BUCKS and donors inviting them to come.
So, let's weed out these groups and arrest them as well.
Pretty PLEASE!
