Charges: Lynnwood men took selfies, raised Trump banner in Jan. 6 riot
LYNNWOOD — Two Lynnwood men were arrested Wednesday on federal charges in connection with the breach of the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
Federal prosecutors say Tucker Weston and Jesse Watson were two of hundreds who stormed the Capitol based on debunked claims of a “stolen” election. The mob supporting then-President Donald Trump tried to halt the presidential election certification process.
Weston, 34, faces allegations of assaulting, resisting or impeding certain officers, as well as interfering with officers during civil disorder, both felonies. He’s also charged with multiple misdemeanors.
Watson, 33, faces charges of entering a restricted building or grounds and violent entry or disorderly conduct, both misdemeanors.
