Upon Julia Sizer’s first entry into the Capitol Building, Brian Sizer was not with her. According to information obtained from Google pursuant to a geofence warrant, Brian Sizer’s Phone, serviced by Verizon Wireless, was not determined to be among those devices present at the Capitol Building on January 6. A name search for Brian was conducted in law enforcement databases and returned results for an individual not matching the description of Sizer. A facial recognition search was conducted and failed to identify him inside the Capitol Building. However, CCTV shows that when Julia reentered the Capitol Building, again through the Parliamentarian Door, approximately four minutes after her first exit, she was accompanied by Brian (~2:54 PM). They both made their way to an office inside the building. Brian exited the Capitol Building through the Parliamentarian Door at approximately 3:00 pm. Julia exited through the Parliamentarian Door a second time at approximately 3:01.
Please keep in mind that in the United States, every citizen charged with a crime is presumed innocent until proven guilty.
