Though his actions prior are not detailed, Ryals eventually made it to the doors of the U.S. Capitol. He stated he was pushed into the hallways inside of the U.S. Capitol Building. However, once inside, he saw there were offices in the hallway, and he went into one. He then exited the office and got pushed back outside by the Capitol Police and the flow of the crowd.
Ryals stated that after he had been outside for about 5-10 minutes, he went back inside
the U.S. Capitol Building. He traveled to various points within the U.S. Capitol Building, including
hallways, stairs, and the rotunda. At one point, he stated he was in front of a statue of George
Washington.
Ryals also stated that he met up with Griffith a few times inside the U.S. Capitol
Building. Eventually, Ryals left the U.S. Capitol Building. Once outside, he took a picture of
himself and Griffith outside the U.S. Capitol Building.
Please keep in mind that in the United States, every citizen charged with a crime is presumed innocent until proven guilty.
