Jorge Riley is seen inside the Capitol Building, pictured confronting Capitol Police. Open-source research revealed a video entitled, “Video of man describing in detail breaking into the Capitol Building.”1 In the video, a man with the same black leather jacket, black braided hair, white feathers, and remnants of black face paint, is standing on what appears to be the Capitol grounds while he details how he broke into and damaged the Capitol, and assaulted federal law enforcement officers.
Please keep in mind that in the United States, every citizen charged with a crime is presumed innocent until proven guilty.
