Dresch made statements on social media saying he was in the Capitol acting peacefully with the crowd. He stated police were “poking” and “gassing randomly into women and children being peaceful.”

Information on Writing/Encouragement

Dresch owns a local business that he is getting back in order after prison. His wife Sara's father passed away on the same day her husband was arrested. When the arrest occurred, the government "ransacked" their home, leaving everything out of place. This created trauma and a feeling of violation that Mrs. Dresch is overcoming.
