Nathaniel J. Degrave

Video surveillance shows DeGrave inside the Capitol on Jan. 6th. He entered the building to document the event for a podcast. DeGrave is accused of putting up his fists to box with a Capitol Police officer. There is no witness testimony in the indictment from a witness or victim saying that he assaulted the officer.

The government uses First Amendment commends DeGrave made on social media to allege his guilt.

Please keep in mind that in the United States, every citizen charged with a crime is presumed innocent until proven guilty.
