Old  Default DOJ charges 6more defendants in the OathKeepers movement with conspiracy in the Capitol insurrection
DOJ charges 6 more defendants in the Oath Keepers movement with conspiracy in the Capitol insurrection

By Grace Panetta




The DOJ filed charges against 6 people in the Oath Keepers movement over the Capitol riot.
Nine people associated with the Oath Keepers are charged with conspiracy to obstruct Congress in the case.
The Oath Keepers are a far-right extremist armed group.


The Department of Justice filed charges against six additional defendants associated with the far-right Oath Keepers armed movement for conspiracy to obstruct Congress in an indictment released on Friday.

The six new defendants have been added as co-defendants to an existing case against three defendants, Jessica Watkins, Donovan Crowl, and Thomas Caldwell alleging that Oath Keepers conspired to commit violence at the Capitol. The new defendants are Graydon Young, Kelly Meggs, Connie Meggs, Laura Steele, Sandra Ruth Parker, and Bennie Alvin Parker.

Prosecutors say in the indictment that the defendants planned to besiege the Capitol as early as November 3, and coordinated plans to travel to D.C. with weapons and tactical gear in tow on social media for weeks beforehand.

"Trump said It's gonna be wild!!!!!!! It's gonna be wild!!!!!!! He wants us to make it WILD that's what he's saying. He called us all to the Capitol and wants us to make it wild!!! Sir Yes Sir!!! Gentlemen we are heading to DC pack your shit!!" Kelly Meggs wrote in a December 22 Facebook message, prosecutors said, after former President Donald Trump tweeted, "Big protest in D.C. on January 6th. Be there, will be wild!" on December 19.

So far, the DOJ has filed conspiracy charges against 18 defendants in total in connection with the riots, including the nine Oath Keepers.

Since the Capitol siege, authorities have charged over 250 defendants with offenses including entering and remaining in a restricted building illegally; violent entry and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds; and, in some cases, theft of US government property.

After the initial wave of prosecutions and arrests, investigators started refocusing their wide-ranging inquiries on whether the violence was coordinated in late January, The Wall Street Journal reported. Those ongoing probes could lead to more-complex conspiracy and sedition charges, the report said.

In charging documents filed in the case of Proud Boys leader Ethan Nordean in early February, prosecutors suggested that the far-right extremist groups may have planned violence on police officers at the Capitol to get revenge on D.C.-area law enforcement after one of their members was stabbed at a December demonstration that turned violent.

Also in early February, Reuters reported that prosecutors at the Department of Justice were also considering whether to pursue charges under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, or RICO, a law enacted in the 1970s to prosecute Mafia members and organized-crime rings and connect organized crime leaders to those offenses.
