Three Jan. 6 suspects were arrested at a ranch in Florida on Saturday, the FBI said – including one who has been sought ever since the 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol and two who never showed up for trial, court records show.

The FBI’s Tampa field office said three Jan. 6 fugitives – Jonathan Daniel Pollock, Olivia Michele Pollock and Joseph Daniel Hutchinson III – were taken into custody early Saturday morning, three years after the assault on the U.S. Capitol.

The FBI executed three federal arrest warrants at a ranch in Groveland, it said. No further details on their capture were available.

    Lol. One was a fugitive and the other two were out on bail with the condition that they don’t associate with the fugitive. Then one misses a hearing and all three get nabbed together. There goes that bail. Idiots.

      These people aren’t criminal masterminds, or masterminds in general. They thought they were elite soldiers in a revolution led by a man who doesn’t understand how orange concealer works. They’ve fallen for a PT Barnum you’d order on Wish, and admitting that would be horribly embarrassing, so they have no choice but to double down.

      The group of a couple thousand supporters he lobbed at the Capitol were made up of people those Nigerian prince emails were aimed at: they have typos on purpose to weed out anyone who would be smart enough to spot the grift. Of course they were dumb enough to livestream their crimes, and of course they’re dumb enough to out themselves in stupid ways.

      That was the target demographic.

      You should always be at least a little bit worried about the FBI hunting you. Granted, if you haven’t participated in an insurrection against the United States government the chances of them hunting you decrease substantially.

        Of all the potential things that I have even the slightest reason to be worried about, this is still probably among the least.

        I’m not worried at all. I’m such a vanishingly small fish, my chances of making their radar are at best 1%. Most of us just aren’t that important.

      Don’t worry, you’ve done something that they’d arrest you for. Everyone has, that’s the game.

    What’s the term, is it ‘gaggle’?

    A gaggle of terrorists… idk it fits but doesn’t sound quite right.

    Whenever I hear about the attempts of these people to flee, it’s hilarious.

    This trio picked the most comically obvious place to, “hide” next to maybe Missouri or Mississippi, that being Desantisland…

    That brother/sister duo are probably procreating together. :/

    How do i stop getting posts about this unless they are convictions? Arrests don’t mean justice can’t be happy with just people version of catch and release

    Thank you SCB for correcting my perception of this issue
