MAGA rioter who pushed barriers into cops gets ID'd by his sister's husband: sheriff's investigator

An Orlando FL man was captured on video by numerous Capitol Police body cams as he stalked up and down the gates and bicycle racks separating rioters and officers at the January 6 insurrection.

Robert Flynt Fairchild Jr., 40, had his identity confirmed by his sister's husband, who happens to be a uniformed sheriff's investigator in Georgia, according to FBI arrest documents. The law enforcement officer, identified as "J.L." in the report, stated that he was aware that Fairchild was planning on going to Washington, D.C. on or about January 6, but did not know what his intentions were.

J.L. was the only witness other than Capitol police cited in the report. But multiple body cameras showed that Fairchild was quite active at the riot, according to the FBI.

"Fairchild is seen consistently moving up and down the police line along the security gate barriers/bike racks," the report says. "In addition, Fairchild removes, or attempts to remove, multiple security gate barriers along the West Plaza, either by himself or with the help of other rioters in the crowd."

2. Before I even read this, I somehow figured he was from Florida.

Even though the insurrectionists were from all over the country, Florida seems to have more than their fair share. Is it their headquarters?
