Federal prosecutors say 1,000 more people could be arrested in connection with Jan. 6
Federal prosecutors in Washington, D.C. have warned that over 1,000 more individuals could be arrested and charged in connection with the January 6th riots at the Capitol, Bloomberg has reported. This announcement comes despite the fact that the Department of Justice has already arrested 999 individuals connected to the event according to official sources. Matthew Graves, the US attorney in Washington, D.C., sent a letter to the chief judge of Washington D.C. federal court, stating that the Department of Justice estimated that it could charge up to 1,200 new defendants.
Although the estimated amount of arrests given, Graves stated that this total number may change, as the Justice Department continues to evaluate and change its resources and circumstances. Graves also mentioned that determining the number of cases related to the investigation is particularly difficult due to the complexities and the nature of the investigation.
Arrests have already been made in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. The Justice Department states that around 420 defendants in connection to the riot have been sentenced so far. Graves believes that a higher proportion of these charges will be felonies as opposed to misdemeanors.
According to federal prosecutors, more individuals involved in the January 6th riots could be arrested, potentially exceeding 1,000.
