FBI identified Matthew Stickney in surveillance photos at the Capitol on Jan 6

By Diane Hettrick

The MLTNews.com has published a detailed story about a local man who has been arrested as a participant in the January 6 Capitol riots.

34 year old Matthew Stickney was photographed in restricted areas of the Capitol on January 6. FBI built the case against him using records from two cell phones he carried, airplane tickets, text messages, and internet searches.

On Dec. 24, he searched for and viewed the webpage for the Hilton Garden Inn in Washington, D.C. and “How do I take my gun with me on a flight?” Followed by “Is weed legal in D.C.?” on Dec. 27.

As Jan. 6 approached, Stickney viewed the webpage for the AC Hotel by Marriott in downtown Washington, D.C. as well as searching if he could bring a gas mask, walkie-talkies, and a knife on a plane.

After the Capitol riot, Stickney searched for — Hands burning from pepper spray. Jan. 6

The FBI concluded in its warrant request that Stickney knowingly entered and remained in a restricted building or grounds without lawful authority to do so. Further, he knowingly did so to “impede or disrupt the orderly conduct of Government business or official functions.”

again - I'd like the opportunity to speak quietly with someone who went to the capital - what was their goal? did they ever have a civics class in school? what has The Donald ever done that has benefited anyone but The Donald? What were their hopes and aspirations for the future if they had been successful at whatever they hoped to accomplish? Do they know what an oligarchy is? Have they studied any history? Do they have an older relative on social security or medicare? just wonderin'
