Boastful Rioter Guilty Of Felony Assault On Cops

From the Justice Department:

A New Jersey man was found guilty today of assaulting law enforcement and other charges related to his conduct during the Jan. 6, 2021, breach of the U.S. Capitol.

His actions and the actions of others disrupted a joint session of the U.S. Congress convened to ascertain and count the electoral votes related to the 2020 presidential election.

A federal jury in the District of Columbia found Brian Glenn Bingham, 38, of New Jersey, guilty of felony offenses of civil disorder and assaulting, resisting, or impeding an officer from the Metropolitan Police Department.

In addition to the felonies, Bingham was also found guilty of misdemeanor offenses of entering and remaining in restricted building or grounds, disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted building or grounds, disorderly conduct in a Capitol building, and parading, demonstrating, or picketing in a Capitol building.

U.S. District Judge Dabney L. Friedrich will sentence Bingham on February 7, 2025.

According to evidence presented at trial, Bingham entered into the U.S. Capitol building in Washington D.C., at approximately 2:42 p.m. on Jan. 6, 2021.

Surveillance video from inside the Capitol shows that at approximately 2:55 p.m. Bingham engaged with police officers inside the Capitol in a physical altercation as the officers were attempting to clear the building of rioters.

Specifically, evidence showed that as Bingham was moving towards the exit, police officers were using their hands and batons to clear the area of rioters, repeatedly shouting, “Move!” as Bingham resisted.

Bingham then confronted the officer directly in the officer’s face and said, “Where do you want me to move?”, and then threatened the officer by saying, “Push me again!”

The officer continued to push Bingham toward the exit with his baton. Bingham then lunged and struck the officer in the face with a right-hand blow.

Bingham then continued to scuffle with the officer as other offices attempted to pull him away. Multiple officers were forced to respond and eventually pushed Bingham toward a doorway where he exited the building.

Minutes later, Bingham exchanged text messages with others. In the messages, Bingham confirmed his assault on police inside the Capitol, writing about his exploits “I just man handled 5 cops” and “Just scuffed cops, still free.”

The FBI arrested Bingham on June 22, 2021, in Alabama.
