A man who says he was at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, but has not been arrested, has been filming himself harassing officers who fought off the mob that day.
WASHINGTON — A man who was at the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol but has not been arrested confronted two law enforcement officers this week who were witnesses at the trial of another man facing felony charges related to the insurrection.
Tatum himself has not been charged in connection with Jan. 6, although he posted videos he has said he recorded at the Capitol that day and even videos of a purported phone call he claims he got from the FBI about the Capitol attack . Tatum has said in online posts that U.S. Capitol Police Sgt. Aquilino Gonell, who is also testifying in the trial, said that Tatum told him that he should be ashamed of himself in an exchange near the bathroom inside the courthouse on Wednesday. Shortly after, Tatum got into an expletive-laden confrontation with David Laufman, an attorney for Gonell, after he tried to get into an elevator with Gonell, Laufman and an NBC News reporter.
“For Sgt. Gonell to be accosted like that, within the courthouse and while he remains a live witness at trial, was outrageous and amounts to witness intimidation that promptly should be addressed by the court as well as the FBI and the Department of Justice,” Laufman, who is representing Gonell pro bono, told NBC News on Wednesday night.
He also acknowledged that he recorded a video posted under his name in which he yelled at officers being attacked at the Capitol on Jan. 6, telling them they were going to go to “eternal damnation” and that the mob had God on their side. “It wasn’t a parade, because I didn’t get hugs and kisses. I got injured by your defendant,” Gonell said.
