Harrison Floyd, the head of the group Black Voices for Trump and among 18 co-defendants in the Georgia 2020 election subversion case, was charged in May with assaulting an FBI agent.
Floyd, 39, threatened two FBI agents who served him a subpoena at his apartment in Rockville, Maryland, on Feb. 23 and is accused of body-slamming an agent while screaming expletives at the agent and his colleague, according to an affidavit obtained by the Washington Post. He faces a charge of simple assault on a federal officer.The Washington Examiner contacted Floyd's attorney, Carlos J.R. Salvado, for a response.
At one point during Floyd's interaction with authorities, he allegedly yelled at officers to"get out" and made false claims that the agents hadn't identified themselves or shown their identification before following him up a staircase to serve him the subpoena. An online member profile and Q&A posted by the University Club of Washington in November 2021 describes Floyd as a U.S. Marine Corps veteran whose previous roles included machine-gunner, combat marksmanship trainer, and martial arts instructor, according to the Washington Post, which linked to the now-removed profile.
The veteran is accused of establishing a meeting between Fulton County election worker Ruby Freeman and another co-defendant in the case, Trevian Kutti, a former publicist of musicians R. Kelly and Kanye West.
