Photo included in an affidavit from the FBI of David Slinker examining the laptop while the lock screen is visible during the Capitol riots on Jan. 6, 2021.A Kentucky man charged with storming the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, is now also suspected of stealing Nancy Pelosi’s laptop, according to newly unsealed court records.
Slinker isn’t charged with theft, but an FBI agent’s affidavit suggests that he left the Capitol with the stolen computer inside his backpack after other rioters helped him remove it from a conference room. Inside a conference room, Slinker and other rioters found a laptop that belonged to Pelosi, according to the FBI. A sticky note on the keyboard had what appeared to be passwords to access the computer.
Another rioter, Maryann Mooney-Rondon, encouraged Slinker to steal the laptop, saying, “It would be interesting to see what’s on that hard drive.” Her son, Rafael Rondon, warned them not to leave any fingerprints on it. Slinker closed the laptop with his elbows and tried to move it, according to the affidavit.
