A police officer frequently provided Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio with internal information about law enforcement operations in the weeks before members of his extremist group stormed the U.S. Capitol, according to messages shown at trial.
In a message to Tarrio on Dec. 25, 2020, Lamond said Metropolitan Police Department investigators had asked him to identify Tarrio from a photograph. He warned Tarrio that police may be seeking a warrant for his arrest.
“That was their theme over and over again,” Jauregui told U.S. District Judge Timothy Kelly during a break in testimony. Tarrio and his four lieutenants are charged with seditious conspiracy for what prosecutors said was a plot to stop the peaceful transfer of presidential power and keep former President Donald Trump in the White House after the 2020 presidential election. Thousands of rioters stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6, disrupting a joint session of Congress for certifying the Electoral College vote.
