D.C. police lieutenant indicted with tipping off Proud Boy Enrique Tarrio about arrest

Source: NBC News

A Metropolitan Police Department lieutenant who supervised the intelligence branch of the Washington, D.C., police was indicted this week, charged with tipping off former Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio about a pending warrant for his arrest just ahead of the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.

Tarrio, the former chair of the Proud Boys, was recently found guilty of seditious conspiracy in connection with the Capitol attack, along with other members of the far-right group. Tarrio was not in Washington, D.C., on Jan. 6 after his arrest in connection with the burning of a Black Lives Matter banner, as he was banned from the city by a judge the day before the attack.

Shane Lamond, 47, was indicted on one count of obstruction of justice and three counts of making false statements, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia said Friday. A federal grand jury charged that Lamond obstructed the investigation into the burning of a Black Lives Matter banner on Dec. 12, 2020, when the Proud Boys were roaming the streets of Washington, D.C., for a pro-Trump event.

Between July 2019 and January 2021, Tarrio and Lamond communicated "at least 500 times using cloud-based messaging services, including Google Voice, Apple iMessages, and Telegram, an encrypted messaging application," the indictment said. They sent at least 145 messages using a secret chat function on Telegram that causes messages to disappear, the indictment charged.

Ruet, I remember it vividly from TIME magazine when I was still in high school in the 1960s, yet you provide no context or comment.

law enforcement and public office for years. Many who saw this coming were often written off as tin foil hatters though.

They're not infiltrating as something new. RW thugs were always the #1 requirement of what police forces looked for in their ranks.

It's always been that way.

He should be put on admin leave while an internal investigation... blah blah blah

He has no place in law enforcement when he warns anyone of an impending action.

"Between July 2019 and January 2021, Tarrio and Lamond communicated "at least 500 times ..." Lock him up.

The coup along with its helpers ran deep into government, law enforcement, businesses, elected officials,
and the military they need to be outed publicly, removed from their positions, and charged criminally too.

The US Capitol has something like 658 windows and all but 12 were blast proof and the rioters hit each
one of them.

And why was Chuck Grassley saying 0n 1/4/21 that Vice President Pence was not going to be there on
1/6/21?

their military ribbons on their police uniforms, those ribbons have no business being on a cop uniform.

This POS cop, if convicted, needs to spend the rest of his miserable life in a max prison, he betrayed his badge, his city and his country, he's a fucking traitor, IMHO.

Btw nice catch on his military ribbons. I knew something looked off about his uniform.
