According to AP NEWS, former D.C. police lieutenant Shane Lamond was charged with, “one count of obstruction of justice and three counts of making false statements.” Warning Proud Boys leader Henry “Enrique” Tarrio about his pending arrest before the Jan. 6 Capitol attack and lying to investigators about it.
Lamond claims, “I don’t support the Proud Boys, and I’m not a Proud Boys sympathizer.” A 24-year veteran of the department leaked information to Tarrio about a warrant for his arrest related to burning a Black Lives Matter flag stolen from a historic African American church.
U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson made the ruling after a week-long bench trial.
