Insurrection

More than a year after the Jan. 6 insurrection, the Department of Justice continues to spend enormous amounts of time and energy pressing cases against people from across the country who tried to overturn a presidential election with violence. Seventeen Missourians are facing federal charges.

Missourians charged in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol include an alleged member of the Proud Boys, a husband and wife, and a man who entered the Capitol dressed as George Washington.
