Federal prosecutors are nearly a month into their investigations into people who stormed the Capitol building on January 6, filing charges against more than 200 people so far.
Court records indicate some of those people may be informing the FBI about other participants, according to The Daily Beast.
The Daily Beast identified three people who had been subjected to a charging instrument called an information, rather than a grand jury indictment.
An information is a type of charging instrument prosecutors typically use when the defendant plans to plead guilty.
