'You're going to die tonight': Body-cam video shows Capitol riot suspect accused of dragging officer

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

WASHINGTON — A federal judge said he was "inclined" to order that a Jan. 6 Capitol riot suspect remain in detention on Monday after prosecutors presented video footage of the man dragging a police officer down the steps of the Capitol and into a mob and physically assaulting officers.

Jack Wade Whitton, a 30-year-old CrossFit instructor from Georgia, was identified by the government as the man in new officer-worn body camera footage also kicking officers and saying, "You're going to die tonight."

Assistant U.S. Attorney Colleen Kukowski argued on behalf of the government that Whitton, who remains in custody in Georgia, should not be released pending trial because he remains a threat to the public.

Prosecutors previously disclosed text messages Whitton allegedly sent to a confidential informant in which he boasted about the assault afterward.

1. Attempted murder, no other way to put it! n/t

[calimary]

8. And that's exactly what it should be called.

Attempted murder. FIVE people DIED that day, including a police officer. And another two cops were so hard-hit emotionally that they took their own lives.

2. Behave like a mad dog, lose your right to enter society.

3. Given that someone did die in the commission of that felony ...

life without parole.

4. Can't wait to read his "story". All those pussies are coming up with some real BS when busted

Looking for a bathroom,just wanted to see the inside of the Capitol. Blah,blah,blah...........

5. Judge better be more than "inclined" to keep this creep in the

pokey. Every thread about the riot of Jan 6th is worse and worse.

[bottomofthehill]

11. That's right

He better be more than inclined and keep that prick behind bars until trial. He is dangerous and he has shown his disregard for life.

[Haggard Celine]

6. Yeah, I hope that baloney is a nice bright shade of green.

[bucolic_frolic]

7. I could understand that's some pretty serious action and threat there

Throw the book at him!

9. One of the most violent and remorseless of the entire mob

This guy would absolutely be shooting people into a shooting pit during the Holocaust. Exactly the type. Keep him in jail until his trial, and then let him cool his heels in a federal penitentiary for a good while. Wade Whitton is a vicious and dangerous criminal.

10. What's with CrossFit and GOP/MAGAts?

This guy.

And three makes a pattern...

oh, and throw the book at this seditious traitorous murderer.

12. It occurred to me that this stuff is so disturbingly

egregious that maybe that is the intent. It just feels like there is a substantive element in this country right now that may actually feel they would benefit by stirring stuff up, by creating riots that then the media and “law abiding folk” can condemn and attack. I wonder: are they intentionally bringing things to a head, or is this just the natural course of things being what they are.
