More than 440 people have been charged with taking part in the Capitol siege, coming from all but six states with the most coming from Texas, Pennsylvania, and Florida, in that order.
Four months after the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol, FBI agents maintain a steady pace of arresting people accused of taking part, as one of the largest criminal investigations in American history keeps growing.
"We're not done rounding up the worst of the worst," said one law enforcement official. "We're not slowing down."

They didn't expect to get arrested but Ali did.
Someone will rat his ass out. I expect the Feds will at some point announce a reward for information about his whereabouts.
