RENSSELAER, Ind. — The man shot dead Sunday by Jasper County police while allegedly resisting arrest has been identified as 42-year-old Hobart, Indiana, resident Matthew W. Huttle, who was among those presumably pardoned last week by President Trump for his role in the Jan. 6, 2021 breach of the U.S. Capitol building.

Details are few as the shooting investigation continues, but state police said a deputy with the Jasper County Sheriff's Department stopped a vehicle around 4:15 p.m. Sunday on Ind. 14, east of County Road 475 East.

"During the traffic stop, the officer attempted to arrest the suspect when the suspect resisted," according to state police. "An altercation took place between the suspect and the officer, which resulted in the officer firing his weapon and fatally wounding the suspect."

It appears the stop was routine and the result of an alleged traffic violation, according to police.

"The investigation also shows that during the traffic stop, the suspect was in possession of a firearm," police said.

[Basso8vb]

1. Unsurprising.

[TheBlackAdder]

65. This is like the movie Final Destination. Cheat death & prison then Death & Prison finds you.

[RJ-MacReady]

3. Good riddance

[thomski64]

82. ..fantastic!

..fuck the swine...

[kerouac2]

4. Should be plastered all over news and social media

And tied to trump

One dead and an officer had to shoot someone all because of trump.

[Butterflylady]

64. This death is mr. Dumps fault.

He probably figured that he doesn't have to do anything because he has a get out of jail card free.

[pandr32]

5. Great job, Donvict!

[milestogo]

6. But he was a PATRIOT...

[RedWhiteBlueIsRacist]

7. Tourist shot dead by po-po. Should have complied.

[struggle4progress]

8. Crash on the Levee

... Well, it's sugar for sugar
And salt for salt
If you go down in the flood
It's gonna be your own fault ...

[Iris]

9. Real stand-up patriots

[Cha]

10. Hmm.. one less Domestic Terrorist

on the Planet.

I do wonder what he did to warrant being "arrested", though?

[Rebl2]

42. He resisted

arrest from what the article says. It was just a traffic violation, but guess when he resisted arrest that led to the shooting. He also had weapons which he likely wasn’t supposed to have.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

46. Unless he was convicted of a felony in a state court,

then he was allowed to own and possess firearms, a Presidential Pardon restores all rights, including the 2A.

[Rebl2]

47. Okay

[Cha]

49. Thanks, Reb..

I kept reading it over because it wasn’t clear to me why he was arrested a for Traffic violation?

And seemingly they found the gun after he Resisted and was killed.

In any case he was Stupid to resist But that’s who they are.

It was reported there weren’t many details.

[Mz Pip]

11. Freedom!

He would have been better off if he stayed in jail.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

12. Aww, what a shame,

meanwhile, back at the ranch..............

[BannonsLiver]

13. Hate to see that.

[spanone]

14. I guess they all learned a lesson....

[MarineCombatEngineer]

16. In this case, the lesson learned by this MAGAt is binding and final.

[spanone]

19. 👍🏼

[DemocratSinceBirth]

15. He was better off in the hoosegow.

[Maru Kitteh]

17. Awww, an' Trump was gonna invite him to the White House an' everything.

Tots. Pears.

[Seinan Sensei]

36. Maybe he still could go to the White House

Think “Weekend at Bernie’s”

[Maru Kitteh]

57. I like your style!

[H2O Man]

18. Recommended.

I hope he is okay.

[JoseBalow]

27. It wasn't a "traffic stop"

It was a "day of love"

[H2O Man]

29. "All you need is love."

20. Matthew Huttle - Pardoned while serving a 30-month sentence for assaulting law enforcement.

https://www.justice.gov/usao-dc/pr/indiana-man-sentenced-prison-assaulting-law-enforcement-dangerous-weapon-during-jan-6

[MarineCombatEngineer]

21. Now he's serving a more permanent sentence, like forever in hell.

[Horse with no Name]

22. That was instant karma

Idiot.
I bet his family sues the federal government for letting him out of his sentence.

[Ocelot II]

23. And just last week another one was arrested on a gun charge

based on a previous felony conviction for which he hadn't been pardoned.

We will see more and more of these as these jagoffs get into trouble all over again.

[orangecrush]

24. ...

?si=HkjfS6ZkE6TlzR1n

[paleotn]

69. Beat me to it!!!

[JoseBalow]

25. Karma

[Sneederbunk]

26. Another "tourist" goes down.

Apparently, he did not get the last laugh.

[Wingus Dingus]

28. Fucked around with the wrong officer this time, found out pretty instantaneously.

[sop]

79. They're not all as tolerant as the Capitol Police.

[orleans]

30. he probably thought since trump pardoned him that he was now invincible and could do anyfuckingthing he wanted to do nt

[Dem2theMax]

59. This! ⬆️

They all think they have a get out of jail for free card for the rest of their lives.

Mango Mussolini set them free. The laws don't apply to them, in their own heads.

[videohead5]

31. One of these crazies that he pardoned

Is going to hurt someone or kill someone. It's just a matter of time. The blood will be on Trump's hands.

[Emile]

32. I knew it was just a matter of time before these idiots get into trouble again.

One cop beater down and many more to come.

[AverageOldGuy]

33. 2 down, 1498 to go

1500 pardoned

One shot resisting arrest.
One arrested on firearms charge.

1498 to go.

[Sailingfish]

34. Cheering this guy's death is the height of hypocrisy and not a good look for the left.

Police brutality and out of control force by the cops transcends political division. The cops work for the ruling class first and foremost. Their main purpose is to enforce ruling class laws and ruling class authority. What happens to Huttle can easily happen to anyone in the rank and file if you "step out of line" or "resist" in any way. Especially if you happen to be black, brown, or "illegal."

[MarineCombatEngineer]

35. LOL.

[AverageOldGuy]

37. Thank you for sharing your opinion

I'm cheering.

1500 pardoned, one shot resisting arrest, one arrested within hours of release on a previous charge = 1498 to go.

I live in a rural Virginia county where two of those assholes returned from jail this weekend to a huge welcome put together by the local Republican Party. We Democrats are threatened with firearms, vehicles vandalized, middle fingers and curses wherever we go -- I'll cheer every time one of the 1498 remaining is done in.

[Sailingfish]

41. Yep. Opinions vary.

Of course I would hope that there are those that would have the same viewpoint. If they don't, I can't control that. They are welcome to their own views.

[Emile]

39. When it comes to justice for these traitors, the last thing I worry about is how the left looks!

[Sailingfish]

43. Hyperbole is not a political program.

[Emile]

45. So wanting justice for the traitors who tried to overthrow our government is now hyperbole?

Enjoy your stay.

[Sailingfish]

52. Guy already did his time for taking part in a riot.

This guy getting taken out by the cops is an entirely different matter. Beyond that, the Bush and Cheney regime overthrew "our government" and yet the Democratic Party leadership gladly accepted the endorsement of Cheney. And it's a funny thing about "our government." A lot of rank and file people well realize that they've never had a seat at the table or a real voice in the matters of "our government."

[MarineCombatEngineer]

53. No, he didn't serve his full sentence,

he was still on probation when he was pardoned.

Both Huttles were sentenced for storming the Capitol. Matthew Huttle was sentenced to six months in federal prison followed by 12 months on supervised release. His prison term ended on July 17, 2024, according to federal records.

Quite frankly, I don't give 2 figs about someone who tried to overthrow our legitimately elected Govt.

[tanyev]

55. Why didn't he just comply?

[Sailingfish]

63. I don't know the details.

"Resisting" is a shop worn catchall that the cops use on a daily basis to cover for their rampant abuse of power they have over the masses. Should I even have to make this point after the numerous deaths at the hands of the police that the left protested.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

75. So, you don't know the details but are willing to pass judgement on the Deputy?

Hypocrisy in action.

[Sailingfish]

80. Sorry, that kind of sophistry in defense of authoritarianism won't work

I never give the authoritarian tentacles of the ruling class the benefit of the doubt until proven otherwise. Some people bow to that authority without question and then mewl and complain when that authoritarianism is unleased on them. Can't have it both ways.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

58. BTW, this wasn't a "riot"

J6 was an out and out insurrection with the intent to overthrow the duly elected Govt. and install Been A Dick Donald.
BTW, welcome to DU, enjoy your stay.

[Sailingfish]

87. Millions from across the political spectrum disagree. Sorry

[MarineCombatEngineer]

90. So, you're basically saying that this wasn't an insurrection or a coup?

You're saying that this was a riot?
I don't give a flying fig what millions say, this was an out and out attempt by Been A Dick Donald to foment a coup and install him back into the WH as a Dicktator and this former waste of O2 was part of it no matter what his role in this insurrection was.

[Sailingfish]

92. You can believe whatever you want.

There does seem to be some problem with you accepting that others might have a different view of what went down on more than a few things. It is what it is in that regard. Cheers

[MarineCombatEngineer]

93. You can believe whatever you want to believe, that's your right,

but I will call you out on your BS when appropriate, as in this case.

[58Sunliner]

61. Take the win!! It may have been justified. He has a history of extremist violence.

[Sailingfish]

67. Nobody wins by supporting things one claims to oppose. George Floyd anyone ?

You have a link of this guy's history of extremist violence put it up. Far as I can tell it was his uncle that was involved in physical altercation at the Capitol. He got three years. This guy was mostly a bystander and a lesser sentence.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

71. As I live and breathe,

someone here on DU actually defending someone who tried to overthrow our duly elected Govt and install Been A Dick Donald through violent means.


You've just pretty much outed yourself.

[Sailingfish]

88. I'm not defending anything. I'm questioning everything.

Some people should try it sometime and they might have a better grasp why the Democratic Party lost the election to an authoritarian circus clown.

[Emile]

74. . . . Pizza almost ready.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

77. Tombstone or DiGiorno?

Either or would be fine with me.

[58Sunliner]

81. He isn't George Floyd. Just stop.

As for being a bystander at an insurrection, hogwash. "Matthew Huttle declared, “We’re going to see if we can get inside!” As the two men drew closer to Capitol grounds, Matthew Huttle said, “We’re going to be stopped here, I don’t think we’re going to get close. We’re going to have to go up the side . . . . Cops, a lot of cops,” to which Dale Huttle responded, “I think we ought to bum rush the Capitol building! Arrest them all. We’ve got enough people to do that.” His uncle was later busy assaulting cops with a flag pole. What did Matthew do? Stop him? If he had stayed on public areas as a lawful visitor, he would have been a bystander. I won't assume the cop did something illegal until I actually get the facts. The same thing I do when anyone gets shot by the police, no matter what color their skin is.

[58Sunliner]

98. Don't bother trying to gaslight me. I watched it live on tv.

Which part wasn't coordinated? All the buses? Money for people to come? Meetings from Trump et al and members of the various groups? Tours of congress? The implicit instructions given to the Capital Police, the National Guard and DC Police? Installment of tools at both the DOD and DOJ? Bombs? Trump delaying the National Guard call? All boxes checked.
Anytime you have to move the goal posts to try to win your argument, you've failed. Could not care less what revisionist history the FBI cobbled together. Enjoy your stay here.

[Maru Kitteh]

66. Thanks for taking time away from infrastructure week to talk to us.

[Sailingfish]

70. Right, because any view you don't agree with must be coming from the right. Laughable.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

72. Hey, you said it.

[Sailingfish]

76. Yeah well...

Seeing some of the responses in this thread makes one wonder what the reaction would of been to the aftermath of Haymarket.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

78. This thread has zero to do with the Haymarket incident.

If you want to discuss the Haymarket incident, then start your own thread.

[Sailingfish]

86. Really ?

My long time observation has been that some in the Democratic Party despise the radical labor left as much as they do Trump, his supporters and the right. Mitchell Palmer and the Palmer Raids ring a bell ?

[MarineCombatEngineer]

91. Perhaps I wasn't clear enough, if that's the case, then I apologize for not making myself crystal clear,

This Is A Thread About An Insurrectionist that was killed by a Jasper County Deputy Sheriff because he resisted being arrested.

[Sailingfish]

94. And I made perfectly clear in my initial post the issue with cheering this guy's death.

When it comes to the cops and ruling class authority abusing their power and position in arrests that turn into deadly force, an "injury to one is an injury to all", regardless of political affiliation. That's my view at least. As I say. You're welcome to yours. When it comes to "the thin blue line", the narrative and account of what took place is often far from the reality of what actually did. Seems the guy had a pretty serious drinking problem and not much history of "extremist violence" as someone else in this thread said. I'm at a loss at how gleefully cheering this guy's death advances anything in any case. Take care.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

95. Wash, rinse and repeat.

BTW, in an earlier post you said that he had served his time and I pointed out to you that he hadn't.
Any comment on that?

[Sailingfish]

96. He served the six months in the joint.

The rest was twelve months supervised probation from what I read. The pardon erased that as you said. How is it relevant to the use of deadly force in a traffic stop ?

[MarineCombatEngineer]

97. Because it would still be on the computer

and would raise the hackles of any LEO, especially with a firearm involved.
BTW, 12 months of Probation is still serving his time, whether he's in prison or not.

[Emile]

83. Strawman argument is

refuting an argument different from the one actually under discussion.

[FakeNoose]

38. I was hoping his name would have been "Willie Horton"

[Godot51]

40. It is likely...

... that in his weak, maga, mind he believed he had been pardoned for all crimes, past, present, and future.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

44. Oh he got pardoned alright,

the kind of pardon that will last an eternity.

[twodogsbarking]

48. He had the right to remain silent but he didn't have the ability.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

50. ....

[nuxvomica]

51. Karma, poetic justice, or maybe... The Trump Curse

Have you noticed how everything he touches dies? Everyone who remains loyal to him suffers? (eg. Rudy Guliani) I'm not sure I believe in curses but it would be a good meme to get going.

[flvegan]

54. Oh no!

Anyway.

[58Sunliner]

56. Gee that's too bad. I guess that pardon gave him the idea that he was above the law.

I have a feeling he won't be the only one.

[Jilly_in_VA]

60. Somehow

I think this is just the first of many.

[drmeow]

62. thoughts and prayers nt

68. Someone queue Freddie!

[ProudMNDemocrat]

73. I posted some replies to Frank Figliuzzi's Bluesky post on this.

Mess around with cops, find out that no matter your status, you can and will lose your life.

What was this guy thinking? He was armed as well! Law abiding citizen according to the NRA? He fucked around and found out the fatal way.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

99. And this jackwagon had state DUI felony convictions,

so he was banned from owning or possessing any firearms.

[surfered]

85. The facts are unclear in this case; however, several of those pardoned had legal problems prior to Jan 6th and a few..

have had problems since. When Trump called his supporters to the Capital, they did not send their best.

[mimitabby]

89. One down... nt
