Unsuccessfully Tried to Delete Evidence
A former Houston Police Department (HPD) officer was charged with multiple federal crimes on Tuesday after allegedly lying about his participation in the January 6 siege of the U.S. Capitol Complex.
Eighteen-year (HPD) veteran Tam Dinh Pham was placed on administrative leave last week after allegedly participating in the pro-Trump attack. Pham resigned his position after his name was leaked to the press. Now, the newly-former cop is facing felony prison time.
Pham initially told [federal agents] he was in Washington, D.C. from January 5 7, 2021 for business reasons, a statement of facts obtained by Law&Crime alleges. He stated that he briefly attended President Trumps rally on January 6, 2021 but initially denied going to the Capitol building.
According to the Joint Terrorism Task Force (JTTF), Pham made additional efforts to conceal his alleged attendance at the Capitol riots prior to their arrival.

I just don't understand that thinking. I could never devote myself to any politician or ideal like that. It's just not in me. When those prison door slam home. I hope he reflects on everything he gave up for Trump.
