Patrick Montgomery was allowed to return home to Colorado after he allegedly stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 and kicked a police officer, but federal prosecutors have filed a motion to revoke his release after he posed for a photo with the 170-pound mountain lion he killed, reported the Washington Post.
"Given that Montgomery has repeatedly and flagrantly violated both state and federal law while on pretrial release in this case including by possessing and using a firearm the Government respectfully requests that the Court revoke his release pending trial," prosecutors said in the motion.

Why any of them are out on bail is beyond me.

Part of the bail problem IMO is "the War on Drugs" has packed our jails. From local to federal.
