Defense attorneys for Henry “Enrique” Tarrio said federal prosecutors threatened a police lieutenant to prevent him from testifying as a key defense witness at their upcoming seditious conspiracy trial in the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol.
A D.C. police spokesman declined to comment on the matter, citing the ongoing federal investigation.
The statement adds that Lamond’s “decorated career has been to protect this city and this nation and he has never done anything to assist the criminals who attacked our democracy on January 6th.”Tarrio, of Miami, was not in the District the day of the riot and has denied wrongdoing or that his group planned to commit violence that day.
Lamond could support Tarrio and four co-defendants’ claims of innocence from criminally conspiring to obstruct Congress confirmation of the 2020 election or prevent Joe Biden’s inauguration by force, Jauregui said.But at 5:33 a.m. on Friday, weeks before jury selection is set to start Dec. 19, Lamond’s attorney emailed saying the lieutenant may be unavailable because of the threat of incriminating himself, Jauregui said. Lamond’s attorney confirmed he sent the email.
