Joseph Brody

Joseph Brody, 24, of Springfield, Virginia, attended Trump's Ellipse rally before joining the storming of the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021 with friends, passing through the Crypt, the Senate chamber, and a conference room in then-Speaker Nancy Pelosi's office suite. He then went to the Capitol's North Door, where an officer was using a fire extinguisher to disperse rioters; Brody grabbed a metal barricade, lifted it over a concrete barrier, and shoved it into the officer, knocking him backward. He also took part in breaching barricades protecting a media staging area and destroying and looting news equipment. He pleaded guilty on Feb. 21 to civil disorder and assaulting, resisting, or impeding certain officers, and was sentenced to 18 months in prison, 36 months of supervised release, and $2,000 in restitution.
