William Rogan Reid

William Rogan Reid, of Davie, Florida, was among the first rioters to break through a police line at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, rushing up steps toward the Northwest Courtyard, forcing through a second police line, climbing a set of bleachers to record video, and ultimately entering the Capitol building, where he damaged a television and a water cooler before fleeing after Ashli Babbitt was shot; he later spent months online describing himself as "Hitler on steroids," posting a meme captioned "I rushed the Capitol. Hi Feds," and expressing a desire to kill minorities. Following a trial in which he and the government agreed to a stipulated set of facts, he was convicted of felony obstruction of an official proceeding and corruptly altering or concealing a record or document, along with five related misdemeanors. He was sentenced on 12/7/2022 to 37 months of incarceration, 36 months of supervised release, $2,443 in restitution, and a $295 special assessment.
