Georgia Man Charged in U.S. Capitol Attack Dies By Suicide: report
A Georgia man who faced charges in connection to last week’s attack on the U.S. Capitol has died by suicide, 11Alive reports.
Christopher Stanton Georgia, 53, reportedly shot himself at his home in Alpharetta, Ga. on Saturday. He was found with a gunshot wound to the chest and died by suicide, The Fulton County Medical Examiner said, according to reports.
Officers removed two rifles from Georgia’s home and has labeled the death as “under investigation.”
Georgia had been charged with “entering certain property, that is, the United States Capitol Grounds, against the will of the United States Capitol Police” past the set Washington D.C. curfew of 6 p.m. local time. He was arrested with three other men.
Georgia pleaded not guilty to charges in D.C. Superior Court on Thursday.
Former President and current Republican Presidential Candidate Donald Trump, has been indicted and is facing 37 counts in connection with his alleged mishandling of classified documents. The 49-page document was unsealed Friday.
The indictment contains charges of the following: Willful retention of national defense information, conspiracy to obstruct justice, withholding a document or record, corruptly concealing a document or record, concealing a document in a federal investigation, scheme to conceal, and making false statements and representations.
Trump announced the indictment Thursday night on Truth Social, his social media platform:
“The corrupt Biden Administration has informed my attorneys that I have been Indicted, seemingly over the Boxes Hoax, even though Joe Biden has 1850 Boxes at the University of Delaware, additional Boxes in Chinatown, D.C., with even more Boxes at the University of Pennsylvania, and documents strewn all over his garage floor where he parks his Corvette, and which is ‘secured’ by only a garage door that is paper thin, and open much of the time.”
Trump declared himself an “INNOCENT MAN” and the subject of the “Greatest Witch Hunt of all time.” The Biden administration, he claimed, is ‘TOTALLY CORRUPT.”
The former president has argued that all the documents in question were declassified when he left the White House. “You’re the president of the United States, you can declassify just by saying it’s declassified, even by thinking about it,” he told Fox News host Sean Hannity in an interview last year.
Trump was on to Biden's deep corruption re Ukraine and wanted it investigated, so they impeached him.
Now that many of Biden's crimes are being exposed, naturally they're going to indict Trump again.
