Tarrio is the first person not present at the Capitol to be found criminally responsible at trial in the violence that injured scores of police, ransacked offices and forced the evacuation of lawmakers. The government alleged he watched from Baltimore after being expelled from D.C. one day earlier pending trial for burning a stolen Black Lives Matter flag at an earlier pro-Trump rally in Washington.
I think.this opens Trump and a host of its minions up to a tremendous amount of jeopardy.
How many levels between Tarrio and Trump? Publicly none - Stand back and stand by.
The fewer layers between he and Trump behind closed doors the better.

I don't believe Tarrio is the top of the sedition lobby.

Clarence Thomas and his wife? And perhaps Harlan Crow?

so some of those laws should apply here. Bin Laden wasn't in the US on 9/11 either but he was obviously responsible.

but for earlier stuff.
There was an informant who they were complaining about durng the trial when they found out about her. A different one was apparently used as a witness for the defense at some point.
