And on the night of Jan. 6, 2021, the Mountlake Terrace man searched “boy that escalated quickly,” according to court papers.

Earlier that day, security footage caught Stickney among hundreds of others illegally entering the Capitol to stop Congress from certifying President Joe Biden’s victory, according to charges filed earlier this month in U.S. District Court in Washington D.C.

Authorities arrested Stickney last week in Seattle. Federal prosecutors charged him on four counts: entering and remaining in a restricted building, disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted building, disorderly conduct in a Capitol building and parading, demonstrating or picketing in a Capitol building.
