The U.S. Capitol Police (USCP) have completed their internal investigation into the officer who shot and killed Ashli Babbitt during the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, and found that the officer’s conduct was lawful.
“After interviewing multiple witnesses and reviewing all the available evidence, including video and radio calls … USCP’s Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) determined the officer’s conduct was lawful and within Department policy, which says an officer may use deadly force only when the officer reasonably believes that action is in the defense of human life, including the officer’s own life, or in the defense of any person in immediate danger of serious physical injury,” the Capitol Police said in a statement on Monday.
The officer will not be identified nor face any disciplinary action, according to USCP.
“This officer and the officer’s family have been the subject of numerous credible and specific threats for actions that were taken as part of the job of all our officers: defending the Congress, Members, staff and the democratic process,” the statement continued.
During the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, Babbitt had attempted to climb through a broken window into the Speaker’s Lobby when she was shot in her left shoulder by the Capitol Police officer.
“The actions of the officer in this case potentially saved Members and staff from serious injury and possible death from a large crowd of rioters who forced their way into the U.S. Capitol and to the House Chamber where Members and staff were steps away,” Capitol Police said.
“USCP Officers had barricaded the Speaker’s Lobby with furniture before a rioter shattered the glass door. If the doors were breached, the rioters would have immediate access to the House Chambers. The officer’s actions were consistent with the officer’s training and USCP policies and procedures.”

The U.S. Attorney for Washington, D.C., announced in April that no criminal charges against the officer would be pursued, due to “insufficient evidence” following the prosecutor’s and Metropolitan Police Department’s investigation.
Former President Trump said in a statement earlier this month that Babbitt “was murdered at the hands of someone who should never have pulled the trigger of his gun. […]

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
