3 active-duty Marines charged for participating in the Jan. 6 Capitol protest

Three active-duty Marines were charged in the Jan. 6 Capitol protest. They were arrested after fellow Marines helped investigators identify the suspects in a recorded video.

Dozens of people charged in the riot have military backgrounds, but these three are among only a handful on active duty. A Marine Corps officer seen on camera scuffling with police and helping other members of the mob force their way into the Capitol was charged in 2021.

No defense lawyers for the men were listed in the court docket, so it was not immediately clear whether they have attorneys to comment on their behalf.
