CBSN
Washington — Michael Fanone, a D.C. Metropolitan Police officer, received a vulgar, threatening voicemail while testifying Tuesday before the House select committee investigating the January 6 assault on the U.S. Capitol, with an unidentified caller saying he wished the mob of rioters who breached the Capitol would have "killed all you scumbags."
In the roughly one-minute-long voicemail provided to CBS News by Fanone, which he received just before 10:30 a.m. Tuesday, the caller accused the officer of lying about the violence against him and other officers who defended the Capitol and repeatedly called him homophobic slurs. Fanone's voicemail was first reported by CNN. "You want an Emmy? An Oscar? What are you trying to go for here?" the male caller said. "You're so full of s**t, you little f****t f***er. You're a little p***y, man."More Related News
