News outlets ask for access to Sicknick assault videos shown in court
CNN
A coalition of 14 major national media outlets, including CNN, is asking a federal court to make public police body camera and other close-up footage of rioters attacking Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick and other police with bear spray outside the US Capitol on January 6.
The 10 video clips, shown by the Justice Department at a court hearing this week, have become public records and are key to a major criminal case against two men accused in the assault of the police, lawyers for the media companies wrote to the court. The clips are also the most graphic depictions publicly seen so far of the attack, and of Sicknick's reaction to it.More Related News
