Descriptions

Feb 27, 2023
"On the morning of January 6, 2021, Fracker went to Robertson's house and together they drove with a neighbor, Person A, to the District of Columbia in Robertson's car. Robertson brought for their use three gas masks, and both Robertson and Fracker traveled with their police identification badges and Rocky Mount Police Department-issued firearms.
Robertson, Fracker, and Person A donned gas masks and approached the lower west terrace of the U.S. Capitol building... They joined an advancing mob of rioters armed with sticks and other paraphernalia. Robertson carried a large wooden stick or club...
At approximately 2:14 p.m. on January 6, 2021, Fracker entered the U.S. Capitol through the Senate Wing Door... After entering the building, Fracker looked for Robertson and then walked into the U.S. Capitol Crypt where he found Robertson. They took a selfie-styled photo making an obscene
gesture in front of the statue of John Stark. Robertson and Fracker exited the building together, reunited with Person A, and drove back to Rocky Mount, Virginia...
Following his time in the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, Fracker bragged to his friends on social media that he had taken a 'piss' in 'Nancy P's toilet,' referring to Nancy Pelosi, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, even though Fracker did not use a toilet in the Speaker's restroom that day."

"Fracker and Robertson were off duty when they drove with a neighbor to Washington, D.C., on the morning of Jan. 6. Fracker's indictment says Robertson brought three gas masks... After listening to speeches near the Washington Monument... Robertson was carrying a large wooden stick and used it to impede Metropolitan Police Department officers who arrived to help Capitol police officers hold off the mob, the indictment says. Fracker and Robertson posed for a photograph inside the Capitol during the attack and later posted about the riot on social media." - MICHAEL KUNZELMAN & JOHN RABY/Associated Press, Mar. 18, 2022
