march 21 2023 A Minnesota woman is awaiting trial in May for multiple federal charges stemming from Jan. 6, 2021.
Victoria White, 41, of Rochester is speaking out after new body camera video from that day was obtained by The Epoch Times. She joined Liz Collin Reports this week.
The video from inside the lower west terrace tunnel at the U.S. Capitol is difficult to watch. It shows White being struck dozens of times by police with a collapsible metal baton over the course of four minutes. She was also punched in the head and sprayed with mace.
“This video was not turned over to myself and my attorney with our discovery so we can prepare for our case, which is actually illegal,” White said.
The U.S. Department of Justice has charged White with six crimes, including violent entry and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds. In a statement of facts, the FBI says White helped “hoist up another rioter” so he could access the tunnel.
White pleaded not guilty to all of the charges.
“I was just there to see Trump. I felt that they would see there’s no way that he lost the election. I thought it would just be like a typical Trump rally. And I had no idea we were going to go to the Capitol,” she said. “It was a joyous time until we got to the Capitol.”
“There were no signs saying do not come. No police shutting anything down. All you saw was a massive amount of people just waving flags, singing,” she added.
