2020 ELECTION/CIVIL UNREST: “A Capitol riot suspect was persuaded to storm the building on Jan. 6 after spending hours watching Fox News and listening to former President Donald Trump’s election fraud lies, his lawyer said…
Joseph Hurley, a Delaware-based lawyer, blamed Antonio’s behavior on him watching Fox News too much…
Hurley said that because Antonio is patriotic, he believed that supporting Trump ‘was doing the patriotic thing.’ So when the former president told his supporters to swarm the Capitol, Antonio made the 13-hour drive from Chicago, where he was living at the time, to D.C.”
