The family of Ashli Babbitt, the woman shot and killed during the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol, sued the city of Washington this month to obtain the identity of the officer who fired the fatal shot.

The family is also seeking video of the shooting and documents and witness statements from the Metropolitan Police Department, which investigated the incident, according to CNBC.

The lawsuit was filed last week in the Superior Court of the District of Columbia.

We live in a lawless time.

Law abiding citizens are beset by criminals and law enforcement.

By the time they get his identity, he’ll be safely back in Brazil where he will fade into the crowd under a new identity and never be heard from again.

Where are McCarthy and McConnell? They should be demanding this along with the entire GOP. The Reps in Congress are afraid to defend the Jan 6 protesters including those who have been apprehended and held in abysmal conditions. They are political prisoners.

Where are the Republicans standing shoulder to shoulder in the capital rotunda demanding an investigation?

Why is it only Democrats demand investigation?

This MIGHT get interesting. If they ever get a name it’ll break the media’s hold on the narrative. Maybe.

It would get interesting if Republicans united and demanded a congressional investigation.

Why don't Republicans demand investigations?

"Where are McCarthy and McConnell?"

You're really expecting a lot from those two losers. They only care about keeping themselves in office, not the murder of an innocent woman. Neither of them respects any of us enough to want to protect our votes, so why would they care that Ashli's death was by the hands of a Capitol Hill police officer?

My local Fox affiliate posted about this and all of a sudden the leftists don’t care about police accountability and talk how this shooting (which no one as seen body cam, CCTV, etc. footage of, etc) was justified and deserved.

If a Washington DC officer shot a unarmed black guy for trespassing they would demand he be arrested, fired, etc. in 24 hours.

Strange, how that works.

Maybe so they can keep getting invited to cocktail parties, or they are a bunch of gutless, spineless wimps. Maybe both.

You want to know why the french showed up in the thousands with pitchforks and torches? The U.S. gen pop isnt mad enough yet at the politicians. But it may be coming. And the roar of the crowd will be deafening when the rulers are dragged from thier homes and the capital building. Just saying, why do you think nazi p wants more barbed wire , concrete and solders perminatly installed in D. C.?

If she was killed, it wasn’t from a blank round to the hip.

There is zero evidence that he is from Brazil or who you think it is.

Wasn’t she ANTIFA?

I heard here on FR endlessly right after 1/6 and all through conspiratorial Patriot MSM about all of those on the Hill in the mob were simply Antifa disguised. Could not have been MAGA. Reichstag Fire set up and everything. And particularly anybody up on the front lines trying to break down barriers or break glass—as she clearly was, forced entry and what not. They’d clearly be Antifa.

If she’s Antifa, well then, what’s it to us? Why is FR trying to take up her cause? If Antifa then that is only one less of them we have to worry about. Right?

Because they either tacitly condone it.
Or, they have no principles or both.
