Kernersville’s Charles Donohoe faces charges of conspiracy, obstruction, destruction of government property and disorderly conduct connected to the Jan. 6 violence at the U.S. Capitol. He has pleaded not guilty.
WASHINGTON — The man who rammed a car into two officers at a barricade outside the U.S. Capitol, killing one of them before he was shot to death by police, had been suffering from delusions, paranoia and suicidal thoughts, a U.S. official told The Associated Press on Saturday. Investigators believe it was an isolated incident from a disturbed young man.
The suspect was a one-time college athlete whose troubling recent behavior included bizarre social media posts and rampant paranoia. The victim was an 18-year veteran of the U.S. Capitol Police, a familiar and friendly figure inside the Washington, D.C. landmark.
Friday's deadly breach of the Capitol's perimeter could delay the gradual return to more normal security measures following the Jan. 6 insurrection.
John Bost seems precisely the kind of person that his fellow Americans could have a conversation with — politically moderate, neither an Obama voter nor a Trump one, willing to engage with those both more liberal and more conservative than he is, the former mayor of the North Carolina town where he has lived for more than a quarter century.
