A Maryland police officer was convicted on Friday of charges that he joined a mob's Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol and hurled a smoke bomb and other objects at police officers guarding a tunnel entrance.
Montgomery County police officer Justin Lee arrives to the U.S. Federal Courthouse in Washington, Friday, Aug. 23, 2024. A Maryland police officer was convicted on Friday of charges that he joined a mob's Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol and hurled a smoke bomb and other objects at police officers guarding a tunnel entrance.
Lee, of Rockville, Maryland, applied to be a Montgomery County police officer in July 2021 — six months after the riot. The department said it hired Lee approximately one year after the riot and didn’t know about his alleged involvement in the attack until July 2023, when it learned he was under FBI investigation.
“It would be bad policy to send a man to prison where the evidence fails to prove each element of an offense,” he wrote before the trial. On the day of last year's shooting, officers were responding to calls for a stabbing at a thrift store in Silver Spring, Maryland, when they confronted a suspect holding a butcher’s knife. The suspect ignored officers’ commands to drop the knife and lunged at Lee before the officer shot him, police said in a news release.
