A right-wing radio host stole the baseball cap worn by a U.S. Capitol Police officer who defended Congress on Jan. 6 and wore it during a live stream of one of his broadcasts, federal authorities claimed in court papers released on Monday. Three witnesses who worked at his media outlet allegedly told the FBI that he boasted about stealing several other items from the officer and china plates from the building.
Charged under seal on Sept. 30, Global Enlightenment Radio Network host Darrell Neely was arrested on Monday, and court records show that three other people who worked with him at the radio station led the FBI to him. Those three witnesses each told authorities that they spoke to Neely on the day of the siege of the U.S. Capitol in video calls and a Facebook messenger chat.

A “Souvenir”

According to the FBI’s affidavit, the witnesses claimed Neely suggested that he stole multiple items that day, including a U.S. Capitol Police officer’s belongings and china plates allegedly pilfered from the building.

“Witness 1 stated that, on the first video call, Neely went inside the U.S. Capitol building and narrated events happening inside the building,” the affidavit states. “Although Witness 1 did not see Neely inside the Capitol building, Witness 1 recognized Neely’s voice as he narrated from inside the building.”

This first witness told the FBI that “Neely displayed china plates that he insinuated were from the Capitol building and a jacket that he claimed was a U.S. Capitol Police jacket” during the second video call.

“While on the second call, Witness 1 also stated that Neely displayed a black/dark-colored jacket with a silver badge on the left front and white lettering on the back and that Neely claimed it was a U.S. Capitol Police jacket,” the affidavit continues. “In addition, on the second call, Witness 1 saw Neely display two china plates that were cream and maroon in color, with either a symbol or lettering in the center of each plate. Witness 1 thought Neely insinuated that the items were taken from inside the Capitol building.”
