Riley Williams, The Capitol rioter accused of swiping Nancy Pelosi’s laptop — with intention of giving it to Russia has been arrested.
According to CBS News, Williams’ former romantic partner called the FBI multiple times in the days following the riots to report that they had seen her in videos inside the Capitol, according to court documents. Her partner, referred to as Witness 1, allegedly said friends of Williams had shown them a video of her taking a laptop computer or hard drive from Speaker Pelosi’s office during the riot. The witness repeatedly told the FBI that Williams “intended to send the computer device to a friend in Russia, who then planned to sell the device to SVR, Russia’s foreign intelligence service.” However, the witness also said the plan “fell through for unknown reasons,” adding that Williams either still has the device or she destroyed it, the news site notes.
