kept a lid on that video footage and in some cases, doj didn t share it with criminal defendants who d been charged on january snickets violation of their constitutional rights. so we felt it was a public service to bring what we could to you. there was no justification for keeping the secret any longer and a powerful argument to be made that sunlight is always and everywhere the best disinfectant. and in fact, because it was video evidence, it is, to some extent, self-explanatory. anyone could look at the tape and decide what he or she thinks of it. so the tape we showed last night indicated very clearly that capitol hill police in some cases escorted protesters through the capitol as if they were giving a tour. they did that with jacob chansley, the so-called qanon shaman. at one point, they tried to open locked doors on chansley s behalf. chansley was sentenced to four years in prison for his crimes in the capitol on january 6th. the video we showed you last night raises t
