Alleged Capitol rioter accused of stealing Nancy Pelosi s laptop has turned herself in.
Authorities have arrested Riley Williams for trespassing, violent entry and disorderly conduct, after being seen on video taking part in the Capitol attacks.
Federal Authorities say Williams former partner contacted the FBI, claiming Williams planned to give Pelosi s laptop or hard drive to a friend, who would turn it over to Russian intelligence, but the Russia plan fell through and Williams still has the laptop or she destroyed it.
The FBI says the theft allegation s still under investigation, and is sweeping America in arresting and charging those involved in the riots on Capitol Hill.

Federal officials are investigating people who took part in the riot at the US Capitol to determine whether they should be barred from travelling on airlines.
The assessments are one of several steps federal agencies are taking to increase security before President-elect Joe Biden s inauguration next week. The Transportation Security Administration said Friday it will put more air marshals on some flights, and travelers will see a noticeable increase in police officers, bomb-detecting dogs and random screening at all three major airports in the Washington, DC, area.
Videos of unruly airline passengers have been shared on social media since the attack on the US Capitol, many of them tagged with the #noflylist hashtag.
