As of Thursday, federal prosecutors have charged at least 205 people for their alleged roles in the Capitol riot and opened over 400 investigations into possible criminals.
Dozens have been charged with conspiracy, a charge that alleges defendants coordinated with others to commit an offense, including 16 Oath Keepers who have been indicted together in a single conspiracy case.
More than 350 were charged with entering or remaining in a restricted building or grounds, and more than 35 were charged with entering the Capitol with a dangerous or deadly weapon, the spokesperson said.
More than 25 defendants have been charged under a destruction of government property statute. During proceedings for three of those defendants, the government said their crimes amounted to terrorism an allegation that is not itself a charge but could influence prison sentences if they are found guilty.
"The Capitol Attack is likely the most complex investigation ever prosecuted by the Department of Justice," the government said in a court filing.
