Five members of a Texas family have been charged for their alleged participation in the January 6 riot in the U.S. Capitol.
So far, more than 500 individuals have been arrested in the attack on the Capitol. There have been several married couples and a number of parent-and-children teams included in the list. Some of them were sets of siblings, charged with their participation in the Capitol riot.
However, on Tuesday, the Justice Department unsealed an unusual complaint. Included in the complaint were almost the entire family from Texas.

Key figures in the Jan. 6 riot on U.S. Capitol spoke about their desire to overthrow the government, but to date, U.S prosecutors have charged no one with sedition. They could still add them. But prosecutors may be reluctant to bring them because of their legal complexity and the difficulty in securing convictions. (AP Photo/John Minchillo, File) (Copyright 2021 The Associated Press.
