The Portland Press-Herald reports:

A federal judge in Washington, D.C. has found a Lebanon man who participated in the storming of the U.S. Capitol guilty of assaulting two officers who were guarding the building that day, as well as trying to prevent the certification of the 2020 presidential election.

U.S. District Judge Rudolph Contreras read his decision Tuesday, finding Kyle Fitzsimons, 38, guilty on 10 out of the 11 charges he faced, including assaulting Capitol Police Sgt. Aquilino Gonell and attempting to injure Metropolitan Police Officer Sarah Beaver with a deadly weapon.

Cultists have so far raised over $23,000 for Fitzsimons on the Christian crowdfunding site GiveSendGo.

The drive was founded by his mother, who writes:



Whatever thoughts you hold on the events of January 6th, I’m certain we can agree the egregious violations of due process rights guaranteed by the Constitution that must be afforded to every American have been denied to the J6 Patriots sitting in DC jails, without access to speedy trials, time outdoors, clean drinking water, or the right to gather for worship. If you can stand in the gap and cover Kyle in prayers of protection, it is deeply appreciated. If you can assist his family financially, we thank you and God bless you. Please continue praying that God’s favor remains on Kyle. Pray no false witness will prosper against him. Pray for the judge. May the Almighty grant that the cause of truth, justice, and humanity in no way suffer at his hands.
