The FBI released a new batch of records about its Capitol Hill uprising investigation on Monday, revealing that investigators identified a "Person of interest" in its Jan. 5/6 pipe bombs investigation within days of the incident.
The extremely faded report is difficult to read, but it appears to state: "FBI WF and USCP have identified a person of interest who may be a match to the description of the individual placing the bombs, and continue efforts to identify through surveillance footage."
The FBI released records yesterday, showing that by Jan. 10, 2021, the bureau had "Identified a person of interest who may be a match to the description of the individual" who placed the pipe bombs near the RNC and DNC. What happened to this person of interest?
The FBI declined to comment in response to Headline USA's questions about what happened to the person of interest, including whether the person was cleared or is still under investigation.
"We don't have any comment on the documents. The pipe bomb investigation remains ongoing," an FBI spokesperson told this outlet.
The FBI has been extremely tight-lipped on its pipe bomb investigation, and most of the revealtions have come via congressional investigations or other agencies, such as the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
Massie's revelation followed an interview he and other House Judiciary Committee members conducted with former FBI official Steven D'Antuono, who oversaw the bureau's pipe bomb investigation until he retired last November.
