Enrique Tarrio, the former leader of the far-right Proud Boys group who was convicted and then pardoned for his role in the January 6 insurrection, confronted a group of police officers who defended the Capitol during the attack, accusing one of them of being a coward.
A video shared by Tarrio on social media on Saturday showed him following the officers, Michael Fanone, Harry Dunn and Aquilino Gonell, through the lobby of a Washington hotel that was hosting the Principles First summit, a conference where one of the officers received a profile in courage award.
...
A few moments ago, we were upstairs, and Enrique Tarrio and the Proud Boys were upstairs, Gonell told conference attendees, prompting surprised gasps from the crowd. How they got into the building, I dont know, but its insane that we had to be subjected to their harassment now because they feel emboldened and empowered because of the pardons that they received.
We shouldnt be harassed for doing the right thing, for telling our story, for telling the truth, for speaking against them in court and in public. Theyre the traitor. Theyre the one who attacked the Capitol.
