Two Tennessee men are facing federal charges for planning to attack law enforcement in retaliation for the arrest of one of the men at the U.S. Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021.
The Department of Justice said in a news release Friday that Edward Kelley, 33, of Maryville, Tennessee, and Austin Carter, 26, of Knoxville, Tennessee, were charged with conspiracy, retaliating against a federal official, interstate communication of a threat, and solicitation to commit a crime of violence. Kelley and Carter appeared in court Friday and were detained. Carter has a court hearing set for Wednesday.
Kelley is facing charges in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia related to an alleged assault on a law enforcement officer during the breach of the Capitol Building. In the latest complaint, the DOJ said Kelley obtained a list of law enforcement personnel who participated in that criminal investigation.
