A decide in Florida previously denied a request by Tarrio for pretrial launch, which is widespread within the U.S. legal system due to the presumption of innocence given to individuals accused of crimes. Tarrio requested Kelly to overview the Florida decide's order.

Prosecutors mentioned Tarrio maintained an active management function behind the scenes on Jan. 6, forcefully telling his followers on social media to not go away the Capitol, and later, within the encrypted chat, telling them: "We did this."
Tarrio's lawyer Nayib Hassan told reporters in March Tarrio left Washington, D.C. on Jan. 5, 2021 - a day before the assault on the Capitol.
"It's our estimation as far as what we've got reviewed proper now that the evidence is weak," Hassan mentioned.
