The arrest comes 17 months after Kelley traveled to Washington, D.C., for the Jan. 6, 2021, protests that preceded an attack on the U.S. Capitol and on the morning of the first hearing by the U.S. House committee investigating the riot. “At approximately 2:20 p.m., Kelley continued to gesture to the crowd, consistently indicating that they should move towards the stairs that led to the entrance of the U.S. Capitol interior spaces,” the complaint reads.
In May 2020, he wore identical clothing to the American Patriot Council “Judgement Day” rally in Lansing. The attire included a backward black hat, blue shirt and black coat. In June 2021, the Michigan Democratic Party promoted video footage that appeared to show Kelley shouting “Come on, let’s go! This is it! This is– this is war, baby!” as he moved toward the Capitol building.
