Kellye SoRelle, a Texas attorney for the far-right militia group the Oath Keepers, has been indicted on four counts related to the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, according to federal prosecutors. She was arrested in Junction on Thursday morning.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia in part alleges SoRelle destroyed and hid potential evidence to obstruct the criminal investigation into the Capitol attack, indicting her on a charge of tampering with documents. She is also charged with conspiracy to obstruct and obstruction of Congress’ certification of President Joe Biden’s win during the 2020 elections, as well as being inside the Capitol during the insurrection.
