KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A Blue Springs, Missouri, man faces five federal misdemeanors related to the Capitol riot after he was allegedly captured on video making threatening remarks to police officers and illegally remaining within the building.
John G. Todd III, 32, is the 21st Missouri resident to face criminal charges for participating in the Jan. 6 insurrection. A criminal complaint was unsealed Tuesday in the Western District of Missouri following his first court appearance.
According to court records, the FBI was contacted on May 6, 2021, by a person who claimed to have information confirming that Todd participated in the Capitol riot. The government witness, identified only as Individual 1, told agents that Todd had discussed traveling to Washington, D.C., while he was visiting a bar in Lee’s Summit.
