An individual detained at the Washington D.C. Jail in the wake of the January 6, 2021 U.S. Capitol protest was viciously raped at the hands of jail guards, according to Randy Ireland, a U.S. Air Force veteran advocating for an end of inhumane treatment and torture of January 6th political prisoners. Ireland stated that the information about the alleged rape “was relayed to me from a very, very, very reliable source.”
Ireland stated that the detainee was raped in retaliation for a complaint made by the detainee’s attorney to a DC Jail supervisor. The attorney complained that DC Jail guards were present during an earlier meeting between the detainee and the detainee’s attorney that was held at the jail, according to Ireland’s account. The jail guards’ presence at that meeting would have constituted a violation of attorney-client privilege.
Ireland made the statement during a January 6, 2022 interview on Caravan to Midnight, hosted by John B. Wells and carried by the Salem Radio Network. (Audio also available on Clouthub, time 2:40:23).
