WASHINGTON—An FBI agent testified on Oct. 11 that he was not aware of any direct communications involving the Oath Keepers that would directly show that they planned to storm the Capitol on Jan. 6 and interfere with the certification of the Electoral College vote.
FBI Special Agent Justin Eller testified as part of the seditious conspiracy trial against four Oath Keepers members in a federal court in Washington. A defense lawyer asked Eller if, from all the Oath Keepers members’ and affiliates’ communications he reviewed, there were any that specifically read that the Oath Keepers were going to storm the Capitol.
“No,” Eller said.
The defense attorney then asked if there were any communications to prove that the Oath Keepers planned to stop the certification of electoral votes on January 6, 2021.
“No,” Eller said, and, after a pause, added, “directly.”
