Jacob Fracker, who previously served as a police officer in Rocky Mount, Virginia, pleaded guilty to conspiring to obstruct an official proceeding. Fracker admitted to storming the U.S. Capitol on January 6 in an effort to stop members of Congress from certifying Joe Biden as the winner of the 2020 presidential election. He now joins the224 other people who have pleaded guilty to charges stemming from the riot, according to the U.S. Department of Justice.

Fracker’s co-defendant, Thomas Robertson, is expected to head to trial on April 4.

According to the indictment against Fracker, he and Robertson both wore gas masks when breaking into the Capitol building. Robertson allegedly carried a wooden stick that he used to prevent Capitol police officers from apprehending them. The two were also joined by an unnamed neighbor.

The initial complaint against Fracker and Robertson stated that the men had admitted to their involvement in the Capitol riot on social media. The two took a photo together in front of a statue of John Stark with their middle fingers in the air. In a deleted Facebook post, Fracker is said to have posted “Lol to anyone who’s possibly concerned about the picture of me going around… Sorry I hate freedom?…Not like I did anything illegal…y’all do what you feel you need to…”

Robertson’s social media response was more direct, reportedly posting, “CNN and the Left are just mad because we actually attacked the government who is the problem and not some random small business … The right IN ONE DAY took the f***** U.S. Capitol. Keep poking us.”

Fracker and Robertson were both former Rocky Mount officers who had attended the Capitol riot together, according to The Roanoke Times. Both men were fired afterward. In August 2021, the duo denied plea agreements made by prosecutors, with the details of the agreements not being released. Details on the current agreement made between Fracker and prosecutors have also not been made public.

In a court filing obtained by the Associated Press, prosecutors expressed concern over the fact that Fracker and Robertson were police officers engaging in the Capitol riot, as they were breaking the law they swore to uphold.

“They broke this public trust when they participated in the riot at the U.S. Capitol,” wrote the prosecutors in their filing.

Fracker was also charged with obstruction of an official proceeding, aiding and abetting, entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds, disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted building or grounds, and violent entry and disorderly conduct in a Capitol building or grounds.
