   Rioter Who Helped Drag Officer Down U.S. Capitol Steps Tried to Flee to   
   Switzerland: Feds   
      
      
      
      
   A man who helped drag a police officer down the U.S. Capitol steps tried   
   to flee to Switzerland after the day of the siege and then, in what   
   authorities called a different type of flight effort, attempted suicide,   
   prosecutors told a judge on Friday.   
      
   Describing the case as “very disturbing,” a federal magistrate denied   
   bail to Jeffrey Patrick Sabol, a 51-year-old divorced geophysicist with   
   three children. Patrick has not been charged with assault but rather   
   under a civil disorder statute barring any effort to “obstruct, impede,   
   or interfere” law enforcement.   
      
   U.S. Magistrate Judge Andrew E. Krause called the allegations against   
   Sabol “deeply troubling,” ultimately denying him bail following an   
   hourlong hearing. Sabol’s defense counsel requested his home confinement   
   secured by hundreds of thousands of dollars, but the judge was   
   unpersuaded that the money or other set of conditions could hold him.

   A federal judge has denied the social media platform Parler's request to   
   force Amazon Web Services to put its site back online while a lawsuit   
   against the company is ongoing, Forbes reports. According to the court,   
   the platform favored by right-wing users has "fallen far short" of   
   proving the credibility of its legal claims.   
      
   "The Court explicitly rejects any suggestion" by Parler that Amazon is   
   obligated "to host the kind of abusive, violent content at issue in this   
   case, particularly in light of the recent riots at the U.S. Capitol,"   
   U.S. District Judge Barbara Jacobs Rothstein wrote in her ruling. "That   
   event was a tragic reminder that inflammatory rhetoric can—more swiftly   
   and easily than many of us would have hoped—turn a lawful protest into a   
   violent insurrection."

   The daughter who publicly ID'd her own mother as a bloodied participant   
   in the Capitol riots feels some guilt for calling her mom out ... but   
   says she doesn't regret it, for several reasons.   
      
   Helena Duke joined "TMZ Live" Monday to add some context to why she   
   decided to out her mother, Therese Duke, in a viral clip where Therese   
   gets punched by a security guard outside the Capitol after the insurrection.   
      
   Helena says her mom lied to her about her whereabouts on January 6 --   
   claiming she was getting a medical procedure -- so she wouldn't have   
   known Therese attended the riots ... if not for the video of her getting   
   punched.
