Case Summary
According to court documents, two people took videos of what they saw posted on Adam Honeycutt's Facebook page on Jan. 6, 2021, in case Honeycutt took the photos and videos down. A few days later, the FBI was reviewing those and other photographs and videos posted by Honeycutt, including pictures of a broken furniture leg with a sticker on it that read "U.S. SENATE SERGEANT AT ARMS" and multiple videos taken from inside and outside the Capitol building. In one video reviewed by law enforcement that appears to be from inside the Capitol, Honeycutt turns the camera on himself and says, "Well, made it in." On Jan. 10, 2021, Honeycutt posted on Facebook: "I was not part of the violence. I just documented history. Hell, I was at the food truck when the s*** hit the fan." According to local news reports, Honeycutt is a bail bondsman in Northeast Florida.
