Case Summary
The FBI identified Raul Eduardo Jarrin as having been present at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, after a search warrant served to Google showed a cellphone associated with his email address was there that day, court documents indicate. The FBI then interviewed Jarrin in July 2021, and Jarrin allegedly admitted to having been there that day but denied that he entered the Capitol.
