Jeremy Christian Harrison to be sentenced at a later date
WASHINGTON – A Central Florida man has agreed to a plea deal in connection with his alleged involvement in the attack on the U.S. Capitol.
Jeremy Christian Harrison was arrested by FBI agents in February after they reviewed surveillance footage which they said showed Harrison walking into the Capitol with two other men.
He appeared in Ocala’s federal court on Feb. 9 facing charges of entering a restricted building and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds among other charges.
Investigators at the time said Harrison was very cooperative.
