Three Jan. 6 suspects were arrested at a ranch in Florida on Saturday, the FBI said – including one who has been sought ever since the 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol and two who never showed up for trial, court records show.

The FBI’s Tampa field office said three Jan. 6 fugitives – Jonathan Daniel Pollock, Olivia Michele Pollock and Joseph Daniel Hutchinson III – were taken into custody early Saturday morning, three years after the assault on the U.S. Capitol.

The FBI executed three federal arrest warrants at a ranch in Groveland, it said. No further details on their capture were available.

    Joseph Hutchinson, 27, a co-defendant of the Pollocks who worked at their Lakeland, Florida, gun store, is wanted for assaulting officers and unlawful entry to the Capitol.

    He is accused of throwing punches at police during the uprising and pleaded not guilty to the charges against him before absconding.

    In December 2021, a judge allowed Hutchinson to travel to Florida to serve as the best man at the wedding of another person accused of being involved in the uprising.

    So that idiot judge is getting punished for being an idiot right? I know they won’t, but fuck, what an idiot.

      $100 I can bet what political party this judge is.

      You should always be at least a little bit worried about the FBI hunting you. Granted, if you haven’t participated in an insurrection against the United States government the chances of them hunting you decrease substantially.

        Of all the potential things that I have even the slightest reason to be worried about, this is still probably among the least.

      Don’t worry, you’ve done something that they’d arrest you for. Everyone has, that’s the game.

    What’s the term, is it ‘gaggle’?

    A gaggle of terrorists… idk it fits but doesn’t sound quite right.

    I bet there’s a lot of people who have spent the past two years looking over their shoulder after taking part. Tons of photos are still up of people who they’re after or want more info on

    Whenever I hear about the attempts of these people to flee, it’s hilarious.

    This trio picked the most comically obvious place to, “hide” next to maybe Missouri or Mississippi, that being Desantisland…

    That brother/sister duo are probably procreating together. :/

      They eluded arrest for 3 years. Dumb asses when it comes to falling for con men, but gotta give credit where credit is due.

        Yes. Three years of sweet freedom stuck on a ranch in sweaty Florida always worried about getting arrested. Truly la dolce vita.

    How do i stop getting posts about this unless they are convictions? Arrests don’t mean justice can’t be happy with just people version of catch and release

    Thank you SCB for correcting my perception of this issue
