Slinker was allegedly among the first group of rioters in the conference room that day, according to recently unsealed court documents.
https://lawandcrime.com/high-profile/whos-gonna-hack-it-jan-6-rioter-who-stole-nancy-pelosis-laptop-now-facing-charges-feds-say/
On a table was Pelosis Hewlett-Packard 640 G5 laptop with a sticky note with possible handwritten computer passwords affixed to it, court documents said.
...................
A fellow rioter, Maryann Mooney-Rondon, encouraged him to take the computer, saying, It would be interesting to see whats on that hard drive, court documents said.
Mooney-Rondons son, Rafael Rondon, added, just do it without no no fingerprints there, court documents said.
Slinker then allegedly closed the laptop with his elbows and tried to move it, court documents said. Slinker then allegedly used a knit or fleece glove to manipulate the cables connected to the laptop. Another rioter wearing gloves reached under Slinkers arm and appeared to unplug the ethernet cable attached to the laptop, according to court documents.
Someone else nearby yelled, Dude, put on gloves. Mooney-Rondon then reached over to assist, according to court documents.
Rondon assisted Slinker in taking the laptop by disconnecting cables from it and placing the device into Slinkers backpack, the document said. Slinker then hoisted the backpack onto both shoulders as he left the conference room and exited the building at 2:37 p.m. through the Memorial Doors, court documents said.. ...............
The backpack-wearing David Slinker is accused of taking then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosis laptop from a conference room at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. (U.S. Attorneys Office).

Then made part of the Gaetz DOJ round up team.
Mark my word, many of those pardoned will get on our gubment payroll, as tens of thousands of people will be fired to balance the budget.
Think. Again.
