Federal prosecutors may merge the January 6 Capitol riot cases against Chicago Police Officer Karol Chwiesiuk and his sister Agnes, documents show.
Court documents show images of Karol Chwiesiuk and his sister Agnes at the Capitol together that fateful day, but they were charged separately.There are ongoing plea talks and a potential plan to merge the federal cases against a Chicago police officer and his sister who were arrested on charges after the January 6 U.S. Capitol riot.
When glass shards and fists were flying, police were being bloodied and the U.S. Capitol was up for grabs, prosecutors said Karol Chwesiuk, a man sworn to serve and protect Chicagoans, was in the middle of the madness.His sister, pictured with him in court filings, wasn't arrested at the same time even though she asked federal agents, "are you going to arrest me too?"Now the siblings face similar charges in separate cases, but authorities appear to have other plans.
Prosecutors said if plea negotiations do not resolve Agnes Chwiesiuk's case the government plans to file superseding charges, adding her to her brother's case "given the overlap of the facts."
