An anti-Semitic Navy reservist with a high-level security clearance was arrested on allegations he participated in the Capitol riot with members of the Proud Boys, according to federal court filings.
Hatchet Speed, a petty officer first class in the U.S. Naval Reserve, was arrested Wednesday on misdemeanor charges related to the Jan. 6 Capitol insurrection.
Federal prosecutors have requested Speed be released to home detention with location monitoring. However, they want him in detention somewhere other than his permanent residence so he does not have access to any firearms. Speed and his friends did not initially intend to enter the Capitol, but after Vice President Mike Pence started the certification process, they felt betrayed and entered with hundreds of others, Speed told the agent.
At the time of his arrest, Speed was assigned to the Naval Warfare Space Field Activity at the National Reconnaissance Office , which is a part of the U.S. intelligence community.
