WASHINGTON - Richard Barnett, 60, of Gravette, Arkansas, appeared in a photo taken last Wednesday inside the U.S.
Capitol after a violent, pro-Trump mob stormed the building and ransacked lawmakers’ offices. In the photo, Barnett could be seen inside House Speaker Nancy' Pelosi's private office, draping his leg across her desk.
By Tuesday, Barnett had made a different sort of appearance — in federal court.Barnett appeared before U.S. Magistrate Judge Erin Wiedemann in Fayetteville on Tuesday to hear the charges against him.
