A recent report has surfaced, raising significant questions about the identity of the individual responsible for placing pipe bombs in Washington, D.C., on January 6, 2021. The analysis claims a match of 94 to 98 percent between the gait of the suspect and that of Shauni Rae Kerkhoff, a former Capitol Police officer. Kerkhoff, who has since worked in campus security for the CIA, presents a controversial link in a case that remains unresolved nearly four years later.
The pipe bombs were found near the Republican and Democratic National Committees just before the chaos at the Capitol unfolded. Importantly, they never detonated, but their presence contributed to the turmoil of the day. Blaze Media, which published the report, claims a thorough evaluation of security footage supports this conclusion about Kerkhoff’s gait. According to Glenn Beck, founder of Blaze Media, this analysis could lead directly to identifying the suspect.
The narrative becomes more alarming with insights from former FBI Special Agent Kyle Seraphin. He indicated he was conducting surveillance nearby and expressed strong frustration at the FBI’s handling of the situation. “The FBI put us one door away from the pipe bomber… and we were deliberately pulled away for no logical or logically investigative reason,” Seraphin said. His comments raise suspicions not only about the event itself but about possible cover-ups involving law enforcement.
Furthermore, the report includes claims that snippets from Capitol Police CCTV footage matched unedited video of the bomber. However, the sources behind these assertions remain unnamed, leaving some skeptical of the findings. Former Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund emphasized he had no knowledge of any officers being connected to the planting of the devices. “I had no knowledge that it was being carried out, nor were they carrying it out with any authorization from the chief’s office,” Sund clarified, underlining the lack of transparency surrounding this inquiry.
The Congressional Subcommittee on Oversight echoed similar sentiments, stating that nearly four years after the incident, the FBI has yet to identify the individual behind the pipe bombs. The committee’s report reveals that significant investigative measures were taken in the early weeks, including identifying persons of interest and reviewing extensive security footage. Yet, the ongoing silence from federal law enforcement on updates has sparked frustration among lawmakers and the public alike, as these bombs posed a significant threat to Congress and catalyzed a diversion of essential resources.
This situation leaves many unanswered questions and considerable suspicion surrounding the investigation. The connection between a former Capitol Police officer and the events of January 6 complicates the narrative, suggesting deeper issues within the agency’s operations and its accountability. As investigations continue, the public remains in the dark about who is truly responsible for these threats and what role, if any, law enforcement played in the events of that day.
