Daily US Times: A Dallas-area real estate agent who is facing charges for allegedly being part of the violent mob that stormed the US Capitol last week said she is a “normal person” who listened to her president.
The 50-year-old Jenna Ryan is accused of “knowingly” remaining or entering in the restricted grounds or building without lawful authority and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds on January 6, according to a criminal complaint filed by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in a Washington federal court.
Matt DeSarno, special agent in charge of the FBI Dallas office, confirmed that Jenna Ryan had turned herself in and that her Carrollton apartment was searched Friday.
No personal telephone for Ryan was available, and court records did not list a lawyer for her as of Friday.
According to the FBI criminal complaint, Ryan shared videos and photos on social media, including a video in which she says, “We’re gonna go down and storm the Capitol,” in front of a bathroom mirror.
The FBI agent who signed the complaint also noted that the woman live-streamed a 21-minute Facebook video of her and a group walking toward the Capitol.
“We are going to (expletive) go in here,” she said in the video as she approached the top of the stairs on the west side of the Capitol building. “Life or death, it doesn’t matter. Here we go.”
The complaint noted, she then turned the camera to expose her face and said, “Y’all know who to hire for your Realtor, Jenna Ryan for your Realtor.”
