TL;DR Summary

A D.C. police lieutenant, Shane Lamond, has been indicted for tipping off former Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio about a pending warrant for his arrest just before the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. Lamond has been charged with obstruction of justice and making false statements. The indictment alleges that Lamond communicated with Tarrio over 500 times using cloud-based messaging services and advised Tarrio that he told another unit within the MPD, trying to convince them that the Proud Boys weren't racist. Lamond will be arraigned before U.S. Magistrate Judge Zia Faruqui on Friday.
