Proud Boys demand emergency hearing over government cooperator witness.

Five Proud Boys accused of inciting the attack on the U.S. Capitol Building asked a judge to put an immediate halt to their trial after learning a witness they were preparing to call had been cooperating with government investigators for nearly two years. Defense attorneys are concerned the witness may have passed along information about their defense strategies to the government. The trial has been temporarily paused due to the issue of government cooperators and the discovery of hidden rows in a spreadsheet prepared by an FBI witness. Defense attorneys began presenting their cases-in-chief on Monday.
