A man arrested for storming the US Capitol on Jan. 6 is pleading with Donald Trump to help cover his legal fees.
Capitol rioter Zvonimir Jurlina was arrested in Austin, Texas this week and charged with inciting violence against members of the media, and encouraging the theft of media equipment.
In a video posted outside a Texas Court House, Jurlina referred to himself as a “political prisoner” and begged Trump to pay his legal fees.
“I’d like to say to Donald Trump, please pay for my legal fees!” Jurlina said. “This all happened because of you, okay? I didn’t do nothing wrong.”
According to Reuters, Jurlina was also seen on video during the riot announcing plans to steal media equipment and pawn it.
“Yo, I guess we should loot now, right?. This is pretty expensive equipment. I’m thinking maybe I should just grab it up and then go to a pawn shop,” he said.
