Shortly before the arrest, a British newspaper, The Sunday Times, published an interview with Munchel and his mother, Lisa Eisenhart, a nurse.

The report says they spoke with a journalist after they had taken part in the Capitol incident and as they were preparing to go home.

He’s quoted as saying, “It was a kind of flexing of muscles . . . . The intentions of going in were not to fight the police. The point of getting inside the building is to show them that we can, and we will.”


A Texas man, Larry Brock, was also arrested Sunday
Federal authorities also announced Sunday that they had arrested and charged a Texas man, Larry Brock, who is also accused of carrying plastic restraints in the U.S. Senate during the riot. Brock is accused of wearing a green helmet and holding a white flex cuff during the incident. In an interview with The New Yorker magazine before his arrest, Brock acknowledged he's the man in the photos and said he found the restraints on the floor.
