Former DC police detective: ‘Why was the Capitol not more secure?’
Ted Williams, a defense attorney and former D.C. police detective, says ‘a great deal of individuals are culpable’ in the Capitol riot.
A manhunt is under way in California for six inmates who escaped from a county jail on Sunday.
The Merced County Sheriff’s office said in an announcement that jail staff at the Merced County Downtown Jail discovered the inmates were missing around midnight.
A preliminary investigation showed the six men were able to gain access to the facility’s roof and use a homemade rope to scale down the side of the building.
