The Capitol rioter caught on camera dragging a cop down a set of stairs confessed in court, and he’s just been denied bail after prosecutors say he tried to flee the country.
Jeffrey Sabol, a geophysicist from Colorado, admitted assaulting an officer during the insurrection, reportedly explaining it away as a “fit of rage” … Friday in federal court in New York.
After the failed coup, prosecutors claim Sabol traveled to NY and bought a plane ticket from Boston to Switzerland — a non-extradition country — in hopes of not being shipped home to face the music.
The FBI arrested Sabol Friday morning at a medical facility just outside NYC, where prosecutors say he was being held in a psychiatric center following a suicide attempt.
Sabol, a father of 3 who grew up in upstate New York, was also captured on camera holding a police baton against a cop’s neck during the riots … according to prosecutors.
In locking him up without bail, the judge reportedly said Sabol’s alleged conduct was “beyond the pale” and “shocking.”
