Left-wing Capitol activist John Sullivan accused of violating terms of release with Internet use

He was released conditionally without bail on Jan. 15

John Sullivan, the 26-year-old left-wing activist from Utah who recorded an up-close video of a woman's fatal shooting during the U.S. Capitol insurrection Jan. 6, has been accused of breaking the terms of his release agreement regarding his use of the Internet.

In a court document filed last week, U.S. Pretrial Services Officer Josh Cahoon alleged that Sullivan violated his approved Internet usage on four separate instances, The Salt Lake Tribune reported.

JOHN SULLIVAN RELEASED CONDITIONALLY WITHOUT BAIL BY UTAH FEDERAL JUDGE

Magistrate Judge Daphne Oberg, of the U.S. District Court for the District of Utah, issued a court summons for Sullivan based on the filing. He faces federal charges of civil disorder, entering a restricted building and violent entry or disorderly conduct.

The judge had ordered Sullivan to be released conditonally without bail on Jan. 15, deciding that prosecutors failed to meet the legal threshold required to keep him jailed. Assistant U.S. Attorney Bryan Reeves had argued Sullivan is a risk for trying to threaten witnesses or jurors, but Oberg said Reeves lacked substantial evidence.

LEFT-WING ACTIVIST CHARGED IN CAPITOL RIOT AFTER SAYING HE WAS JUST THERE TO 'DOCUMENT'

The terms of his release agreement required Sullivan to stay off social media before trial, surrender his passport and be on house arrest. He also was ordered to stop working for the Insurgence USA activist group he founded, although he didn't have to cede control. His computer and internet activities would be monitored.

His attorney, Mary Corporon, did not immediately return a Fox News request for comment Monday.

In a previous interview with Fox News, Sullivan said he followed a pro-Trump mob into the Capitol in order to "document" the siege. He claimed in a separate interview with Rolling Stone that he was putting on an act to build rapport with the protesters.

Video that Sullivan – also a former Olympic speed skating hopeful – recorded for his social media accounts was later given to the FBI as evidence, according to a criminal complaint.

A shot in the arm

A shot in the arm means a stimulus, something that gives a person immediate energy or renewed enthusiasm. A shot in the arm is not a reference to a gunshot, it is derived from the American slang term for an injection, the word shot. A shot in the arm is a metaphor that refers to the rejuvenating effect from an injection of vitamins, narcotics or other drugs, first used in America around 1916. Today, the American idiom a shot in the arm is increasingly used around the world.
