周四早上，密歇根州共和党州长候选人瑞恩·凯利因其角色被逮捕在1月6日美国国会大厦的暴乱中根据美国哥伦比亚特区检察官办公室的数据，去年。
根据检察官的说法，凯利在他居住的艾伦代尔被拘留，并面临四项轻罪指控，“源于2021年1月6日的国会大厦违规事件”。一名执法官员称，他是在家中被捕的。
他将于周四晚些时候首次出庭;记录中没有列出可以代表他发表评论的律师，他的竞选团队也没有立即回应ABC新闻的请求。
凯利是至少另外三名因涉嫌参与国会大厦骚乱而被起诉的公职人员之一。经过一周的法庭审判后，新墨西哥奥特罗县专员库伊·格里芬于今年3月被判犯有一项轻罪。
在法庭文件中，凯利并没有被指控进入国会大厦。相反，他被指控在限制范围内，从事扰乱治安和其他轻罪。报道:警察知道德克萨斯学校有人受伤

根据凯利的逮捕宣誓书，多份密告——第一份密告是在1月6日之后10天发出的——连同显示他参与国会大厦暴乱的视频和图像一起被送到了联邦调查局。
据调查人员称，其中一条提示“显示[凯利]在美国国会大厦穿着一件黑色外套，一顶黑色反戴棒球帽，帽舌上方有一个长方形的美国国旗图案，戴着飞行员太阳镜”。
同样的信息后来被发布在推特上，到2021年1月28日，一个自2020年以来一直与联邦调查局合作的秘密消息来源-提供有关密歇根州国内恐怖主义团体的信息-也在起义期间拍摄的众多视频剪辑中的一个视频剪辑中确定了一个他们认为是凯利的人。
随着凯利的被捕而公布的宣誓书广泛追踪了他去年在国会大厦外亲特朗普的暴徒中的可疑活动。
调查人员声称，当凯利在乔·拜登就职典礼之前搭建的大楼西侧的西北脚手架附近时，他拍摄了暴徒袭击国会大厦警察的画面。法庭文件称，在警察被迫撤退后，凯利先进了脚手架，并最终爬上了西北楼梯上的一个建筑特征，并向人群挥手，让他们向他的方向移动。
证词指出，凯利有推动推翻上次总统选举的历史，并因其与1月6日的关系而面临审查。
根据当局的说法，他此前曾在2020年11月在兰辛密歇根州国会大厦举行的“停止偷窃”集会上发表演讲，他表示，“参加集会的人应该站起来战斗，目标是防止民主党人窃取选举”。
调查人员在指控文件中写道:“他戴着姓名标签发表了演讲，并表示‘新冠肺炎是为了让他们利用宣传来控制你们的思想，这样，如果你看了媒体，就会认为乔·拜登赢得了这场选举我们不打算买它。我们将站起来，为美国，为唐纳德·特朗普而战。我们不会让民主党偷走这次选举。"
2021年5月15日，在密歇根州兰辛市的密歇根州议会大厦外，州长共和党候选人莱恩·凯利参加了支持第一修正案权利的自由集会，并抗议州长格雷琴·惠特默。

2021年2月，凯利接受了当地电视频道的采访，被问及1月6日在国会大厦的情况。他否认进入过大楼，并拒绝在网上个人抓取的声称他是暴徒之一的照片中表明自己的身份。
但联邦调查局表示，他们进一步证实了他与其他三名证人的关系，包括一名认识凯利的人，渥太华县治安官办公室的一名执法人员和艾伦代尔的一名公职人员，凯利在艾伦代尔担任规划专员。READ MORE
凯利是共和党提名的五名候选人之一，将在11月挑战州长格雷琴·惠特莫。其他五名共和党人被取消资格，因为他们在请愿书上有欺诈性签名。
在凯利被捕后的一份声明中，该州民主党严厉谴责了他在1月6日的参与，并表示他对2020年选举的攻击在保守派候选人中并非独一无二，他们都“同样承担了同样的毫无根据的谎言”。
“[他们]对民主原则的无情漠视今天再次充分表现出来。...密歇根人不会忘记他们在瓦解公众对民主的信任中所扮演的角色，”该党主席拉沃拉·巴恩斯说。
Michigan GOP gubernatorial candidate Ryan Kelley charged for participation in Jan. 6 Capitol riot
Michigan Republican gubernatorial candidate Ryan Kelley was arrested Thursday morning over his rolein the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitollast year, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia.
Kelley was taken into custody in Allendale, where he lives, and faces four misdemeanor charges "stemming from the Jan. 6, 2021 Capitol breach," according to prosecutors. A law enforcement official said he was arrested at his home.
He will make his first court appearance later Thursday; records did not list an attorney who could comment on his behalf and his campaign did not immediately respond to a request from ABC News.
Kelley is among at least three other public officials who have been charged for allegedly participating in the Capitol riot. Couy Griffin, an Otero, New Mexico, county commissioner, was found guilty of one misdemeanor charge in March after a one-week bench trial.
Kelley is not accused in the court documents of entering the Capitol itself. Instead, he is charged with being on restricted grounds, engaging in disorderly conduct and other misdemeanors.READ MORE
According to Kelley's arrest affidavit, multiple tips -- the first coming just 10 days after Jan. 6 -- were sent to the FBI with videos and images showing his participation in the riot at the Capitol.
One such tip "showed [Kelley] at the U.S. Capitol wearing a black coat, a backwards black baseball cap with a rectangular U.S. flag emblem above the bill, and aviator sunglasses," according to investigators.
The same information was later posted on Twitter and by Jan. 28, 2021, a confidential source who had been working with the FBI since 2020 -- providing information about domestic terrorism groups in Michigan -- also identified a person they believed to be Kelley in one of the numerous video clips taken during the insurrection.
The affidavit released along with Kelley's arrest extensively tracks his suspected movements inside the pro-Trump mob outside the Capitol last year.
Investigators allege that while Kelley was near the northwestern scaffolding on the west side of the building that was put up in advance of Joe Biden's inauguration, he filmed the rioters assaulting Capitol Police officers. Kelley advanced into the scaffolding after officers were forced to retreat, the court papers state, and eventually climbed atop an architectural feature on the northwest stairs and waved toward the crowd to move in his direction.
The affidavit notes that Kelley has a history of pushing to overturn the last presidential election and has faced scrutiny for his ties to Jan. 6.
He was previously a featured speaker at a November 2020 "Stop the Steal" rally at the Michigan Capitol in Lansing, where he indicated "that those attending the rally should stand and fight, with the goal of preventing Democrats from stealing the election," according to authorities.
"He gave a speech while wearing a name tag and stated "Covid-19 was made so that they can use the propaganda to control your minds so that you think, if you watch the media, that Joe Biden won this election," investigators wrote in the charging papers. "We're not going to buy it. We're going to stand and fight for America, for Donald Trump. We're not going to let the Democrats steal this election."
In February 2021, Kelley was interviewed by a local TV channel and was asked about being at the Capitol on Jan. 6. He denied entering the building and refused to identify himself in pictures that individuals online had pulled claiming he was among the mob.
But the FBI says they further confirmed his involvement with three other witnesses -- including a person who knows Kelley personally, a law enforcement officer from the Ottawa County Sheriff's office and a public official of Allendale, where Kelley serves as a planning commissioner.
Kelley is one of five candidates for the GOP nomination to challenge Gov. Gretchen Whitmer in November. Five other Republicans were disqualified because they had fraudulent signatures on their petitions.
In a statement after Kelley's arrest, the state Democratic Party lambasted his involvement in Jan. 6 -- and said his attacks on the 2020 election were not unique among the conservative candidates, who had all "equally shouldered the same baseless lies."
"[Their] callous disregard for the principles of democracy was on full display again today. ... Michiganders won't forget the role they played in dismantling public trust in democracy," the party chair, Lavora Barnes, said.
