As police desperately tried to stop an angry mob from storming the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, North Texas’ Mark Middleton pushed back against the barricade, federal authorities say. Decked out in a red, white and blue Trump beanie, Middleton hurled insults at the officers.
“Fuck you!” Middleton screamed, according to court documents. Three-and-a-half months later, he’d be arrested.
Middleton is a GOP precinct chair in Cooke County, around 85 miles north of Dallas. His wife, Jalise, was also with him that day. But now, the Forestburg couple is facing seven charges apiece for their alleged involvement in the Jan. 6 insurrection.
