Harrison Floyd, a former Trump campaign aide indicted in the Georgia election case, expressed dissatisfaction with the tactics employed by FBI agents linked to special counsel Jack Smith’s separate federal probe, in a newly obtained bodycam video as reported by Fox News on Saturday, January 6, 2024.
The footage, revealed on “The Ingraham Angle,” captures an intense encounter between Floyd and the agents, shedding light on the contentious incident that unfolded on February 23, 2023.
Floyd, who served in Iraq with the Marine Corps and is an MMA expert, narrated his version of events to Montgomery County police. He claimed that men in suits, reminiscent of characters from the show ‘Better Call Saul,’ pursued him as he returned home with his daughter.
Expressing frustration, Floyd recalled yelling at the unidentified men, questioning their authority, and asserting that they failed to display credentials.
Amidst the chaos, Floyd alleged that one of the men brandished a pistol, prompting him to contemplate a response. Subsequently, he faced accusations of body-slamming one agent, an allegation later dismissed by his attorney, Chris Kachouroff.
Kachouroff contended that the initial misreporting of the incident had tainted the case documentation.
“They should have retracted that, but at the end of the day, if you look at the police report, it’s odd, to say the least,” Kachouroff commented on “The Ingraham Angle.”
He emphasized Floyd’s status as a victim, as reflected in the state police report, which Floyd initiated after the encounter.
Kachouroff, a former law enforcement officer, suggested that physical response from authorities would have been likely if Floyd had indeed touched the agents as claimed.
Highlighting the need for proper identification, Kachouroff argued that Smith’s agents bore the responsibility to identify themselves, especially if not in uniform.
Returning to the bodycam footage, Floyd expressed a desire to press charges against the agents, urging the police to reveal their identities and supervisors.
As he insisted, “I want to press [expletive] charges against whoever those two are who are coming after me with my [expletive] daughter.”
The attorney raised eyebrows at the subsequent arrest of Floyd, asserting that the case must have appeared “embarrassing” for the FBI.
Maryland officials reportedly informed Kachouroff that Floyd’s state-level charges were being dismissed but hinted at the possibility of federal indictment.
“No police officer worth his salt — even an FBI agent — is going to do this type of shenanigan,” Kachouroff asserted, challenging the credibility of the unfolding events.
The subpoena against Floyd reveals the scope of the investigation, demanding the turnover of contacts with Trump, the Trump White House, and attorneys associated with Trump.
Additionally, documents relevant to potential contact with election workers who sued Rudy Giuliani were requested, according to Politico.
Floyd, initially charged in Atlanta under the Georgia RICO statute along with other Trump-connected figures, is yet to be indicted by Jack Smith.
