Lonnie Leroy Coffman is a Trump supporter from Alabama who was arrested after the January 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol.
Coffman Arrest
Coffman was arrested by the Department of Justice and charged with weapons offenses in connection to the Capitol attack. According to DOJ filing documents, Coffman allegedly brought “homemade napalm,” guns, and ammunition to Washington, DC before the event.
Coffman allegedly had a list of “good guys” and “bad guys” on him, perhaps as a way to know which members of Congress should be targeted.
Other Arrests
At least 170 people have been arrested in connection with the pro-Trump attack on the Capitol.
