ROCKY MOUNT, Va. – Two former Rocky Mount police officers now face four felony charges related to the deadly storming of the U.S. Capitol on January 6.

Jacob Fracker, 29, of Rocky Mount and Thomas “T.J.” Robertson, 47, of Ferrum have each been indicted for obstruction of an official proceeding as well as aiding and abetting, entering and remaining in a restricted building, disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted building, and disorderly conduct in the Capitol.

The obstruction charge is a felony offense and carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison.

Both officers have since been fired from their jobs but maintain they did nothing illegal. Both say they did not participate in the violence inside the U.S. Capitol.

A photograph taken inside the Capitol Crypt shows Fracker making an obscene gesture. Robertson is pointing at Fracker while holding a wooden pole.

Their next court appearance is scheduled for Tuesday at 3 p.m.
