Based on the public court documents, below is a snapshot of the investigation as of the close of business on August 5, 2024.  Complete versions of most of the public court documents used to compile these statistics are available on the Capitol Breach Investigation Resource Page at https://www.justice.gov/usao-dc/capitol-breach-cases.

Arrests made: 

More than 1,488 defendants have been charged in nearly all 50 states and the District of Columbia. (This includes those charged in both District and Superior Court).

Police Officers and Civilians Died:

Within 36 hours of [the riot], five people died: one was shot by the Capitol Police, another died of a drug overdose, and three died of natural causes, including a police officer who died of natural causes a day after being assaulted by rioters. Many people were injured, including 174 police officers.

Criminal charges:

•        Approximately 547 defendants have been charged with assaulting, resisting, or impeding officers or employees, including approximately 163 individuals who have been charged with using a deadly or dangerous weapon or causing serious bodily injury to an officer.
  
  
•        Approximately 140 police officers were assaulted on Jan. 6 at the Capitol, including about 80 from the U.S. Capitol Police and about 60 from the Metropolitan Police Department.
  
  
•        Approximately 11 individuals have been arrested on a series of charges that relate to assaulting a member of the media, or destroying their equipment, on Jan. 6
  
  
•        Approximately 1,417 defendants have been charged with entering or remaining in a restricted federal building or grounds. Of those, 171 defendants have been charged with entering a restricted area with a dangerous or deadly weapon.
  
  
•       Approximately 87 defendants have been charged with destruction of government property, and approximately 66 defendants have been charged with theft of government property.
  
  
•        There were roughly 259 defendants who were charged with corruptly obstructing, influencing, or impeding an official proceeding, or attempting to do so when the Supreme Court issued its opinion in Fischer v. United States, 23-5572, which narrowed the conduct that could violate the statute at issue, before remanding to the D.C. Circuit for further proceedings.  

Of these 259 defendants, approximately 133 have been sentenced.

•     76 of the 133 were convicted of this offense and other felonies.
  
  
•     Roughly 40 of the 133 have been convicted of this charge and no other felony and received sentences of probation, completed their sentence, or have been released from incarceration pending the outcome of Fischer.
  
  
•      Approximately 17 of the 133 have been convicted of this charge and no other felony and are currently serving a sentence of incarceration.
  
  
•      Nearly all the remaining 126 defendants are on pretrial release while they are awaiting sentencing or pending trial.  The limited number who are detained are generally charged with other felonies; serving sentences in other criminal matters; or have failed to comply with the terms of their pre-trial release.

Damage:

•     According to the Architect of the U.S. Capitol, only a small fraction of the roughly $3 million in damage was ever repaid.
