[CRAIG NIGRELLI]

AN INDIANA MAN RECENTLY PARDONED BY PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP FOR HIS ROLE IN THE 2021 CAPITOL RIOTS WAS SHOT AND KILLED BY A SHERIFF’S DEPUTY.

INDIANA STATE POLICE SAY 42-YEAR-OLD MATT HUTTLE WAS KILLED SUNDAY BY A JASPER COUNTY SHERIFF’S DEPUTY FOLLOWING A TRAFFIC STOP.

LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIALS SAY AFTER A STRUGGLE…THE DEPUTY FIRED HIS WEAPON, FATALLY WOUNDING HUTTLE.

NEITHER A REASON FOR THE TRAFFIC STOP NOR WHAT LED UP TO THE ENSUING STRUGGLE HAVE BEEN RELEASED.

ALTHOUGH LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIALS SAID THEY DID RECOVER A FIREARM BELONGING TO HUTTLE AT THE SCENE.

IT’S UNKNOWN IF HUTTLE HAD BEEN BRANDISHING THE WEAPON AT THE TIME OF THE ALTERCATION.

THE DEPUTY INVOLVED IN THE SHOOTING HAS BEEN PLACED ON LEAVE AS PART OF PROTOCOL AS AN INVESTIGATION IS UNDERWAY.

HUTTLE WAS SENTENCED TO SIX MONTHS IN PRISON AND A YEAR OF SUPERVISED RELEASE AFTER PLEADING GUILTY TO ILLEGALLY ENTERING THE U-S CAPITOL ON JANUARY 6TH, 2021, WHILE ACCOMPANYING HIS UNCLE TO WASHINGTON D-C.

HIS UNCLE, DALE HUTTLE, WAS SENTENCED TO 30 MONTHS IN PRISON FOR CHARGES RELATED TO STRIKING POLICE OFFICERS WITH A FLAG POLE DURING THE RIOTS.

LAST WEEK, ANOTHER MAN, DANIEL BALL OF FLORIDA… WHO HAD HIS CASE TIED TO THE CAPITOL RIOT DISMISSED AFTER A PARDON FROM TRUMP… WAS ARRESTED ONCE MORE ON A PENDING FEDERAL GUN CHARGE CONNECTED TO PRIOR CONVICTIONS FOR DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AND RESISTING LAW ENFORCEMENT WITH VIOLENCE.

BALL’S ATTORNEY TOLD U-S-A TODAY MONDAY, BALL WAS NEVER RELEASED AFTER HIS PARDON AND IMMEDIATELY HELD ON THE FLORIDA WARRANT WHICH SHE SAYS, “STEMS DIRECTLY” FROM THE JANUARY 6TH ATTACKS.

SHE ARGUES THE CASE SHOULD BE THROWN OUT BECAUSE OF TRUMP’S PARDON OF BALL.

MORE THAN 15-HUNDRED PEOPLE CHARGED IN THE CAPITOL RIOTS WERE PARDONED BY TRUMP LAST WEEK.
