A leading member of the Ohio-based Salt and Light Brigade was arrested on Oct. 5 and charged with seven federal Jan. 6-related crimes, weeks after an Oath Keepers defense attorney identified the group as unindicted “suspicious actors” who incited entry into the U.S. Capitol through the Columbus Doors.

Pastor William Dunfee, 57, of Frazeysburg, Ohio, was arrested on a criminal complaint (pdf) filed in Washington. He was scheduled to make an initial appearance in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Ohio.
