According to the FBI, Maimone posted a video on the social media site Parler. The video, the FBI said, was taken by Vogel and shows Maimone inside the Capitol crypt.
It also shows Maimone’s face as she removed her American flag mask and said, “It’s amazing.” Vogel, who couldn’t be seen on camera, can be heard telling Maimone: “Put your mask on. I don’t want them to see you,” according to court documents.
Surveillance video from inside the Capitol shows the pair together “pushing through law enforcement,” according to court documents.
The couple have been released on a $10,000 unsecured bond.
