Former FBI agent Kyle Seraphin has raised concerns about the FBI's handling of the January 6 pipe bombings investigation. Seraphin disclosed that the FBI had identified a connection between the suspect and a specific Metro fare card and license plate.
This discovery could have been a crucial breakthrough, indicating a clear path to the person responsible for the potentially dangerous bombs. However, surprisingly, the FBI decided not to pursue this lead further. Despite the serious nature of the situation and the potential threats posed by the unexploded bombs, the agency opted not to interview the person of interest.
According to Seraphin, a leader of FBI surveillance teams, a counterintelligence team met with him at a firehouse in Falls Church, Virginia, shortly after January 6, 2021. In this meeting, he received a briefing on his new surveillance assignment. The team had tracked the individual on security footage, witnessing them entering a Metro station after placing the bombs, and they successfully identified the fare card used by this person.
"Someone reportedly tossed bombs around the Capitol, posing a potential threat to congressmen or innocent individuals, and the response is that you can't tail this individual; instead, you have to go to headquarters and read 'leads' about someone who might have attended high school with a person near the Capitol?" Seraphin expressed to The Daily Wire.
He criticized the Bureau's focus on investigating lesser offenses related to January 6, highlighting, "They found people based on their earlobes that were hanging out by a flagpole." Seraphin elaborated that the counter-intelligence division, which he characterized as not being "manhunters" skilled in capturing individuals and building prosecution cases, was overseeing the case.
Seraphin then noted that it was anticipated for the FBI to have located the bomber, suggesting it would be more astonishing if they hadn't. "They can do telephonic capture and triangulate your phone in real-time… The bureau is far too competent to fail this."
However, when Seraphin sought approval from the FBI to interview this person, his request was denied. They were then entirely redirected from this target and instructed to focus on investigating less significant leads related to minor participants of the January 6 events. The FBI has made public only a few unclear images of the bomber, despite extensive security camera surveillance in the Capitol Hill area.
“When they had the World Trade Center bombing in ’93, they went under four stories of rubble and were able to find a partial VIN number that they used to track it down to the people responsible. And you’re telling me you had a pristine, non-detonated bomb and they couldn’t find anything on it?”
On January 6, 2021, two pipe bombs were discovered in DC. The devices were found near the headquarters of the Republican National Committee (RNC) and the Democratic National Committee (DNC). The events coincided with the breaching of the U.S. Capitol building by individuals protesting the results of the 2020 Presidential election.
The pipe bombs were real, but they did not detonate. Law enforcement agencies, including the FBI, were involved in responding to the threat and conducting subsequent investigations.
The bombs were initially reported by The Washington Times in May of 2023; however, it did not receive much attention at the time. In June, members of the House Judiciary Committee demanded a thorough review of the FBI’s investigation into the pipe bomb incidents.
Steve D’Antuono, the former head of the FBI’s Washington Field Office, confessed the FBI was unable to determine whether the placement of the pipe bombs was a “diversionary” tactic for the Capitol attack. He also indicated that the FBI was uncertain about the suspect’s gender, despite claiming to have video surveillance footage of the individual.
