THIS WEEK’S PODCAST

A Family Divided Over Jan. 6: ‘Traitors Get Shot’

After an 18-month long investigation, the House Select Committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol voted unanimously last week to refer former President Donald Trump to the Department of Justice on four separate criminal charges, including inciting insurrection.

Guy Reffitt was the first insurrectionist to be prosecuted. This week on Reveal, we revisit the story of how he ended up on the FBI’s radar and how his case has divided his family.
