There’s an MMA fighter among the charged, and another defendant is reportedly a U.S. Army Reservist from Monmouth County man employed at the Naval Weapons Station Earle.
There’s no word yet whether any members of the Biden Administration intend to support or promote a bail fund for the accused rioters.
