Two weeks after January 6, nobody had knocked on his door, nobody had named him, and he walked into the FBI on his own and told them what he did. FACT, documented in the sworn affidavit in his case. That is not a small thing. Michael Quick volunteered for the interview on January 21, 2021. He said he saw a broken window, walked into a hallway, and was inside somewhere between five and fifteen minutes. He said his objective was to get Congress to look at what he believed were irregularities in the election. THEIR ACCOUNT, from his own statement in the affidavit. No weapon. No assault.
