ReadCo-detainee statements concerning Thomas Sibick
Four handwritten statement pages concerning Thomas Sibick bear the date October 26, 2021 and the names and signatures of Ryan Nichols and 10 other D.C. jail co-detainees. They record the signatories' allegations about conduct in the C-2B pod; they are not court findings or part of Sibick's January 6 offenses of conviction. The date is the date written on the statements, not a verified date for each alleged incident. The original scans are linked below so readers can examine the accounts and signatures directly.

ReadSecond Bond Hearing — Dec 20, 2021 (Judge Hogan)
Ryan's second bond hearing — almost a year after the first one in Tyler, Texas was denied. Judge Thomas Hogan conditioned access to this hearing on Ryan taking the COVID vaccine. Ryan went on the record stating he did not want the shot; told his attorney the same. He reluctantly took the first dose on Dec 4, 2021 to preserve access to the hearing. DC DOC then refused the required second dose until after the window expired. Bond denied at the Dec 20, 2021 hearing despite Judge Hogan's on-record admission that prolonged solitary confinement violated Ryan's due process rights. Confirmed in scans j6s14-014 (Step 4 Deputy Director Appeal, 3/18/22) and j6s18-016 (12/7/21 IGP).

ReadPeter Stager PREA Complaint Coerced into Withdrawal
Co-defendant Peter Stager's PREA grievance #20220201-685 (filed 2/1/22 about a female officer's "peeping tom" behavior) is followed by a coerced 2/17/22 Notice of Withdrawal signed in the presence of C. Savage. Major Sheila Marr issues a dismissive 3/21/22 response. C. Savage closes the case 3/28/22 with a timeline that contradicts the documented receipt. Stager is then written up, isolated, and loses his detail job. Pattern-evidence directly corroborating Ryan Nichols's broken-IGP claim.
