U.S. Capitol Rioter Denies Being an FBI Plant Despite Claims From Prominent Conservatives, Forcing Him Into Hiding

Ray Epps was a protestor present at the January 6th Capitol riot who denies being an FBI informant, as unfounded accusations claim.
Conspiracy theories originating from right-wing media and promoted by Fox News personalities and members of Congress falsely label Epps as a government agent who instigated the insurrection.
Epps and his family have received death threats due to these baseless claims and have been forced into hiding as a result.
The FBI has denied that Epps worked for or with them in any capacity relating to January 6th.
Epps believes media figures like Tucker Carlson and politicians like Marjorie Taylor Greene, Ted Cruz, and Matt Gaetz have done far more to spread misinformation about election fraud and the Capitol attack than he has.
