According to the indictment, Lt. Shane Lamond (L) and Enrique Tarrio (R) communicated 1,000 times through various systems before and after 6 Jan 2021.

"The obstruction of justice charge carries a statutory maximum of 30 years in prison. Each charge for making a false statement carries a statutory maximum of 5 years in prison."

An indictment is merely an allegation, and all defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
