CBS News reported this past fall that over 1,000 Americans have been convicted of criminal offenses stemming from the January 6 riot on Capitol Hill.

Another conviction came this week when a former police officer and alleged "double agent" was found guilty of leaking confidential information.

Prosecutors: Former police officer passed information to Proud Boys

According to the New York Post, former Metropolitan Police Department Lt. Shane Lamond was indicted on four counts of obstructing justice and making false statements.

His conviction came following a seven-day bench trial presided over by federal Judge Amy Berman Jackson, who was appointed in 2011 by then-President Barack Obama.

Lamond was accused of providing former Proud Boys national chairman Henry "Enrique" Tarrio with "real-time updates" regarding his criminal investigation.

The Post noted how Tarrio pleaded guilty to burning the Black Lives Matter banner, which had been stolen from a Washington, D.C. church in Washington, D.C. on December 12, 2020.

The right-wing activist was sentenced to 22 years behind bars earlier in September of 2023 for seditious conspiracy in connection with the 2020 election.

Text message shows Lamond voicing support for the Proud Boys

Lamond was tasked with monitoring extremist groups while working with the Metropolitan Police Department's Homeland Security Bureau.

This allegedly provided the law enforcement officer with inside information which he would then pass on to Tarrio, who would in turn disseminate it among associates.

Prosecutors also cited a text message Lamond sent to Tarrio in which he expressed hope that federal authorities would not target the Proud Boys.

"Of course I can't say it officially, but personally I support you all and don’t want to see your group’s name and reputation dragged through the mud," the text message read.

Trump has promised to pardon January 6 defendants

While Lamond could face up to 45 years in prison when he is sentenced in April, the Post noted that his lack of a prior criminal record will likely work in his favor.

What's more, it is unclear what effect President-elect Donald Trump's pledge to pardon January 6 offenders will have on Lamond's case.

President-elect Donald Trump says he plans to issue pardons for Jan. 6 defendants on his first day in the White House.

Yeah. I’m looking first day.

You’re going to issue these pardons?

Trump reiterated that promise during an interview earlier this month with NBC host Kristen Welker, telling her, "We're going to look at individual cases. But I'm going to be acting very quickly."
