Update: A sixth person was arrested and charged with first degree assault, also a class A felony in Washington state. This person was not initially listed in this report. We can also now confirm that four of the suspects were already released on Monday, February 1st. Two posted bail, and two were released on their own recognizance.
The following people are currently in custody in the Thurston County Corrections Facility. The first five are facing charges of first degree burglary, a major class a felony. They were arrested during yesterday’s violent take-over of the Red Lion Hotel in Olympia, Washington.
If they are actually prosecuted, they would easily face very significant prison time.

There are some other people who were arrested for lesser charges as well, but we do not have any information on them yet.
Daily Beast “journalist” (or is it journifa?) Shauna Sowersby was at the scene and is waging a gaslighting campaign on social media. Basically claiming that police used overwhelming force to “evict” people for no good reason. Often times, these far-left “journalists” are acting in a way that is much more like a co-conspirator than a journalist.
Local Far-left militant leader Ryan Endicott, AKA “Arrow” urged everyone to unite behind the violent take-over of Red Lion. Arrow acted as a spokesman for the militants who occupied a Fife, WA Travelodge for six days.
The #antifa protesting police trying to secure a hotel in Olympia, Wash. that was sieged by their comrades shout: “Pigs in a blanket, fry ‘em like bacon.” The chant refers to killing cops.
