Saturday marks the third anniversary of the Jan. 6, 2021 attack of the U.S. Capitol in Washington D.C., when supporters of former President Donald Trump stormed the building in an attempt to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election.

At least 24 people with ties to Kentucky were arrested on federal charges for their roles in the insurrection, according to a database compiled by the U.S. Attorney's office. As of July 2023, 1,069 Americans have been charged with crimes in relation to the Capitol attack.

Records from the U.S. Attorney's office show some Kentuckians were arrested by the FBI or sentenced to prison in 2023, two years after the insurrection took place.
