As reported earlier, a J6 political prisoner pardoned by Trump was killed by an Indiana police officer over the weekend.
FOX 32 Chicago reported at 4:15 p.m. local time Sunday that 42-year-old Matthew W. Huttle of Hobart, Indiana, was stopped by a Jasper County sheriff’s deputy during a traffic stop near the Pulaski County line. Police say the deputy attempted to arrest Huttle after stopping him, but the civilian resisted.
The officer responded by firing his weapon and killing Huttle following a supposed fight.
Investigative journalist Yehuda Miller and The Gateway Pundit reached out to Jasper County Sheriff Williamson following the news of the deadly shooting. We FOIAed video of the incident from the police cameras.
Sheriff Williamson told us that because this was an open investigation, he would not release the footage!
The video will only be released when the investigation is completed.
“This is an open investigation by the Indiana State Police. In the near future when this investigation has been completed, we will provide video footage via our Jasper County Sheriff Website for you to view,” Sheriff Williamson told Miller.
Huttle was one of the over 1,500 political prisoners persecuted by the Biden regime for daring to protest the results of the 2020 Presidential election inside the Capitol. He was arrested in Boise, Idaho on November 28, 2022.

Federal authorities charged Huttle with multiple misdemeanor offenses for recording his entry into the Capitol’s Senate Wing and walking through several locations inside.
Matthew Huttle’s crime was WALKING through the US Capitol on January 6.
Huttle is what Democrats and the mainstream media call an insurrectionist.
The Northwest Indiana Times reported Huttle was sentenced to six months in federal prison before he was released on July 17.
Jasper County Indiana Sheriff Patrick Williamson released the following statement following the tragic incident:
“For full transparency, I requested the Indiana State Police to investigate this officer-involved shooting. The officer that is involved has been placed on paid administrative leave, which is standard protocol and is our policy in these situations.
“Our condolences go out to the family of the deceased as any loss of life is traumatic to those that were close to Mr. Huttle. I will release the officer’s name once I have approval from the State Police Detectives.”
