→Murder of Roseanne Boyland
Rep. [[Louie Gohmert]] (R-TX) grilled Garland under oath about Boyland’s death and the video showing Boyland being beaten and possibly killed by a DC Police Officer on the Capitol steps. Gohmert asked Garland if a determination was ever made to the DC Metro Police Officer who struck Rosanne Boyland repeatedly in the head with a rod before she died. According to ''[[The Gatewaypundit]]'' Garland proceeded to lie to the nation in front of the [[House Judiciary Committee]]. The Boyland family has since contacted the Department Justice and were told there was no such investigation.<ref>https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/11/must-read-exclusive-family-rosanne-boyland-killed-january-6th-denied-full-autopsy-report-speak-first-time-plead-government-investigation-please-help-gri/</ref>

Under oath at a House Judiciary hearing, Garland stated he was unaware of leftwing violent extremists who raided the [[Department of Interior]] (DOI) on October 14, 2021.<ref>https://www.foxnews.com/politics/reminiscent-of-jan-6-violent-protesters-arrested-after-storming-interior-department-injuring-officers</ref> The insurrectionists forced their way into the Department of Interior, fought with and injured security and police officers, sending some of the officers to the hospital.
Police arrested at least 55 protestors on site, but others got away.
Garland claimed, "this is the first I know about it."<ref>https://youtu.be/0rqji93g8p4</ref> Previously Garland referred to January 6 protests as "the most dangerous threat to democracy" in his [[law enforcement]] and judicial career and compared it to the [[Oklahoma City bombing]] case. In a June 15, 2021 speech announcing a new enhanced domestic terrorism policy Garland cited the takeover off a federal building as a motivation for the new policy, describing it as an ‘assault on a mainstay of our democratic system.’ Garalnd said that prosecuting ‘extremist attacks on our democratic institutions remains central to the mission’ of the Department of Justice.
