Newly obtained body camera footage shows the moment DC Metropolitan Police Officer Michael Fanone was brutally assaulted while defending the US Capitol during the January 6 insurrection.
The exclusive footage, which was broadcast on "CNN Tonight with Don Lemon" on Wednesday, was captured by Fanone's own body camera as he was outside on the Capitol steps and tased during a scuffle with the insurrectionists -- his screams audible throughout the early portion of the video as one rioter can be heard clearly saying, "I got one."
While it is difficult to see what happens next in the footage, another rioter seems to interject as Fanone continues to scream in pain.
"Don't hurt him," a voice in the crowd says. "We're better than this."

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel The Trumpublicans can deny all they want... if bodycam's can be used against police... why not use it to convict the Insurrectionist.
