He has been charged with four crimes: assaulting federal agents, obstructing law enforcement, knowingly entering a restricted building and disturbing public order on the Capitol grounds. An attorney is not on Caldwell’s list in the public court record and has not had a chance to plead guilty. A message posted to Caldwell’s LinkedIn profile on Saturday was not returned. The use of chemical aerosols has been a major focus of the investigation into the death of United States Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick. [CNN reported](https://edition.cnn.com/2021/02/26/politics/fbi-identify-suspect-sicknick/index.html) that prosecutors believe he was attacked with bear spray, which contributed to his death a day later. There is no known connection in court documents or elsewhere between Sicknick’s death and the charges against Caldwell. #### [**FOLLOW US ON FACEBOOK**](https://www.facebook.com/wikibioin/) Prev Article #### About The Author ##### Ariana Willow [More from this Author](https://wikibioin.com/author/ariana-willow/)
