All of your Trump invocations reeked of agenda. 
Apologies. 

I haven't analyzed every single case brought against every single rioter that day, but as evidence has been gathered over time - more than 1100 of those "2000" who trespassed that day have been charged. That number went from 700 back in July to over 1100 now. Seems to me they have been systematically gathering evidence and prosecuting. 
What is selective about this to you?

Epps being charged with misdemeanors this late in the “investigation” after seeing video of him literally inciting the crowd. 

  1.  What took so long?
  2.  Why only misdemeanors?

There is a cloud over this guy as well as real time footage.  This should have been a slam dunk on speed and more serious charges.

Both sides? What other "side" perpetrated something of this magnitude?  When was it?

There you go again!
