Members and associates of the Oath Keepers served as Stone's security detail at Washington events and his hotel on January 5 and 6. The committee documented contacts and photographs while noting gaps in Stone's testimony and communications. The evidence establishes operational proximity to people later convicted in January 6 cases, but not that Stone knew their plans or directed violence.
