# 2026-10-22 Steve Baker / Kyle Seraphin X-posts and media addendum

**Archive status:** Partial capture. This addendum preserves the supplied post URLs and user-provided descriptions alongside the direct media files. X post pages returned HTTP 403 in this environment, so post text, reply completeness, exact timestamps, and media-to-post mapping have not been independently verified. The direct video and image URLs supplied in the request were downloadable on 2026-10-22.

## Research note (claims attributed, not independently established)

Steve Baker (@SteveBakerUSA) and Kyle Seraphin are described in the supplied material as analyzing FBI “Hoodie” footage. The supplied summary says they identify what they interpret as handgun printing, a possible chest-mounted radio microphone reflection, and hard-edged shapes they interpret as body armor. These are visual interpretations attributed to the presenters; this archive note does not independently identify the person, equipment, or affiliation from the footage.

The supplied summary places this discussion in the context of Armitas (@accabbat)'s earlier CCTV comparison, which argues that Brian Cole Jr. was on the northwest side of the Capitol while the hoodie figure was active on the southeast side on 2021-01-05. That is an attributed argument; consult the earlier source material and original camera exports before treating it as a verified conclusion.

The request also says Seraphin emphasized that Cole was not charged under 18 U.S.C. § 924(c). This is recorded here as a claim made in the supplied summary, not a verified statement about the charging record or the significance of that absence.

## Gaps

- Full post text, reply chains, exact UTC timestamps, and associated images for the remaining source posts still need capture from an accessible X page or another reliable archive.
- The three media URLs named in the requested structure do not all appear in the supplied material. In particular, no direct URL was supplied for the 2026-10-18 Baker-Armitas comparison video; do not infer or substitute a URL.
- No secondary Blaze/Snopes-style coverage PDFs or full-text notes are included in this capture.
- The user-provided descriptions are preserved as leads and are not a substitute for source-post text or independent verification.

## Attribution

The supplied material attributes the primary analysis to Steve Baker and Kyle Seraphin and earlier CCTV video work to Armitas (@accabbat). Preserve that attribution as attribution; it does not constitute independent verification of the underlying claims.
