A woman who was charged with participating in the insurrection at the US Capitol on January 6 asked a federal court for permission to leave the US for a vacation she had booked in Mexico.
In a court motion filed Monday, Jenny Cudd’s lawyers said she had “planned and prepaid for a weekend retreat with her employees for the dates of February 18 through February 21, 2021, in Riviera Maya, Mexico.” “This is a work-related bonding retreat for employees and their spouses,” it added.
Cudd, who owns a flower shop in Midland, Texas, has been charged with unlawfully entering a restricted building and with disorderly conduct.
