Federico Guillermo Klein, a former assistant to the State Department who was arrested on Thursday for his role in the January 6 Capitol uprising, claimed he would not be able to sleep in prison.

“I wonder if there is a place where I can be detained where I don’t have cockroaches crawling on me while I try to sleep … I mean, I really didn’t sleep much, Your Honor,” Klein said at the end of the hearing, according to the Post.
He added: “It would be nice if I could sleep in a place where there were no cockroaches everywhere.”
Faruqui would have responded to Klein’s request by assuring him that if he encountered any of these problems while in prison in Washington, his concerns would be addressed.
“Very well, I appreciate that,” replied Klein, the Post reported.
Klein faces six charges, including assault, resistance or impediment to certain weapons and violent and disorderly conduct at the Capitol Grounds. His arrest marks the first time that a Trump nominee has faced criminal charges in connection with the riot.
Klein’s requests follow the demands of the arrest of another Capitol hooligan: Jacob Chansley, known as “QAnon Shaman”, was moved to a different facility last month to accommodate his organic diet.
