Friends one question-has "zip tie man" been caught?

The masked man in the chamber with zip ties. I haven’t seen anything on him and checked google. I thought there would be more on him since he clearly was ready to be an executioner or at best a jailer of members.

I would really hope he is jailed ASAP and there is a major investigation into his social media contacts. To me, the picture of him in the chamber is chilling.

There is a person in contact with FBI who knows zip tie guy, but has so far refused to give his name.

All I've heard.

This guy is the stuff nightmares are made of.

Need eye bleach!!!

He looks fit. He hid his face. He looks like he has appropriate gear.
I wonder if he is one of Erik Prince's guys. Erik Prince probably had a hand in all this.

then once he's identified, the Military can recall him to active duty and charge him with treason, and Military Justice is quite harsh, at the very least, he'll probably spend the rest of his life in a Military Prison.

has a lot of information on the zip-tie guys and others dressed in military garb and new information is coming in constantly.
He's apparently already identified Man #2.

Many have asked. I have referred Male #2's name and details to the
@FBI
and will not be naming him right now.

However, I believe you should know that his bio includes:
-longtime security clearance
-graduate of a military academy
-Senior officer's rank at retirement
