A Manhattan man who previously worked as editor of The Jewish Press found himself in handcuffs Thursday for his alleged participation in the Jan. 6, 2021 insurrection on the U.S. Capitol, federal prosecutors announced.
Elliot Resnick, 39, was allegedly part of the mob of Trump supporters, white supremacists and militia members who attacked the Capitol more than two years ago in a concerted effort to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election. At the time, Resnick was the chief editor of The Jewish Press, which professes to be the largest Jewish weekly newspaper in America.
