(Updated 01/27/2023): Social media posts reveal that ELEVEN area residents and their family attended the Jan 5-6 Stop-the-Steal rallies and the J6 Insurrection at the Capitol in Washington, DC. Public posts reveal the identity of four adults of the eleven and knowledge of the identities of some by their friends.

The term insurrectionist is used because each of the identified posted intent to disrupt government proceedings and/or overthrow the government to “fight for Trump.” Photos reveal that at least one, Sindi Vetere, is a Sedition Insider (entered the Capitol or breached barriers) and that Stephen Corson was behind barriers.

The evidence is presented in 9 sections, as follows:

  1. Law enforcement praise, Kanab City Police Chief Tom Cram & his son Deputy Colton Cram of Kane County Sheriff’s Office
  2. Stephen Corson of Glendale, Utah with brother Mark Corson of Rimrock, AZ. Kanab residents recognize these two from their weekly display of signs and flags at 89/89A including All Lives Matter 2020, Stop-the-Steal 2020 and Save America 2021. Corson joined 1776RM in DC 2022 and the Kane County Committee of Safety with Shawna Cox
  3. David Crosby of Kanab, Utah. Dave sold Crosby Home & Farm to son and took the head position of an LDS mission in Chile.
  4. Sindi Johnston Brown Vetere and mother Shawna Cox of Kanab, Utah. Sindi’s posts & Corson’s videos reveal that Sindi & Shawna were inside the capitol and near Ashli Babbitt when she was shot. After their return, Sindi ran for Mayor of Kanab, Utah. She owns AA Sanitation and the Kanab Sinclair building. Shawna Cox formed the Kane County Committee of Safety, hosted a Constitution class & as area representative for Ammon Bundy’s People’s Rights Movement promoted his 04/2021 event at Kanab Center.

Local Law Enforcement Support, Praise (1 of 9)

Police Chief Tom Cram and his son Colton Cram, deputy at Kane County Sheriff’s Office, show their support of David Crosby and Steve Corson. The Cram family members are all in law enforcement or employed by Kanab City or Kane County (see Google Slideshow end of this section and KURW post Meet Your Neighbors: Red Level).

  • Tom’s support was for Crosby’s attendance at DC (first image below, use arrow keys)
  • Colton’s support was a comment “they are the crazy people” expressed after doing his job intervening in an incident between an angered resident and one of Corson’s “Save America” rally sign/flag waivers. (second image below, use arrow keyes).

Upon returning from storming the US Capitol January 6, 2021, Corson continued his roadside rallies in Utah & Arizona with themes of “Save America”, “Medical Freedom” and protesting Planned Parenthood. He joined Ammon Bundy’s People’s Rights Network (see KURW post Ammon Bundy’s People’s Rights Recruitment in Kanab. Kudos Kane County Office of Terrorism) and fellow J6er Shawna Cox’s Committee of Safety. The Committee of Safety hosted presentations on the US Constitution, booths at local events like Western Legends and a float in Kanab’s 4th of July parade 2021 adorned with a III% flag. Their preparedness fair was promoted, attended and praised by recently elected Kane County Commissioner Patty Kubeja.

Steve posted some of these videos on his YouTube channel “Stephen Corson” https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsFlyL5qZ2RvCYDsLZjUKvw/featured but none of “the attack” mentioned on Facebook. This channel was suspended by YouTube for violating policy. He then started a second channel “Freedom4USA” https://www.youtube.com/@freedomforusa and posted some of that video there with additional footage of the violence (flash bangs) and him standing behind a person with a bat.

Other activity was documented on Facebook by Lois & Jeannine Corson. Lois Corson is the spouse of Stephen Corson and uses FB profile “Grace Ann Christian”(https://www.facebook.com/stephen.corson1). Jeannine Corson is the sister-in-law of Stephen Corson, married to his brother Mark Corson who they report being with Steve at the J6 attack (https://www.facebook.com/jeannine.corson.7)

.Lois was active with Steve from their 2011 “carry cross to DC from UT” trip to the weekly rallies for All Lives Matter, MAGA 2020 and Save America 2021 at 89/89A in Kanab.

Background: This was not their first trip of extremism to DC. In 2011, Lois & Stephen carried crosses from Utah to DC. For years, they have displayed their beliefs on the roadsides of Kanab and neighboring Fredonia, Arizona. Those signs have shifted from religious & pro-birth signs to All Lives Matter, MAGA & Stop-the-Steal in 2020 to Save America, Don’t Tread on Me, III% & Anti-vax/Anti-Mask in 2021. They have expanded to forming a “Committee of Safety” group with booths at events, classes & a III% float in Kanab’s 4th of July parade. Following the June 04, 2020 Justice for George Floyd March in Kanab (see SLTRIB article), Steve & Lois joined by Kanab Patriots & residents, began weekly hate rallies at 89/89A.

2022: After Save America rallies, Committee of Safety booths & protests at Planned Parenthoods, Steve joined the truckers’ convoy and bragged “I stood at USA Captiol for first time since Jan.6,2021”.

David Crosby Kanab, Utah (3 of 9)

Dave returned from the Capitol Riot, sold his business to his son and then took the head position of an LDS mission in Chile. He was the owner of Crosby Farm and Home in Kanab, Utah. Dave posted photos of his trip to DC on January 5, 2021. His comments show his excitement for the following day with posts like “wait until tomorrow” , “Trump needs us” and “Yes, Giuliani called for trial by combat”. Dave posted that he was at the Capitol. Kanab City Police Chief Tom Cram (Kanab City Police Chief, bigotry on display and how to file a complaint) replied “Good for you, MAGA” to Dave’s Capitol attendance posts.

REPORT TO FBI: https://tips.fbi.gov/. Dave’s FB profile https://www.facebook.com/davidtaylorcrosby and Parler @Cros32

Background: Dave fits the profile, and I was absolutely shocked to see him at the Capitol and to read his posts of fear, anger, betrayal, secret combinations, Satan, compelled to act now. DHS describes the new right threat to local politicians and journalists, emboldened by the Capitol Insurrection. The Google Presentation below is a list of his public posts and interactions on FB by category: Insurrection, Extremism, Bigotry, Justice & Equality, Politics & Covid, and Politicians & Voters.

Let’s see how his posts flow before–during–after Insurrection to shed light on anger toward politicians and journalists……….

Dave Crosby’s Public Posts Before Insurrection:

Kanab’s Kanassholes for rape meme

Dave Crosby’s Public Posts During/Surrounding Insurrection Jan 6-9:

Continued defense of Trump, conspiring minds and media and the left crafted narratives, blames real being not of this world, cult calling?, fear communism/socialism & losing freedoms, and even after the Insurrection he says “I feel unusually moved to stand up and fight against evil at this time”, anger at media and Mitt Romney

Dave Crosby’s Public Posts After Insurrection:

continued anger toward politicians and media and the left, dismissing actual reality as gaslighting by the media and the left. Lower image–reveals betrayal, frustration with past years and fear of concentration camps with continued call for Patriots to stand up.

Tana Kou & Jeff Schwilk of Kanab, Utah. (5 of 9)

Ly “Tana” Kou posted “someone I know well was there” on Lois Corson’s page. While no one was named and no other posts were found to whom she referenced, it is important to consider that Tana’s partner is Jeff Schwilk. They are both border wall activists, founded extremist page “Kanab Patriots” Recruits and Radicalizes Facebook Extremists and Jeff founded hate groups in his former state of California. Read more about Jeff & Tana in this KURW post Kanab Veterans Engage in Extremism, Reflecting National Trend and the Google Slideshow of evidence following.

NON-RESIDENTS with Kanab Connections (7 of 9)

HAYDEN BALLARD is a Utah Public Lands Attorney, Insurance Agent & a Kanab Patriot whose posts reflect a deep passion and defense of J6. There is no direct evidence putting him there. Ballard is from neighboring Fredonia, Arizona and lives in Beaver, Utah.

The depth and breadth of his extremism & bigotry qualified a Red Level Hatewatch designation. The image below is a summary of his posts on Insurrection, Calls to Fight & Conspiracy only. To see more evidence for Ballard see two posts: Meet Your Neighbors: Red Level and Meet the Kanab Patriots: last names A,B, C

NATHAN MILLET: A Colorado resident from Kanab and former Big Water, UT volunteer firefighter & water superintendent also posts with passion and defense for J6. There is no evidence of Millet at DC.

Beck Joblonski from Chehalis, Washington posts extensive calls to fight in 2020, election fraud and on Jan 7 “I’ve been stewing two days…why I went where I went”. Her posts near January 6th include tagging Billy Hasselblad of Copalis Beach, Washington & Sterling Graham Shaddowwolf of Orem, Utah. Shadowwolf is a Kanab Patriot & posts extensive extremism. For now, this is a sample of their engagements related to January 6 and will be updated soon. Please contact me at mgalaria@protonmail.com for corrections & the FBI for additional information.

I resided in the Kanab, Utah area from 2009 throughout 2020. I am reformed right, 15 years now, with most family members still far-right. I lived 37 of my 48 years in rural America. I created KURW after I discovered that two people from Kanab who I knew were at the Jan 6th Capitol Insurrection and the continued threat warning from DHS regarding the far-right movement. Studies show new trends in extremist characteristics, feelings of fear/anger/betrayal, an increase in social media recruitment and incitement, and radicalization as quickly as six months. I had a lot of documentation from covering the six months of weekly Black Lives Matter and All Lives Matter and MAGA events in Kanab. I used that documentation, public posts on social media, contribution from community members and outside organizations to create Hatewatch because I feel like that is the best way that I can address the call for awareness.
