Robyn knew her dad was immersed in right-wing conspiracies – then she saw him under arrest on 6 January.

Over the past five years, Robyn Sweet became more concerned as her father became immersed in far-right conspiracy theories. Then she saw the picture of him in handcuffs inside the US Capitol building on 6 January.
