I have a possible ID for this guy.
Damn, his Facebook was taken down before I could grab most of it.
The account was into QAnon and Khazerian conspiracy theories.
He had a 5000 word post explaining his conspiracy theory but it went proof before I could grab it.
My bad. Khazarian, not Khazerian.
Before he was into QAnon, he was into Anonymous.
Any journalist out there want to confirm the ID?
I can give you the few screen grabs I got, pictures with his Hummer, and so on.
No takers so I'll put the images up here. He has a unique face, is from Virginia, drives a Hummer, and his Facebook page was pulled shortly after the incident.
He has a gofundme, of course. https://www.gofundme.com/f/virginia-armed-patriots?sharetype=teams&member=5086802&rcid=r01-15955435257-53b3a20cf037408b&pc=tw_co_campmgmt_w&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter&utm_campaign=p_lico+share-sheet+expWdV

He had at least two Facebook accounts which are both now gone unfortunately.

He used to go by a different name.
Oh crud. He's done good cat art, too.
While QAnon and anti-Semitic conspiracy theories seem to be his primary drivers, he's got some sovereign citizen markers as well.

If you need real security, don't pick from the sheeple. Get someone who can see the wolves a mile away.

I'm not sure why they're calling him Paredes instead of LaMotta. His federal court filings from his two bankruptcies show a legal name of Antonio Peredes LaMotta.
To clarify, PBS is calling his Paredes. https://whyy.org/articles/armed-qanon-follower-arrested-in-alleged-philly-convention-center-threat-linked-to-far-right-va-senator/
QAnon believer in alleged Philly convention center threat linked to far right Va. senator

The suspect has described coronavirus as a “psyop” and appears to justify killing people responsible for the pandemic in blog posts published to accounts he owns.
