Robert Petrosh Jr., center, is the latest New Jersey resident to be charged for their role in the attempted insurrection at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6. As the two grandmothers talked in January after the attempted insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, one of them told the other that her son was actually one of the hundreds who stormed the government building, according to court documents unsealed Wednesday. By Jan. 17, the other grandmother had told one of her grandchildren about what she had learned and the grandchild soon informed the FBI that Robert Petrosh Jr., of Mays Landing, was among those who stormed into the Capitol on Jan. 6, authorities said. Investigators soon learned more after a current FBI Task Force officer, who has known Petrosh for approximately 15 years, identified the South Jersey man in screenshots of surveillance video from inside the Capitol. The task force officer said he previously worked with and attended social gatherings with Petrosh, and even occasionally sees the man gardening.
