but the officer who wrote the unofficial statement told CNN's Jamie Gangel that it represents the views of 40 to 50 officers on the force, and that the statement "needed to be out there. It needed to be done."
So an anonymous officer who CLAIMS to represent the views 40 to 50 officers put out a statement collectively speaking for the thousands of USCP?

US Criminal Code sanctions personation, so 18 U.S. Code § 912 - Officer or employee of the United States may fit the bill:
The letter states it’s coming from members of the capitol police, which is true. This criminal code would not apply.
I send letters everyday on my firms letterhead. Doesn’t mean I’m speaking on behalf of the entire company.

The grammar in that letter is atrocious. They couldn't find a single person that knows how to properly use a comma?
That 2nd paragraph? Lots of, commas, in that, long arsed, run-on, sentence.
This crybaby is probably full of er's and um's when he/she speaks. Some say BHO is running things behind the scenes. Things that make you say hmmm.....?

This is a misleading argument. You are speaking obo your company if, when you sign the letter, you violate the law in the course and scope of your employment- say, Fair Debt Collection Practices Act sort of way, or in other ways deemed to be within the C&S. Your company/firm is vicariously on the hook.
Quite a different thing to impersonate your managing partner and send a letter out on his letterhead to an important client stating "the firm is deeply disappointed to hear of your support of deviant homosexuality- this is a deeply personal affront to me as a homosexual man broke his wedding vows to my daughter marriage and ran off with a gay Willie Nelson impersonator. As a result, our firm can no longer represent you."
Regardless, if you thought it is excessively harsh to imprison the alleged USCP folk who forged a letter to mislead the public as to USCP's official positions, then I am sure you are just as incensed with imprisoning people without bail for nearly five months for allegedly trespassing on the Capital (despite being welcomed in by said USCP) in furtherance of their First Amendment rights.

That’s fair, but the point remains that what they did isn’t really applicable to the law you cited. They aren’t impersonating a government employee. They are government employees. They violated policy, not law.

I wouldn’t describe Jan. 6 the same way you did, but I generally don’t agree with holding people without bail.

So if it was the maintenance guy with access to the Chief's office who did this, he would get a pass because of his W2 relationship with the agency vs. the 1099 IT guy with the same access? C'mon Mickey!

I didn’t say they would get a pass. I said they didn’t break the law.

Doesn't look to be faked/forged. Looks to be done by a group of Capitol Police officers without approval to issue a statement on their letterhead.
Sticking up for criminals and liars, the Democrat way. It was done with the intention of deceiving the public into thinking the Capitol Police dislike Republicans and are in on the Liberal agenda. When in reality, it’s a small percentage of low-iq individuals within the CP who hold this view. They all deserve to be fired for insubordination.

Obviously, neither would "get a pass." We are talking of criminal sanctions. Your position is that an employee, regardless of rank/position, cannot break the personation laws. But an independent contractor could?
Admittedly, haven't researched the jurisprudence under that statute, but seems it could work. Hell, if they could predicate alleged crimes against Flynn and others based on Logan Act/FARA violations, might as well go lawfare on these slimy dim USCP "employee" operatives.

For this you need loud and penetrating communication devices. The bullhorns with the green tips work best.
