Steven A. Sund (born 6 April 1972) is a retired American law enforcement official, author and public speaker. Sund was a member of the D.C. Metropolitan Police Department for 25 years, where he was commander of the force's Special Operations Division. He joined the U.S. Capitol Police in 2017, becoming its chief in 2019. He led the force during the January 6 Capitol attack, after which he faced widespread criticism for the perceived security failures of that day. A December 2024 interim report by the Subcommittee on Oversight of the 118th Congress concluded that Sund had “unfairly shouldered the bulk of the blame” and highlighted systemic failures across federal agencies.[1]
