TL;DR Summary

The DOJ is seeking a 25-year prison sentence for Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes, who was convicted of seditious conspiracy and other felonies stemming from his involvement in the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. Prosecutors are also seeking to use a terrorism enhancement in urging the judge to accept an upward departure from the typical sentencing guidelines. The recommendation for Rhodes is the longest thus far for any person charged in connection with the Capitol attack, reflecting what prosecutors see as his role as a key organizing figure for members of the far-right militia.
