Proud Boys Sentenced for Jan. 6 Attack and Sedition

The former leader of the Proud Boys, Enrique Tarrio, could face the longest prison sentence of any Jan. 6 defendant as federal judges prepare to hand down punishments for members of the far-right group convicted of seditious conspiracy charges related to the Capitol attack. Prosecutors are seeking 33 years in federal prison for Tarrio, while other defendants, including Ethan Nordean, Joe Biggs, Zach Rehl, and Dominic Pezzola, face sentences ranging from 20 to 33 years. Victim impact statements were read during the hearing, with U.S. Capitol Police officers describing the fear and pain they experienced during the riot.
