"Jan. 6 Rioters Sentenced to Prison Face Judge's Criticism"

Brandon Fellows, a Jan. 6 rioter, was sentenced to 3½ years in prison for obstructing an official proceeding, entering a restricted building, and disorderly conduct during the Capitol attack. Representing himself, he sparred with the judge, calling the court a "kangaroo court" and making lewd comments. Fellows showed no remorse, claiming the election was stolen and justifying his actions. The judge sentenced him to 37 months for his Jan. 6-related convictions and an additional five months for contempt, criticizing his disrespectful behavior and lack of remorse.
