Oath Keeper members sentenced for Jan. 6 plot and betrayal.

Two Oath Keepers, Jessica Watkins and Kenneth Harrelson, were sentenced to 8.5 years and four years in prison, respectively, for their involvement in the Jan. 6 Capitol attack. Watkins recruited three others and was recorded on a walkie-talkie-style app saying she was walking with a group of about 30 to 40 people to the Capitol and “sticking together and sticking to the plan,” before she eventually met up with a group led by Kelly Meggs. Harrelson received firearms training with Meggs in Florida and served as “Meggs’ right-hand man” in setting up video meetings and relaying instructions to other Florida Oath Keepers about stashing weapons for a “Quick Reaction Force” if violence erupted.
