TL;DR Summary

Two more members of the Oath Keepers, David Moerschel and Joseph Hackett, were sentenced to three years and three years and six months in prison, respectively, for their roles in the Jan. 6 Capitol riot. Both were convicted of conspiring to commit sedition against the United States and disrupting the electoral college certification. The sentences were a fraction of the recommendation from prosecutors who said Moerschel and Hackett each deserved 10 and 12 years, respectively. Eight Oath Keeper defendants have been sentenced over the past two weeks, including founder Stewart Rhodes, who received 18 years in prison.
