Princeton University Student Pleads Guilty to Capitol Riot Involvement

A former Princeton University student, Larry Fife Giberson, pleaded guilty to joining a mob's attack on police officers during the U.S. Capitol riot on January 6, 2021. Giberson waved rioters into a tunnel and participated in a coordinated push against officers. He tried to start a chant and cheered on the use of weapons and pepper spray against police. Giberson pleaded guilty to interfering with police during a civil disorder and is scheduled to be sentenced on November 1. Another man, Marcus Clint Martin, was also arrested for assaulting police officers during the riot. Over 1,100 people have been charged with federal crimes related to the Capitol riot, with more than 600 pleading guilty.
