"Judge dismisses 'hostages' label for Jan. 6 defendants in Trump election interference case"

Judge Tanya Chutkan overseeing former President Donald Trump's election interference case rejected the "hostages" label for jailed Capitol riot defendants, emphasizing that they are being held because they are dangerous. She sentenced Antony Vo, a rioter, to nine months in prison, noting his lack of remorse. Chutkan has been known for handing down harsher sentences to Capitol rioters and has placed Trump's trial on hold while he pursues claims of immunity from prosecution.
