"January 6 Figure Ray Epps Sentenced to One Year Probation"

Ray Epps, a figurehead of false conspiracy theories around the January 6 US Capitol attack, has been sentenced to one year of probation for disorderly conduct in a restricted area. Despite being falsely claimed as a federal agent who helped incite the attack, prosecutors have clarified that Epps was never an undercover government agent. Epps, who never entered the Capitol, admitted his original goal was to surround it and let lawmakers "know that we're not happy." He has also sued Fox News and Tucker Carlson for defamation.
