Oath Keepers founder receives longest Jan. 6 sentence with 18 years in prison.

Stewart Rhodes, the founder of the far-right militant group Oath Keepers, has been sentenced to 18 years in prison for seditious conspiracy, the longest sentence imposed to date over the Jan. 6 U.S. Capitol riot. Rhodes was convicted in November by a federal court jury in Washington. The militant group's members include current and retired U.S. military personnel, law enforcement officers, and first responders. Rhodes expressed no remorse and instead accused the far left of destroying America. Co-defendant Kelly Meggs, a former Florida Chapter leader also convicted of seditious conspiracy, was sentenced to 12 years in prison.
