Two members of the far-right Oath Keepers, Kenneth Harrelson and Jessica Watkins, were sentenced to prison for their roles in the deadly Jan. 6, 2021, assault on the U.S. Capitol by supporters of Donald Trump who tried to overturn his presidential election defeat. Harrelson was sentenced to four years in prison, while Watkins was sentenced to eight and a half years.

Watkins and Harrelson were acquitted of seditious conspiracy charges.
