"Proud Boys Sentencing: Record Prison Terms Loom for Jan. 6 Sedition"

Former Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio and three other members of the far-right group have been found guilty of seditious conspiracy and other charges related to the January 6 Capitol riot. Prosecutors are seeking sentences of 20 to 33 years for the convicted members, arguing that they organized and directed a force to attack the heart of democracy. The Proud Boys, known for their white nationalist, antisemitic, and anti-LGBT+ rhetoric, have been linked to violence and threats against various groups. The convictions mark a significant victory for the US Department of Justice's investigation into the Capitol riot, which has resulted in over 1,000 arrests and 700 convictions.
