"Proud Boys Members Sentenced for Involvement in Jan. 6 Incident"

Dominic Pezzola and Ethan Nordean, members of the far-right Proud Boys, have been sentenced for their roles in the January 6th Capitol riot. Nordean, one of the leaders of the group, received an 18-year prison sentence for seditious conspiracy, while Pezzola was sentenced to 10 years in prison for obstruction of an official proceeding and destruction of government property. Nordean apologized for his actions in court, claiming he came to keep people safe, while Pezzola shouted "Trump won!" as he left the courtroom. These sentences follow the recent sentencing of other Proud Boys members involved in the attack.

Proud Boys Sentencing Delayed Again in January 6 Case

Sentencing hearings for former Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio and member Ethan Nordean were abruptly cancelled minutes before their scheduled appearances, citing an unspecified emergency. The hearings have been rescheduled for September. Tarrio and three other Proud Boys members were found guilty of seditious conspiracy for their roles in the January 6 attack on the US Capitol. Prosecutors are seeking lengthy prison sentences for Tarrio and Nordean. The cancellations come amidst a wave of high-profile activity at the E Barrett Prettyman Courthouse related to the January 6 attack, including the sentencing of Oath Keepers leader Stewart Rhodes. The Justice Department's efforts have resulted in over 1,000 arrests and 700 convictions in connection with the attack.

Convicted Proud Boy seeks lenient sentence while feds push for decades in Jan. 6 case

Ethan Nordean, a member of the far-right militant group Proud Boys, convicted of seditious conspiracy for his role in the U.S. Capitol insurrection, is asking for a light sentence of 15 to 21 months, while the government is seeking 324 to 405 months. Nordean's attorneys argue that his actions were no different from other protesters and that the government's characterization relies on abstract words rather than concrete facts. Despite his involvement with the Proud Boys, Nordean claims to have no criminal history and intends to express remorse for his contribution to the chaos at the Capitol.
