Multiple Capitol Rioters Sentenced for Involvement in Jan. 6 Insurrection
A New York massage therapist who participated in the January 6 Capitol riot has been sentenced to three months in jail after repeatedly disrespecting the court and berating the judge. Frank Rocco Giustino pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge but was arrested for failing to appear in court. The judge criticized Giustino for his lack of remorse and sentenced him to 90 days in jail. Prosecutors initially recommended four months but sought a longer sentence after Giustino disrupted a court hearing. Over 1,200 people have been charged in connection with the Capitol attack, with nearly 900 pleading guilty or being convicted.
