Capitol rioter sentenced to 6 years in prison for admitting to having 'fun'.
Markus Maly, a Virginia man who participated in the Capitol riot, has been sentenced to six years in prison for attacking police. Maly had told his wife and a federal jury that he had "fun" at the riot. The Justice Department had recommended a sentence of 15 years and eight months. Maly has raised over $16,500 through a GiveSendGo donation page, referring to himself as a "January 6 P.O.W." The judge declined to impose a fine. Maly has been jailed since a jury convicted him in December of all eight charges against him, including felony counts of civil disorder and assaulting, resisting or impeding police using a dangerous weapon.
