Daily News | N.J. man admits to setting cop cars ablaze in Philly, inciting riot in Atlantic City during 2020 racial injustice protests
A New Jersey man who bragged on Facebook that he “blew up cop cars in Philly” during the May 2020 racial justice protests pleaded guilty Friday as part of a deal that spared him a seven-year mandatory minimum federal prison sentence.
the following day after police encountered him standing in the middle of the street, shouting obscenities at officers, and encouraging others to join him in looting nearby outlet stores.But Matchett exhibited none of that confrontational style as he appeared before Chief U.S. District Judge Juan R. Sánchez during a hearing Friday in federal court in Philadelphia.
As part of that deal, prosecutors agreed to drop the arson charges — and their accompanying seven-year mandatory minimum prison term — in exchange for Matchett’s guilty plea to one felony count each of obstructing law enforcement during a civil disorder and travel to incite a riot for the New Jersey offense.So far, federal judges in Philadelphia have proved reluctant to harshly punish those who have admitted to crimes stemming from recent protests.
