Federal prosecutors likened Stephanie Hazelton, 51, of Medford — who also goes by the moniker Ayla Wolf — to “a commander on the battlefield” as she marshaled rioters toward the tunnel entrance to the Capitol’s west side.
“This is the battle,” she shouted in videos of the melee later posted online. “Let’s go! Move forward! They cannot stop us all!”
But the punishment — handed down Thursday by U.S. District Judge John D. Bates at a hearing in Washington — could have been far worse. Prosecutors urged the judge to send Hazelton to prison for 11 months, at the top end of the suggested federal sentencing guidelines for the lone count of civil disorder to which she pleaded guilty last year.
Hazelton — the founder of New Jersey for Medical Freedom, the state chapter of an anti-vaccine network — rose to local prominence organizing demonstrations against proposed legislation in the Garden State, including a bill that would have required school children to get the flu shot. Prosecutors said Thursday that Hazelton adopted a similarly militaristic tone in the run-up to the Jan. 6 attack.
Video that later surfaced on social media showed her marching toward the Capitol with members of the New Jersey Sons of Liberty, donning tactical gloves and a black scarf bearing the organization’s skull logo.
