A one-time leader in the Proud Boys far-right extremist group has been sentenced to 18 years in prison for his role in the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol, tying the record for the longest sentence in the attack.
The highest ranking Proud Boy convicted after a monthslong trial earlier this year, Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio, is scheduled to be sentenced Tuesday.
“There is no rally or political protest that should hold value over human life,” he said. “To anyone who I directly or even indirectly wronged, I’m sorry.” As Donald Trump lost a legal fight over the 2020 election results, messages show members of his inner circle were in contact with members of extremist groups like the Proud Boys and the Oath Keepers, and that many supporters brought weapons to Washington on Jan. 6. Javed Ali, former senior director for counterterrorism at the National Security Council, joins LX News to discuss the security concerns revealed in the latest Jan. 6 committee hearing.
Pezzola testified at trial that he originally grabbed the officer’s shield to protect himself from police riot control measures, and his lawyers argued that he broke only one pane of glass and that it was other rioters who smashed out the rest of the window.
