Several individuals linked to the January 6, 2021 Capitol riot have been sentenced to prison. Four members of the far-right 'Three Percenter' militia received prison sentences, as announced by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia. Additionally, a leader of a far-right extremist group was sentenced to over five years for assaulting officers during the riot. Another defendant, identified as Isreal Easterday, who brought a Confederate flag to the Capitol and assaulted police officers with chemical spray, partially blinding two of them, was sentenced to 30 months in prison. The federal authorities are seeking some of the longer sentences among the 1300+ total Jan 6 cases.
