Former Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio gets 22 years, longest Jan. 6 sentence yet
Enrique Tarrio, the former chairman of the far-right Proud Boys, was sentenced to 22 years in federal prison Tuesday afternoon following his conviction on a seditious conspiracy charge in connection with the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.
Jan. 6 has been called an insurrection, so why has no one been charged with that crime?
For the past year, words like sedition, treason, and insurrection have been used to describe what happened on Jan. 6, 2021.Yet, none of the hundreds of people charged in connection with that day have been charged with those specific crimes.
