WASHINGTON — A conspiracy theorist convicted of felony Capitol riot charges told a federal judge at his sentencing Tuesday that he wanted to "protect the Capitol" by "arresting the traitors" on Jan. 6 before he was sentenced to more than four years in prison.
Ed Badalian, of California, said at his sentencing Tuesday that he was "frustrated" that officers protecting the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, "did not join us in arresting the traitors," referring to members of Congress who did not overturn the 2020 presidential election in Donald Trump's behalf.
Badalian was convicted in April of conspiracy to commit an offense against the U.S., obstruction of an official proceeding and a misdemeanor count. Evidence showed that he organized paintball training sessions after Trump’s 2020 election loss and was preparing for war. He made it to the lower west terrace tunnel on Jan. 6 and into the suite of Senate hideaway offices that were ransacked by rioters.

Evans eventually pleaded to entering and remaining in a restricted building, and was sentenced to 20 days.USDOJ wrote:Inside and to the left of the broken window through which Evans entered, a line of U.S. Capitol Police officers stood, blocking off one direction of the corridor. The police officers were wearing full uniforms, to include marked helmets or caps, with police badges, duty belts, and official insignia clearly displayed. Most of the police officers were wearing riot helmets with clear plastic face shields down.
Once inside, Evans turned back to face the broken window where other rioters were visible outside. Two other rioters inside the building addressed those outside to invite them to “come in.” Evans then raised his megaphone to his mouth, and said, “Bring ‘em in.”
Evans marched through a corridor of the U.S. Capitol building. Evans used his megaphone to address other rioters, stating, “We want justice,” as well as “Back the blue.” Evans also used his megaphone to lead other rioters in the Pledge of Allegiance and the Star Spangled Banner. At approximately 3:11 p.m., Evans used his megaphone to address other rioters inside the Crypt of the Capitol.
Evans entered a Congressional conference room. Evans was told by other rioters inside that the conference room belonged to Speaker Pelosi. Evans took a shot of Fireball whiskey inside the room.

Jan. 6 rioter who urged mob to take officer’s guns took a secret plea deal, DOJ confirms

WASHINGTON — A Jan. 6 defendant caught on camera using a bullhorn to urge fellow pro-Trump rioters to steal law enforcement officers’ guns took a secret plea deal and was sentenced to 2.5 years in prison earlier this year, the Justice Department and his legal team acknowledged for the first time in a filing unsealed on Monday.
Samuel Lazar, a pro-Trump rioter, also shot at a line of officers with pepper spray on Jan. 6, the government said.
Lazar was actively featured on the FBI’s Capitol Violence website when he attended an event featuring Rudy Giuliani and former Pennsylvania gubernatorial candidate Doug Mastriano in May 2021. There are more than half a dozen photos of Lazar and Mastriano together at various political events; Mastriano has said he can’t vet everyone he takes photos with and that anyone who attacked law enforcement should be “held accountable.”
Lazar was arrested on July 27, 2021, the same day of the first public hearing of the Jan. 6 committee, which featured the testimony of four of the police officers who protected the Capitol during the attack.
During a sealed proceeding in March 2022, Lazar pleaded guilty to a felony charge of assaulting, resisting, or impeding certain officers and aiding and abetting and agreed to cooperate with the government, according to the joint filing unsealed Monday. Lazar was sentenced to 30 months, or 2.5 years, in federal prison on March 17, 2023, the filing said.
NBC News first reported on Lazar’s sentencing the day it happened after spotting members of his family at the courthouse. But Lazar’s family members would not say what happened during the proceeding and what sentence Lazar received. The Justice Department declined to comment on Lazar’s case at the time.
The filing was released following a petition by a media coalition, which includes NBC News. The coalition filed a motion to unseal back in April and filed a renewed motion last week after U.S. District Court Judge Amy Berman Jackson denied the initial request.

Did the judge miss the potential irony of having her surrender on Jan. 6? I realize that it is a saturday, and the prison staff may not be there for a voluntary surrender, but I still think that 1/6/2024 would be an appropriate date.

Justin Lee, of Rockville, Maryland, faces two felony counts for allegedly joining the violent Capitol riot.
A Montgomery County police officer was indicted Wednesday on two felony charges for allegedly assaulting police during the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot.
Justin Lee, 25, of Rockville, appeared before a federal magistrate judge Thursday afternoon for arraignment on seven counts, including felony counts of civil disorder and assaulting, resisting or impeding a police officer. Because Lee was charged by indictment, a detailed statement of facts was not available in his case.
Lee spoke little during the hearing except to tell the magistrate judge his police firearm had been reclaimed by the Montgomery County Police Department because he was on administrative leave. Lee was released on his own recognizance on standard conditions, including that he not keep a firearm in his home.
Lee was ordered to return to court on Oct. 25. His case was assigned to District Judge Trevor McFadden.
In July, Lee shot and killed a man accused of stabbing multiple people in Montgomery County after he charged at Lee. The suspect was later identified as 19-year-old Franklin Castro Ordonez, of Gaithersburg. It was not immediately clear whether Lee was on leave due to an ongoing investigation into that shooting or the new charges related to Jan. 6.
The Montgomery County officer isn’t the first member of law enforcement to be charged in connection with Jan. 6. Last year, Thomas Webster, a veteran member of the NYPD, was sentenced to 10 years in prison for violently assaulting a DC Police officer on Capitol grounds during the riot. A month earlier, Thomas Robertson, who was an officer with the Rocky Mount Police Department in Virginia at the time of his arrest, was sentenced to seven years in prison on multiple felony counts. Earlier this month, a former Tennessee sheriff’s deputy, Ronald Colton McAbee, was convicted of assaulting two officers during a prolonged melee at the entrance of the Capitol’s Lower West Terrace Tunnel.

Of course, she had to livestream about it and the story of her cocaine bust when she was a marine, so her history of poor decision making goes back a long way.
Boo hoo hoo.
Hope the prison offers psychiatric care. Yvonne needs it.

Appeals court upholds January 6 obstruction prosecution, in a ruling that could bolster case against Trump
By Katelyn Polantz, Senior Reporter, Crime and Justice, CNN
Published 2:05 PM EDT, Fri October 20, 2023
College win – a development that is a key factor of the DOJ’s obstruction cases against rioters.
Robertson argued in court that he shouldn’t face the obstruction charge because he hadn’t been acting corruptly, as the law requires. He also argued the law was too vague and was unconstitutional.
But the Friday ruling solidifies that his conviction and others like it can stand. In Robertson’s case, the court found he had broken the law in multiple ways, making it clear he acted corruptly.
“Where a defendant acts feloniously to obstruct a proceeding before the Congress, with no evidence or argument that he was merely engaged in peaceful expression, his culpability – i.e., the ‘corruptness’ of his actions – is not difficult to discern,” Judge Florence Pan of the DC Circuit wrote in the opinion.
Judge Nina Pillard agreed with the decision, while Judge Karen Henderson dissented.
Trump is separately charged under the same obstruction law and has pleaded not guilty. Trump is not personally accused of violence, as many rioters like Robertson were, and instead is accused of exploiting the Capitol riot as to derail the presidential transfer of power.

A bit moar at the link. Do I understand correctly that he has yet to be sentenced? That should go over well.US marshals cleared a courtroom after a Capitol rioter started a brawl with federal agents, reports say.
Vitali GossJankowski let out "guttural screams" while resisting agents, CBS News' Scott MacFarlane reported.
GossJankowski was ordered to go to jail while awaiting sentencing earlier this month.
A convicted Capitol rioter got into a fight with federal agents and security officials at a court appearance on Monday, prompting US marshals to clear the courtroom and rush the judge out, according to reporters who were in the courtroom.
Vitali GossJankowski, 34, was convicted of multiple felonies in March in connection to his actions during the deadly January 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol.
But earlier this month, the feds asked a judge to revoke GossJankowski's release and order him to be placed in jail while awaiting sentencing. Federal officials accused GossJankowski of sending several threatening messages to a law enforcement officer who testified against him.
US District Judge Paul Friedman scheduled a hearing on the matter on Monday and ordered him to jail. But things devolved when GossJankowski refused to surrender to agents and resisted their efforts to handcuff him, CBS News' Scott MacFarlane reported.
"Judge has ordered Jan 6 defendant Vitali GossJankowski jailed immediately," CBS News' Scott MacFarlane wrote on X, the social media site formerly known as Twitter. "And GossJankowski begins resisting federal agents. Table is nearly toppled. He's resisting several agents."
US marshals quickly ordered the courtroom to be cleared as GossJankowski made "guttural screams" while trying to fight off the agents, MacFarlane wrote.
Which, if you want to play piling on, is a crime of violence, after the other thing he was there for makes him a repeat offender and with those sentencing guideline enhancements is probably going to make his little 2 minute temper tantrum more costly than spending the whole day trying to overthrow democracy.
Somebody is going to have to learn to live with disappointment.
