Jan. 6 Capitol riot a year later: Over 700 rioters charged, DOJ won’t say if feds were involved

(Worthy News) – A year after the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, the Justice Department has charged more than 700 people in connection with the incident while refusing to answer questions regarding whether federal agents were involved in instigating it.

At least 600 of those charges were misdemeanors for entering or remaining within restricted Capitol grounds, offenses punishable by a maximum one-year prison sentence and $100,000 fine, CBS News reported.

Other minor charges include illegal picketing and disorderly or disruptive conduct on Capitol grounds, which hundreds of defendants have been charged with. [ Source: Just the News (Read More…) ]
