A federal judge has dismissed the remnants of the government’s landmark case against far-right Proud Boys members who were convicted of seditious conspiracy.

Five members of the Proud Boys, a far-right militant group, have filed a lawsuit claiming their constitutional rights were violated when they were prosecuted for their participation in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.

An attorney for ex-Proud Boys national leader Enrique Tarrio says his defense team will review federal prosecutors’ reasoning for appealing his 22-year prison sentence in the U.S. Capitol insurrection.

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.

A member of the Proud Boys far-right extremist group who smashed out of a window at the U.S. Capitol, allowing some of the first Jan. 6 rioters to enter the building, has testified he acted alone.

A witness at the Capitol riot trial of Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio says that the month before the riot, members of the far-right extremist group were growing increasingly angry about the outcome of the 2020 election and were expecting a “civil war."

A month later, he wrote an apology from jail, asking for understanding as he was coming to grips with his actions. Confronted with compelling video and photographic evidence in court, dozens of rioters have apologized and expressed regret as the consequences of their actions have started to sink in. Ad“This is going to have consequences for these people for the rest of their lives — and it should,” said John Flannery, a former federal prosecutor and Capitol Hill lawyer. He later went to the trouble of putting a finger emoji on the photo pointing to a fuzzy image of someone by the tunnel. “We are good people who care deeply about our country,” Chansley wrote.

The Department of Justice announced Friday, Jan. 29, 2021, two New York men identified as members of the Proud Boys have been indicted on federal conspiracy and other charges in the Jan. 6, Capitol riot. Pezzola and William Pepe were arrested earlier in the month on federal charges including illegally entering a restricted building.
