US Capitol rioter and alleged Nazi sympathizer sentenced to 4 years in prison

Source: CNN

(CNN)Timothy Hale-Cusanelli, an ex-Army reservist and US Capitol rioter who said January 6, 2021, was "exhilarating" and felt like "civil war" was sentenced on Thursday to four years behind bars.

"This is a significant sentence," District Judge Trevor McFadden said.

McFadden lambasted Hale-Cusanelli for his "sexist, racist and antisemitic comments" that the judge said motivated, in part, his actions that day.

Hale-Cusanelli, who was convicted in May of all five charges he faced, including the felony of obstructing an official proceeding, told the judge he "would never see my face again."

I hope he serves every day of that 5 years, plus some for bad behavior.

according to Cassidy Hutchinson, said congressman also lobbied for a pardon...for himself

he won't be my congressman after jan. since he didn't run again

but he did represent this district perfectly...not through accomplishments but with stunts like nazi-honoring
