January 6 rioter with gun who threatened Nancy Pelosi gets longest sentence yet

BREAKING: January 6 rioter with gun who threatened Nancy Pelosi gets longest sentence yet.

A man who took a gun to the US Capitol and threatened House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has received the longest sentence yet among those convicted in the January 6 insurrection.

‘Mr Reffitt’s reluctance to admit early that his behavior is illegal is concerning,’ said District Judge Dabney Friedrich before handing down the sentence. Friedrich denied the Department of Justice’s request for a ‘terrorism enhancement’ which would have made Reffitt’s sentence even longer. The 87-month sentence is two years lengthier than any other prison term handed to a Capitol rioter so far.
