Weekly January 6th Rioter Roundup: Week of October 10th

     Andrew Galloway, a Navy veteran and owner of a since-closed right-wing business as well as the sole Capitol riot defendant from Wyoming who was notable for proudly proclaiming that Trump supporters, not ANTIFA, were responsible for storming the Capitol, was sentenced to 30 days in prison with $1,500 in fines and restitution.

     The Munn family, a family of five that traveled from Texas to Washington, D.C., to attend the "Stop the Steal" rally, were sentenced for their actions: they all received three years of probation, 60 hours of community service, and $500 restitution, while sister Kristi and parents Dawn and Thomas received three months of house arrest; parents Dawn and Thomas also received 14 days of prison to be served in two separate seven-day stretches. Dawn repeated stolen election lies at her sentencing and has already become involved in the "J6 defendants are political prisoners" movement; son Joshua has moved away to Wisconsin, while a sixth family member who was 17 at the time was not charged because she was a minor.

     Richard Slaughter and Caden Paul Gottfried, a stepfather and stepson from Washington state, the former of whom is a former school board member who assaulted law enforcement with a large metal pole and the latter of whom was briefly detained by law enforcement for using his body weight to shove them in the tunnel, were arrested on felony assault and civil disorder charges and a plethora of related misdemeanors.

     James D. Rahm, Jr., the Philadelphia father of a New Jersey Capitol insurrection defendant, was found guilty of felony obstruction and numerous related misdemeanors in a trial in which the government and defense agreed to a stipulated set of facts. He faces a likely yearslong prison term when he is sentenced on January 18th.

     Matthew and Bradley Bokoski, a Utah father and his Chicago son, pleaded guilty to misdemeanor counts of picketing, parading, and demonstrating in the Capitol. They face up to six months behind bars but will likely get much shorter sentences when they learn their fates on January 17th.

     Kristina Malimon and Earl Glosser, the former of whom is an Eastern European immigrant who gained prominence in Oregon Republican circles for organizing boat rallies (one of which ended in a boat being sunk), were found guilty in local D.C. courts of misdemeanor crimes for refusing to leave Capitol grounds when ordered to and calling the police "Nazis;" they each received a sentence of a year of probation with 100 hours of community service and $500 restitution.

     Stephanie Hazelton, the New Jersey woman who shouted, "We need more men," during the assault on law enforcement in the Lower West Terrace tunnel, pleaded guilty to a felony civil disorder charge and faces anywhere from probation to 14 months in prison (depending on a judge's decision related to sentencing guidelines) when she is sentenced on February 1st, 2023.

     Shawn Price, a leader of the New Jersey Proud Boys, pleaded guilty to interfering with law enforcement during civil disorder after bringing a dozen or so associates to the Capitol before donning goggles and pushing against police on the Lower West Terrace. He has a history of arrests for crimes like stalking, assault, and terroristic threats, and he faces a sentence of 12 to 18 months in prison when he faces the music on February 9th.

     Ryan Suleski, a Virginia man who stole papers from a congressperson's office and said, "this country wasn't founded on civility," while bragging about, "how easily we were able to breach their defenses" was sentenced to 60 days in prison with 60 hours of community service and $500 restitution after pleading guilty to a misdemeanor. He plans to move to Australia after completing his sentence.
