Authored by theguardian.com

Benjamin Song, who fired the gun at the police officer, was sentenced to 100 years in prison.

Song was convicted of attempted murder of an officer of the United States, as well as firearm and explosives charges.

Zachary Evetts, Autumn Hill, Savanna Batten, Elizabeth Soto and Meagan Morris were sentenced to 50 years in prison.

All six were convicted of riot, providing material support to terrorist, and explosive charges.

The punishment for the protesters exceeds the lengthiest prison sentences given out for the attack on the Capitol on January 6.

Enrique Tarrio, the leader of the Proud Boys who was convicted of seditious conspiracy, was sentenced to 22 years in prison.

A similar case in Chicago against protesters fell apart after it was revealed there was misconduct before grand jurors. »
