Stewart Rhodes, Oath Keepers founder, sentenced to 18 years for seditious conspiracy

Quote:

The founder of the far-right Oath Keepers group has been sentenced to 18 years in prison for his role in a seditious conspiracy to disrupt the electoral count, the stiffest punishment to date to stem from the violent assault on the Capitol on January 6, 2021.

A jury in Washington, D.C., convicted Stewart Rhodes last November of the politically charged sedition charge and multiple other felonies. Given the rare nature of the charge, his prison term could influence any sentence Enrique Tarrio, the former chairman of the far-right Proud Boys group will face on the same charge later this summer.

@Region Philbis,

One thing is likely certain, he and his cohorts aren't going to be humble and remorseful. Two strikes against them in their inevitable parole hearings.

@tsarstepan,

I think they'll get worn down and will be offering all sorts of cooperation in the future sentence reduction.

@Region Philbis,

It's in Federal lockup and they do not get a generous good time reduction.

@Region Philbis,

I wonder if any of these convicted vets will lose their VA benefits in consequence.

@tsarstepan,

It almost always requires a military offense or a clear cut example of fraud to lose those. I don't think they should null benefits past discharge of active and reserve duty.

They did the service when 90% of their fellow citizens chose to do otherwise. I say let them keep their earned benefits, particularly their medical benefits.

@Region Philbis,

Though, I really don't want criminals meting out some sort of extrajudicial punishment in my name.

Let him hole up with Aryan Nation for eighteen years. I don't think he'll be going to a Club Fed. They took him right out of court. These judges are not slapping wrists.
