Florida Proud Boys Member Sentenced to 5 Years for Jan. 6
#BIGBRICKPITCHER
Anthony Sargent claimed he was trying to help police officers when he hurled a “heavy rock-like object” at a Capitol building door.
According to CBS News’ Scott MacFarlane, the judge called Anthony Sargent’s defense “laughable,” saying he pushed an officer into the mob to prevent him from arresting another rioter and twice shoved police away from the Capitol as they attempted to fall back to safety.
Sargent later addressed U.S. District Court Judge Dabney Friedrich, saying: “I wish I hadn’t done it. I’m not a violent person. I have massive respect for law enforcement.”
But Friedrich interrupted, pointing out that he “at a minimum interfered” with the cops and that “there’s still an inability” to admit responsibility.
MacFarlane noted that Friedrich’s sentencing was rare as she went well above the Justice Department’s proposal of 46 months. Friedrich also ordered 36 months of supervised release and a $2,980 restitution.
