Married couple pleads guilty to criminal charge in case of pro-Trump Capitol riot

The couple that invades the U.S. Capitol together gets convicted together.

A married couple on Monday pleaded guilty to crimes related to their participating in the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol by supporters of then-President Donald Trump.

Joshua and Jessica Bustle, who live in Bristow, Virginia, agreed to plead in U.S. District Court in Washington to a charge of parading, demonstrating or picketing in a Capitol building in exchange for prosecutors agreeing to drop three other charges.

The couple, who face a maximum possible sentence of six months in jail, are the third and fourth defendants to plead guilty to Capitol riot-related charges.

At least they didn't travel nearly as far as a lot of their treasonous compatriots to commit their special crimes in DC that day.
