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.
