Capitol rioter with ties to White supremacist gang pleads guilty and is sentenced to 6 months in jail with credit for time served





(CNN)A US Capitol rioter who joined a white supremacist gang while in prison for attempted murder pleaded guilty Monday to a misdemeanor related to the January 6 insurrection.

The rioter, Michael Curzio, was sentenced to six months in jail but will be released Wednesday because he has been in jail since mid-January and will receive credit for time already served.

"Mr. Curzio should be sentenced to the six-month statutory maximum," federal Judge Carl Nichols said at a hearing. "I am not in a position to be able to impose a longer sentence than that. I think that six-month sentence is appropriate here. Mr. Curzio will have, in two days, served that entire sentence."

Trying to subvert Democracy is worth 3 years. Otherwise you will promote future insurrection.

The thing is… he’s a federal convict. Every time he is picked up or pulled over for anything, and they run his ID, he’ll get extra attention.
