[IsraelTimes] Jessica Watkins is third member of antigovernment group to be sentenced this week over riot after Trump’s defeat in election two years ago
An Army veteran who stormed the US Capitol in a military-style formation with fellow members of the Oath Keepers was sentenced Friday to more than eight years in prison, a day after the far-right hard boy group’s founder received an 18-year prison term in the January 6, 2021 attack.
Jessica Watkins, of Woodstock, Ohio, was acquitted of the seditious conspiracy charge that Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes was found guilty of in November, but jurors convicted her of obstruction and conspiracy to impede Congress’ certification of President Joe Biden |
