Enrique Tarrio, Former Chairman of the Far-Right Proud Boys, to be Sentenced for Role in Jan. 6 Capitol Attack

Enrique Tarrio, the former chairman of the far-right Proud Boys, is set to be sentenced Tuesday afternoon for his role in the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. Federal prosecutors are seeking a sentence of 33 years, but U.S. District Judge Timothy Kelly is expected to sentence Tarrio to a much lower term. Tarrio's co-defendants have already been sentenced, and Dominic Pezzola, the fifth defendant in the seditious conspiracy trial, is still awaiting sentencing. Tarrio's sentencing is expected to provide further insight into the scope of the Jan. 6 conspiracy.
