Images of Dominic Pezzola, nicknamed “Spazzolini,” using the police riot shield to first breach the Capitol building quickly became a symbol of the violence that day. “The reality is you were the one who did it,” District Judge Timothy Kelly said during the hearing Friday. “You were the one who smashed that window in and let people begin to stream into the Capitol building and threaten the lives of our lawmakers. Pezzola was the only one of the five Proud Boys defendants not convicted of seditious conspiracy. Two of Pezzola’s codefendants, Joseph Biggs and Zachary Rehl, were sentenced Thursday to 17 and 15 years in prison respectively.

REUTERS/Shannon Stapleton/File photo Acquire Licensing RightsWASHINGTON, Sept 1 (Reuters) - A federal judge will sentence two more members of the far-right Proud Boys on Friday who stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, in a failed bid by then-President Donald Trump's supporters to block Congress from certifying President Joe Biden's election victory. The second defendant, Ethan Nordean, was a leader of the group who was convicted of seditious conspiracy and other crimes. The sentencing of Pezzola and Nordean follows U.S. District Judge Timothy Kelly on Thursday ordering two other former Proud Boys leaders, Joseph Biggs and Zachary Rehl, to serve 17 years and 15 years in prison, respectively. The government is seeking a 20-year prison term for Pezzola and a 27-year term for Nordean. Former Proud Boys Chairman Enrique Tarrio will be sentenced on Sept 5.
