In one of the debates during his 2020 presidential campaign, Trump famously told the Proud Boys to "stand back and stand by" when he was asked by the moderator to denounce white supremacists.
[1/2]A mob of supporters of U.S. President Donald Trump storm the U.S. Capitol Building in Washington, U.S., January 6, 2021.
They are requesting a 20-year term for Pezzola, who was acquitted of seditious conspiracy, but convicted of other serious felonies.
The sentences he imposed, while far lower than what the government requested, still represent among the most stringent to date in connection with the Capitol attack.
It is one of four indictments now facing Trump, as the 2024 campaign is about to kick into high gear.
