Florida Proud Boys member Chris Worrell was sentenced to ten years in prison for assaulting police officers during the riot on January 6 at the U.S. Capitol.
Worrell has been on the run and was accused of faking an overdose to avoid prison.
The 51-year-old man appeared before Senior U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth in Washington, D.C., for his bench trial.
He was found guilty by the judge for charges including civil disorder, assault, resistance and obstruction of officers using a dangerous weapon, as well as physical violence and other offenses.
Lamberth also put Worrell on 36 months of supervised release that included restitution of $2,000 and a $610 special assessment.
Worrell faced prison time before his disappearance. Initially, prosecutors sought a 14-year sentence, considered at the low end of the 12 to 17.5 years recommended by guidelines. Worrell later requested 12 to 18 months, citing a health condition in a plea for court sympathy.

Andrew Callaghan is back on YouTube, and he plans to remain active for the next 55 weeks. The filmmaker known for his man-on-the-street interviews has returned to his Channel 5 hub nine months after he was accused of sexual misconduct.
Callaghan rose to fame on the channel All Gas No Brakes, on which he traveled across the country conducting interviews with strangers. Alongside with co-founders Nic Mosher and Evan Gilbert-Katz, Callaghan split from the All Gas No Brakes hub in 2021 to launch a new venture called Channel 5. His star continued to rise when he directed This Place Rules, an HBO documentary about the January 6 uprising.
Shortly after the film’s release, Callaghan found himself in hot water. At least three women accused him of sexual coercion. One of the accusers claimed that Callaghan “wasn’t taking a simple no for an answer” after the pair met on a dating app.

Updated, with additional details and reaction: Tucker Carlson aired the first clips of January 6th Capitol surveillance footag on Monday, and the Fox News host spent much of the time using clips to downplay the attack on the Capitol and cast doubt on the 2020 presidential election.
Carlson had heavily promoted the footage, suggesting that it would refute findings from the January 6th Committee and even prove that its members were lying. But much of the hour was Carlson, with ample doses of hype, trying to revise the history of the violence and chaos of that day.
House Speaker Kevin McCarthy had provided Carlson with exclusive access to about 40,000 hours of surveillance footage from the Capitol, to the dismay of committee members wary of the Fox host’s pushing of conspiracy theories surrounding the attack.

“The Late Show” host Stephen Colbert joined President Joe Biden in mocking Donald Trump’s launch of digital trading cards, proposing what could have been a more enterprising and credible idea.
“This morning, the former president dropped the blockbuster news,” Colbert tensely and sarcastically begins, before reading the text Trump used to announce his supposed Nft launch earlier Thursday on his social media platform Truth Social as the post was displayed onscreen.
“That’s right,” Colbert said, flabbergasted. “The ex-president of the United States- the ex-most powerful man in the world — has launched a line of trading cards.”

One year after the fact, the uprising that took place, before millions of horrified and amazed eyes, at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C., on Jan. 6, 2021 — a protest, an insurrection, a riot, an act of mass vandalism, a piece of made-for-the-media guerrilla theater, and a primal assault on democracy — looks, if anything, even scarier now than it did then.
A group of anarchists posing as freedom fighters, busting into the Capitol, threatening and committing violence, taking cues (one almost wants to say orders) from on high — that is, from the President of the United States. However ramshackle it may have been in execution, this was an attempted coup, and the meaning of it should never be far from our minds. The reason you could say it’s scarier now is that the riot, at the time, was contained; it was a slipshod coup that failed. But with a year of hindsight,...

Jacob Chansley, the horned and face-painted “QAnon shaman” who instantly became one of the most visible and recognizable figures storming the Capitol and the Senate chamber in the January 6 riot, was sentenced to 41 months in prison.
Judge Royce Lamberth said that he was moved by a lengthy statement that Chansley made to the court, arguing that he had taken responsibility and expressed remorse for his conduct, but called his actions “terrible.”
“What you did here was obstruct the functions of the government,” Lamberth said. Chansley also was sentenced to 36 months of supervised release. He also will be credited for the 11 months that he already has served in custody.
In his statement to the court, Chansley said that he had “no excuse whatsoever” for his conduct “but that “I am in no way, shape or form a dangerous criminal. … I am not an insurrectionist. I am a good man who broke the law.

A federal courtroom is a lot like a box of chocolates. You never know what you’re going to get.
That was never truer than Friday, when the attorney representing Jacob Chansley, aka Jake Angeli, better known as the “QAnon Shaman,” used the fictional film Forrest Gump in his argument before a federal judge.
The QAnon Shaman faces felony charges of interfering with police during a civil disorder and obstruction of Congress, as well as several misdemeanor counts. He was arrested in Arizona on Jan. 9 and has been in custody since. Chansley has argued that he was allowed into the Capitol building by police. His bare-chested and be-horned fur hat were widely publicized as a symbol of the Jan. 6 insurrection.

Shows on “60 Minutes+” will be longer than the traditional TV version of “60 Minutes.” The first three episodes, which will be released next Thursday on Paramount+, will feature an interview with Jacob Chansley, the “QAnon shaman” who stormed the U.S. Capitol in January; a profile of the musician J Balvin; and a report on shrinking glaciers.
