Prosecutors recommended more than 5 years in jail for a Jan. 6 rioter who assaulted police and participated in some of the most violent episodes of the entire attack
Prosecutors on Friday recommended more than five years in jail for a Jan. 6 rioter who assaulted police and participated in some of the most violent episodes of the entire attack, the steepest sentence sought to date and a harbinger of even longer sentence requests that could come.
The Justice Department called for a 63-month sentence for Palmer, which prosecutors noted was on the lower end of the recommended range based on the details of his crime. The primary reason for that decision was that Palmer was one of the few felony defendants to plead guilty early and cooperate with law enforcement.
“Unlike Fairlamb, Palmer engaged in repeated assaults on law enforcement, acquired and used dangerous weapons, and never sought to assist law enforcement,” Juman noted. Murphy is one of nine House lawmakers on the Jan. 6 select committee probing multiple aspects of the attack.
