Two cousins with extensive criminal records were sentenced Wednesday to 45 days in jail for storming the U.S. Capitol during the pro-Trump insurrection on January 6.
"What you're being punished for is the decision to take that protest and turn it into a violent occupation of the U.S. Capitol... at a time when we were attempting the peaceful transfer of power. Something that has never been interrupted in our country's history," Chutkan said. A total of 17 rioters have been sentenced so far, out of more than 630 people facing criminal charges. Three of the four defendants who were sentenced this week received some jail time.
Their criminal records factored into Chutkan's decision to send them to jail. Hemenway spent five years in prison for sexually assaulting and illegally detaining a woman in 2006. Bauer has several drug convictions dating back to 1999, though he has been sober for the last 15 years.
