FILE - Violent insurrectionists loyal to then-President Donald Trump try to break through a police barrier, Wednesday, Jan. 6, 2021, at the Capitol in Washington. WASHINGTON — A prominent conservative activist’s son was sentenced on Friday to nearly four years in prison for what prosecutors said was his “relentless”Leo Brent Bozell IV, 44, of Palmyra, Pennsylvania , was one of the first rioters to enter the Capitol and among the first to reach the Senate floor during the Jan. 6, 2021, siege.
The judge allowed Bozell to remain free until he must report to prison at a date to be determined. Bozell thanked the judge after learning his sentence. After then-President Donald Trump’s “Stop the Steal” rally near the White House on Jan. 6, Bozell marched to the Capitol and joined a mob in breaking through a police line.
Bozell entered then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s office and left carrying an unidentified object. He later entered the Senate gallery, where he moved a C-SPAN camera to face the ground so it could not record rioters ransacking the chamber on a live video feed. He also spent several minutes on the Senate floor.
