Another January 6 Trumpist insurrectionist gets his comeuppance. From AP:
"A Montana business owner and supporter of former President Donald Trump has been sentenced to two years in federal prison for his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol that interrupted certification of the 2020 Electoral College vote.
Henry Phillip “Hank” Muntzer, 55, of Dillon was also sentenced Thursday to a year of supervised release and ordered to pay $2,000 in restitution.
Muntzer was arrested two weeks after the siege based on social media posts and videos taken inside the Capitol, according to court records.
He was found guilty in February of obstructing an official proceeding and civil disorder, both felonies, following a bench trial before U.S. District Court Judge Jia M. Cobb. Muntzer was also found guilty of four misdemeanor charges. [snip]
Muntzer was involved in physical confrontations with law enforcement officers near the Senate chamber and in the Capitol Rotunda, resisted law enforcement efforts to get him to leave and was among the last to do so, prosecutors said."
The Malignant Loser has promised to pardon the thugs and losers like Muntzer whom he summoned to the Capitol on the basis of the Big Lie about the election being stolen, and sat and watched the riot from the White House as it unfolded and resulted in over 140 police officers being injured and two subsequently dying. Although under indictment, the Malignant Loser has yet to be tried for his role in the January 6 attempt to overturn the free and fair election that removed him from the Presidency in 2020.
