Tarrio, other J6 defendants get long sentences but BLM rioters received much lighter treatment.
2023-09-08
[JustTheNews] Equal Justice for All? A woman who threw a burning Molotov cocktail into an NYPD vehicle with four officers inside during BLM riots received a six-year sentence. A man who was not even in D.C. during the January 6 riot was sentenced to 22 years in prison for "seditious conspiracy."

Former Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio was sentenced this week to 22 years in prison for leading the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, despite not even being in Washington, D.C., at the time. The long sentences that he and other Jan. 6 defendants have received raises questions when compared to the relatively light sentences given to Black Lives Matter rioters.

Tarrio was sentenced on Tuesday after being convicted of seditious conspiracy in May. The Department of Justice had sought a 33-year prison sentence.

#1  If they want to undermine,if not destroy, our confidence in the justice system, this is exactly the way to go about it.
