Vođa američke desničarske milicije Oath Keepers osuđen je na 18 godina zatvora zbog svoje uloge u neredima na američkom Kapitolu, javlja u četvrtak BBC. Stewart Rhodes, osnivač Oath Keepersa, osuđen je zbog pobunjeničke zavjere i drugih zločina.

Rhodes je 6. siječnja ostao ispred Kapitola, no s članovima milicije koji su upali u zgradu koordinirao je poteze. Ova presuda je najduža koju je dobio neki od napadača na Kapitola. Tužitelji su tražili 25 godina.

Pokazao malo kajanja

Na saslušanju u četvrtak, vođa milicije pokazao je malo kajanja, tvrdeći da je politički zatvorenik i inzistirajući da je njegova skupina samo željela zaštititi druge prosvjednike.

Sudac Amit Mehta odbacio je te tvrdnje i izrazio zabrinutost zbog Rhodesove nasilne retorike, uključujući i prijetnju da će objesiti bivšu predsjednicu Zastupničkog doma Nancy Pelosi. Rhodes, bivši padobranac američke vojske i odvjetnik s diplomom Yalea, osnovao je Oath Keeperse 2009. godine.
