Violent insurrectionists loyal to President Donald Trump breach the U.S. Capitol in Washington, Jan. 6, 2021. Isreal Easterday, a Kentucky man who stormed the U.S. Capitol at the age of 19 while carrying a Confederate battle flag, has been sentenced to more than two years in prison for pepper spraying two police officers in the face. Chief Judge James Boasberg cited Easterday’s youth as a reason for sentencing him to two years and six months, five times lower than the Justice Department’s initial sentencing recommendation of 12 years and seven months.
