    They've arrested the WV rep and also the guy who sat in Pelosi's office.

    Pelosi office guy:

    Richard Barnett was arrested in Little Rock, Ark., on Friday morning and charged with three counts of entering restricted grounds, violent entry and disorderly conduct at the Capitol and theft of public property, said Principal Assistant U.S. Attorney Kenneth Kohl of the District of Columbia.

    WV Rep:

    Kohl also announced that incoming West Virginia delegate Derrick Evans has been charged with unlawfully entering restricted grounds.

    It seems the 'entering restricted grounds' charge punishment is up to a year in jail with no dangerous weapon, and up to 10 years with a dangerous weapon.

    You were warned.

      @jon-nyc I've heard that at least 12 have been arrested, and more are being sought.

      Lock them up.

      And while you're doing that, send a memo to the mayors of Portland, Minneapolis, Seattle...

      (I couldn't resist the whataboutism. Sorry.)

            Set an example to all violent protests. Prosecute them to the full extent of the law.

            I would love a precedent and don’t think it’s important to look back, just apply evenly go forward!

              If you don't go back and prosecute all the Leftists and Antifa who have burned, pillaged and yep, probably even raped, they're sending a message all right.

                I mostly agree. The people who invaded the Capitol thought they were rescuing the nation from tyranny. They were clearly inspired by the President's words and perceived direction.

                The folks who looted last summer or the idiots in Portland had no noble goal - just self enrichment - pure criminality.

                            This DOJ announcement has 13 charged in Federal Court and 40 charged in Superior Court (I think DC level).

                            What is the difference and why?

                            I think it depends on who/where they picked them up? Thats my guess. Federal property vs streets of DC. Notice a lot of the 40 include curfew violators.

                            You were warned.

                                      They've arrested the WV rep and also the guy who sat in Pelosi's office.

                                      When I first read this I thought it said VW rep. I thought, why a Volkswagen dealer?

                                      Okay, so I'm sometimes lysdexic when in a hurry.

                                        Set an example to all violent protests. Prosecute them to the full extent of the law.

                                        I would love a precedent and don’t think it’s important to look back, just apply evenly go forward!

                                        If you don't go back and prosecute all the Leftists and Antifa who have burned, pillaged and yep, probably even raped, they're sending a message all right.

                                        The wrong message...

                                        I mostly agree. The people who invaded the Capitol thought they were rescuing the nation from tyranny. They were clearly inspired by the President's words and perceived direction.

                                        The folks who looted last summer or the idiots in Portland had no noble goal - just self enrichment - pure criminality.

Lawyers -- especially defense lawyers -- are adept at tactics to stretch the passage of time between offense and trial. The longer the time, the lesser the outrage. I'd rather nail this bunch NOW and let past offenders go.
