WASHINGTON — A then-Princeton University student who yelled “drag them out” while he joined rioters trying to storm the U.S. Capitol was sentenced to two months in federal prison Wednesday, according to court records.
Giberson was a sophomore during the Jan. 6 attack, when he “participated in coordinated pushing and pulling against the police,” according to a government sentencing memo, which said that at one point he even chanted “drag them out!” as rioters assaulted officers.
Giberson told the FBI that he “saw the fear” in former Officer Michael Fanone’s eyes as he was dragged away by the mob.
His defense attorney said Giberson “studied the issues surrounding the 2020 [election] and concluded that state actors had interfered with the electoral process in unconstitutional ways.”
Giberson’s mother said that for her son, the 2020 election was like watching his favorite baseball team on a World Series run.
I feel Larry wanted to be a part of something that he was passionate about, I know he had no intent to be caught up with the wrong crowd," she wrote.
The original article contains 412 words, the summary contains 178 words. Saved 57%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
He got a 2 month sentence I think the punishment fits the crime although it should be highered slightly considering he did assault a poilce officer prehaps 5 or 6 months would work prehaps maybe some compensation or a apology as well
This is the best summary I could come up with:
