Nathan Pelham got into a standoff with law enforcement this year after he learned he was being charged in connection with the Capitol attack.

    “Reduced penalties” shouldn’t be two years. Especially after shooting at cops. A plea bargain should result in a lesser sentence, not a ridiculously lesser sentence. May I remind you that these people tried to overthrow the U.S. government?

      Alternatively, you could educate yourself on how Federal Sentencing guidelines work & quit shooting the messenger?

        How many other people die by cops for having something that looks like a firearm in their hands?

        If the justice system in the states was consistent he would be dead.

          That’s an argument for having cops not be literal excrement, not for increasing sentencing standards.
