A brother and sister from Tucson have been sentenced for the roles they played in the Jan. 6 breach of the U.S. Capitol.
Cory Konold, 28, was sentenced to 30 days in prison with two years supervised release.
Felicia Konold, 29, received a sentence of 45 days in prison with two years supervised release.
The siblings pleaded guilty in Nov. to obstruction of law enforcement during civil disorder and aiding and abetting.
The Konolds marched with a large group of Proud Boys, across the National Mall and toward the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, eventually stopping at a fenced-off perimeter guarded by United States Capitol Police officers, according to a news release posted by the United States Attorney’s Office, District of Columbia .
Members of the crowd breached the barriers at about 1 p.m., with the Konolds some of the first to cross them, the news release said. The Konolds eventually made their way past several more barricades and to the Capitol’s Lower West Plaza, the release said.
The Konolds remained in the area, despite being told by law enforcement to disperse, the release said.
