Prosecutors had asked that Mr. Reffitt be given 15 years after adding a sentencing enhancement used in cases of domestic terrorism. But Judge Friedrich rejected those terms, sentencing him to seven years and three months in prison with three years of probation, and ordering him to pay $2,000 in restitution and receive mental health treatment. Prosecutors said Guy Reffitt told fellow members of the Texas Three Percenters militia group that he planned to drag U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi out of the Capitol building by her ankles, "with her head hitting every step on the way down," according to a court filing. A jury found Mr. Reffitt guilty on five felony charges in March, including obstructing Congress's certification of the 2020 presidential election, carrying a .40-caliber pistol during the riot and two counts of civil disorder. Unlike others who breached the building, Mr. Reffitt did not go inside. Do you agree with the sentencing of seven years and three months in prison? Yes

Reffitt is one of seven Capitol riot defendants to get a jury trial so far. Jurors have unanimously convicted all seven of them on all counts in their respective indictments. Do you think this will cause more people charged to strike a plea deal instead of going to trial? Yes
