GOP Crime Blotter
A long week of news about right-wing crime is starting pretty quickly here.
You guys have a serious law-abiding problem. Work on that, willya? This is exhausting and what a waste of human beings, to sit in jail instead of being out in the world making a living. What's with all the crime?
WASHINGTON—A jury on Monday convicted four people affiliated with the Oath Keepers of conspiring to disrupt the peaceful transfer of power on Jan. 6, 2021, capping a more than monthlong trial that highlighted the far-right militia group’s role in the Capitol attack.
Of six defendants on trial, four—Sandra Parker, Laura Steele, William Isaacs, and Connie Meggs—were found guilty of conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding. They face the prospect of years in prison but weren’t jailed while awaiting trial and will remain free until sentencing.
