Proud Boy Joe Biggs receives 17 years in Jan. 6 seditious conspiracy case
The former Infowars correspondent, who was convicted of seditious conspiracy, “served as an instigator and leader" during the Capitol attack, federal prosecutors said.
Joe Biggs, a Proud Boys leader convicted of seditious conspiracy who the government says "served as an instigator and leader" during the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, was sentenced to 17 years in federal prison on Thursday.
It is among the longest sentences in Capitol riot cases. The record is the 18-year sentence given to Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes, also convicted of seditious conspiracy, after prosecutors sought 25 years in federal prison in his case.

Susprised they've given him a harsh sentence
Harsh? Please. He tried to overthrow the government and he got less time than someone caught with a single joint in Mississippi
Pretty sure that's an exaggeration
Again, they were not "just given harsh sentences because of having weed". Reoffending is the cause
So it's justified to throw someone away for the rest of their life because they smoked weed a few times but it's "harsh" to give someone 17 years for trying to overthrow the government?
Did they try to overthrow the government 5 times?
Ladies and gentlemen… I give you the party of ‘law and order’
Their laws and their Order.

Can't
Understand
Normal
ThinkingYou're clearly the one that doesn't understand how laws work. Reoffending is obviously more penalized than the first case, simple as that
You're clearly a repeat offender of being a fucking moron. I vote we lock you up for multiple decades.
Sticking people in cages with violent offenders for smoking a plant is both barbaric and unethical. You attempting to weasel around that and justify this nonsense is exactly what I would expect from someone as fucking stupid as you. Again, AND I ABSOLUTELY CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH:
GET FUCKING WREKT YOU ABSOLUTE NOOB 🖕
The government was seeking 33 years. This is a lenient sentence.
