Proud Boys Joe Biggs, Zachary Rehl Sentenced For Jan. 6 Plot

The Year of Finding Out:

«Biggs wore an orange prison jumpsuit and black, thick-rimmed glasses as he spoke before Judge Kelly early Thursday afternoon, taking breaks to sob during a brief statement.

“My curiosity got the better of me and I will have to live with that for the rest of my life,” he said. “I’m so sorry.”

Judge Kelly responded with a note that the actions taken by Biggs and the Proud Boys upended not just the election process on Jan. 6, but the election process going forward.

“What happened that day … it broke our tradition of the peaceful transfer of power, which is the most precious thing we had as Americans,” Kelly said. “Notice I say had — we don’t have it anymore.”

Rehl, who bragged in communications with Proud Boys about being “proud of what we accomplished” following the Capitol attack, sobbed during his sentencing hearing.

Wearing an orange jumpsuit with shackles around his feet, Rehl stood to address Judge Kelly and expressed remorse for his actions.

“A complete lapse in judgment cost me everything,” Rehl said, according to reporters in the courtroom.»
