His 22-year sentence is likely to remain the lengthiest for anyone charged in connection with the attack itself \u2014 a mark that exceeds the 18-year sentences handed down to Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes and Tarrio\u2019s ally Ethan Nordean.
\nProsecutors portrayed Tarrio as a uniquely influential figure who singularly organized a group of hardened Proud Boys members and aimed them at the Capitol on Jan. 6. They said his sentence had to serve as a deterrent to anyone who might target America\u2019s system of government in the future.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe was on a tier of his own,\u201d said Assistant U.S. Attorney Conor Mulroe. \u201cThis was a calculated act of terrorism.\u201d”<\/p>\n
…<\/p>\n
“Tarrio also apologized to police officers, lawmakers and D.C. residents for the carnage of Jan. 6.<\/p>\n
\u201cI had the choice multiple times to calm things out and I didn\u2019t. I persisted when I should have calmed,\u201d he said.”<\/p>\n
