LAS VEGAS — Federal prosecutors in Washington, D.C., have amended criminal charges against a Tennessee man and a Nevada resident who were arrested in Las Vegas in January and accused of violence at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6.

Court records show that Nathaniel DeGrave of Las Vegas pleaded not guilty Monday to the revised charges, and Ronald Sandlin, who lives near Memphis, pleaded not guilty Sept. 21.

Snip

Prosecutors allege that Sandlin and DeGrave conspired beginning in December 2020 to interfere with the peaceful transition of presidential power.

Both remain in federal custody pending a court date in Washington on Oct. 21. Each faces charges that could put him in prison for decades.

Nothing more at link except that lawyers for these terrorists did not respond to the news agency requesting comment.

5. Absofuckingloutely!

[Hortensis]

3. Conspiracy to interfere with the presidential transition!

BFD! Either conspiracy was added or upgraded. Well, at least they won't have to worry about being hung or shot by firing squad for treason.

4. Good.

6. Agreed!

14. TFG better start worrying ! they are going after the top people ?

[SergeStorms]

22. If they're getting deeper into conspiracy...

the buck stops with the orange lardass that was in the Oval Office at the time. He started it, and they should end it with him.

7. About time we get some sentences with teeth.

[lagomorph777]

11. Damned straight.

[Sherman A1]

8. Good

[lagomorph777]

9. Could these be the first insurrectionists actually charged with a serious crime?

I hope this indicates DOJ is starting to take the coup seriously.

[gratuitous]

10. I think it's more indicative of evidence that's developing

It's tough to charge someone with conspiracy until you establish their connection with another conspirator.

[wnylib]

18. A fact that's sometimes forgotten

in the desire to see the terrorists held accountable. I believe that we will get there as evidence of connections between these domestic terrorists accumulates.

[Harker]

25. The great number of people communicating with one another

and blabbing to their fellow insurrectionists as they captured their "heroic" deeds on their phones should provide evidence of innumerable conspiracies.

[NurseJackie]

13. They've always taken it seriously.

starting to take the coup seriously.

They've always taken it seriously.

16. Each faces charges that could put him in prison for decades

[wnylib]

19. May they take down many others with them.

[rickford66]

20. They need some jail time.

The next GQP president will surely pardon all 600+ insurrectionists.

[musclecar6]

21. Looks

Like nothing but misery for these guys. Let’s hope TFG and his lap dogs also get their share of justice.

24. This is where traitors belong....
