A Northern Kentucky man, known on Twitter as the "green horn hoodlum," has been sentenced to three years in prison for his role in the Jan. 6, 2021 riot at the U.S. Capitol, court records show.

U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly handed down the sentence last Thursday to 22-year-old Nicholas Brockhoff, according to records filed in federal court in Washington D.C.

He was also sentenced to three years of supervised release that will begin once his prison term is over.

Brockhoff, of Covington, pleaded guilty in October to a single count of assaulting, resisting or impeding officers using a dangerous weapon. As part of his plea, prosecutors dismissed seven other counts, court records show.
