WASHINGTON – A Stark County man learned Monday he must spend 49 months in federal prison for his role in breaching the U.S. Capitol.

John Douglas Wright, 56, was sentenced in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia., more than two years after the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection.
…
Wright addressed Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly, expressing remorse and taking responsibility.

“I want to apologize for my actions, not just to you, but to the government, to fellow Americans,” Wright said. “I was there and am responsible for it."
aid.

During the sentencing, the U.S. attorney showed video footage and photographs of Wright at the Capitol. The footage showed Wright pushing against barricades by the Capitol Police, as well as another video showing him pushing a piece of the metal barricade fencing down on a Capitol Police officer.

According to court documents, Wright organized two charter buses that he owned to travel to Washington, D.C., charging 100 people $50 each to go to D.C. for the “Stop the Steal” rally.

1. So this Indiana man got justice served.

6. My bad! I asked Alexa and she said Indiana

25. Busted Machine again

42. Made me laugh. Keenan Thompson is a hoot.

[SouthernDem4ever]

48. For us, it was especially funny

We had an elderly parent living with us and we got her Alexa to give her something to listen to music or hear a book reading but she could never get the hang of it. She would wait too long after saying Alexa before requesting something lol.

[yonder]

50. 👍

3. If you were in the Capitol that day...

...the last person you want staring you down from the bench is Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly. She was made a DC Superior Court judge by Reagan, and elevated to the federal bench by Clinton. Hopefully she gets the opportunity to throw all these guys in prison before she completely retires from the bench - she went into Senior Judge status on February 21, 2023.

[Maraya1969]

5. He is only the second person to apologize for their actions on Jan 6?

That is frightening.

[ProfessorGAC]

14. Another Expressed Remorse In Court...

...but went on social media to recant his "apology".
He may not be the only one to do that.
So I'm not surprised only 2 showed actual remorse.

[bottomofthehill]

26. In her court room.

Others who have appeared before other judges have apologized.

[Cha]

8. TY.. glad he apologized.

[Chainfire]

9. At his age, two years in the pokey and a criminal record, he will be hard pressed to get

whatever career he had going back before retirement. I am glad these pawns are having to pay for their actions, I just wish that the Kings had to pay as well.

[Demobrat]

15. He owned a couple of charter buses

so maybe he was self-employed.

[flashman13]

20. I don't know if he was self employeed but he grifted a quick 5Gs off of the other rubes.

[Demobrat]

30. More than double the restitution.

Plus he gets free room and board for two years. So far he’s coming out ahead.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

33. Where is this 2 years coming from?

He was sentenced to 49 months, which equals out to 4 years and 1 month.

[DENVERPOPS]

36. LOL

Really makes you wonder, don't it.........

[MarineCombatEngineer]

37. Yeah, it does.

It's really simple math.

[DENVERPOPS]

38. We should have never wasted all that time

bothering to go to elementary school, and actually paying attention, huh.......

Even worse is the way that supposedly college educated people slaughter the English language my friend, (if I may call you that.)

[MarineCombatEngineer]

47. .....

Even worse is the way that supposedly college educated people slaughter the English language my friend, (if I may call you that.)

Only if I can call you my friend.

[DENVERPOPS]

49. I salute you MCE

[homegirl]

41. Ig he has been

jailed while awaiting trial that time is considered as Time Served.And deducted from the 49 month sentence.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

46. Yes, I am aware of that,

but nowhere in the story posted does it say anything about time served already.

[Beachnutt]

10. Awfully nice of the court to give him until mid June

to report to prison not many people are afforded that luxury after beating a cop with a steel fence panel....
Thanks judge you're a sweetie.

[intheflow]

13. Right? WTF is that about?! 😡

[Evolve Dammit]

18. I share your outrage.

[MyOwnPeace]

11. THIS made me chuckle.......

He has to pay a 'restitution' of $2000 to the "ARCHITECT OF THE CAPITOL."

Yeah, that's the guy that Joe just fired because he couldn't bother to be there on Jan. 6, in spite of ALL of the warnings!

[bottomofthehill]

28. He was actually fired for using his car for personal use

Like trips to Florida, trips to the local wineries and letting his wife and daughter use his G ride. The one day he should have used it, 1/6. He did not. He stayed home scared to come to work.

[MyOwnPeace]

32. "He stayed home scared to come to work."

And that's my point.
The guy was getting heat for MANY reasons, and even the Repukes were complaining about him - and PRESIDENT BIDEN seized the moment and 'made him gone!'
Yes, he was another FAILED tRUMP appointment.
And YES, Joe got him gone!

[gibraltar72]

12. FAFO!!!

[Bo Zarts]

22. Yep!

[Emile]

16. Great news, Trump next?

[Initech]

17. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes!

[Evolve Dammit]

19. The penalties are not commensurate with the desire to burn our country down.

[Traildogbob]

21. The J6 Prison Choir

Are auditioning for some tenors. (Check out the song they released last week, with trump pledging allegiance to the flag during their singing) Spotify and Apple Music. Pretty damn sickening. Not a joke, this is a real thing.

[republianmushroom]

23. like it

[BlueWaveNeverEnd]

24. so long patriot

[gopiscrap]

29. fuck him

hope he dies in prison

[MagickMuffin]

31. Not near enough time for the crime, he provided buses

Which means he helped to create more chaos and destruction to our Capitol. My judgment would’ve been more severe than 49 months!

[Stuart G]

34. i wonder if the person who caused the "Riot" will go down too?

[wryter2000]

35. I have a feeling

The next time Trump calls for a riot, people won't show up.

[DENVERPOPS]

40. Dubious

given the political atmosphere still being displayed.........Out of 70 million Republican Patsy voters, there are bound to be more from where they came from. And, quite possibly many of the militia groups around the nation that didn't show up last time round.......

At this stage of the game, I wouldn't be surprised at anything.......Just think about how many times in the past 6+ years we have repeatedly said: "They Can't Do That".........and they actually did it, and worse, never paid for it.......except for these few clowns........

[Justice matters.]

43. Doubt it.

Now that they know their dear hair furhair ordered the metal detectors to be shut down, they may bet they'll be able to bring their AR15s with them next time.

Only 17.75 months left before the 60-day LE blackout rule kicks in...

And hair furhair still golfs at our expense (SS protected).

[Wonder Why]

39. And two on the run as fugitives. Where's Steve McQueen and "Wanted: Dead or Alive"?

[liberaltrucker]

44. Or Richard Boone

"Have Gun, Will Travel".

[claudette]

45. Somebody please

send this info to Sucker Carlson.
