A Washington, D.C., judge has found an East Naples man guilty for his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, Capital insurrection.

Christopher Worrell, 52, opted to let a judge hear the evidence rather than going before a jury.

On Jan. 6, 2021, after the loss of President Donald Trump's reelection, a mob of his supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol Building. The mob hoped to prevent Congress from counting electoral college votes and keep then-President-elect Joe Biden from power.

A video of the attack appeared to show Worrell and others accused of storming the building, attacking police officers, breaking building windows and wreaking other damage. Worrell said he is a member of The Proud Boys, a far-right, neo-fascist group that advocates for and participates in politically motivated violent events

1. 52 years old and going to jail while his hero is playing golf. Should have stayed home..

How proud his family must be

2. That's too bad.

Seems to be old enough to know better. Hope he enjoys his time in jail. Fuck You scumbag, you tried to overthrow the US Government by force. Go fuck yourself.

3. Well, he's 52 and likes to participate in violence so prison is

right where he needs to be.

4. Kinda adds a twist on the term 'career criminal'

Even if he’s avoided trouble with the law up to the point he attempted to overthrow the government, he is probably a recidivist who would repeat the crime if given a chance. Perhaps a stint in prison will age him sufficiently that he’ll lose his taste for it.

5. Jails are full of fools like him! nt
