«SFGate» (sfgate.com) 

Some of the judges punishing rioters who stormed the U.S. Capitol have been pushing back on false narratives being spread about the Jan. 6, 2021, attack.

11 strikes in 16 seconds: One Capitol rioter's violent attack on police with a hockey stick

«SFGate» (sfgate.com) 

It's one of the most violent scenes captured on camera during a mob's attack on the U.S. Capitol more than three years ago: A U.S. Marine Corps veteran from Michigan attacked police officers with a hockey stick, wildly swinging it at least 11 times in 16 seconds. That man, Michael Foy, is now serving a 40-month prison sentence. The judge who punished Foy hasn’t grown numb to the violence that erupted at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
