We Know Where Jimmy Pesto Sr. Was on January 6
Bob’s Burgers actor Jay Johnston plans to plead guilty for his involvement in the Capitol riot.
We’re sure the Bob’s Burgers character Jimmy Pesto Sr. is always getting asked about where he was on January 6 based vibes alone, but it’s only his former voice actor who can answer in the affirmative. Bob’s Burgers actor Jay Johnston is expected to plead guilty on July 8 for his involvement in the riots on the U.S. Capitol, according to dockets reviewed by NBC News justice reporter Ryan J. Reilly. The expected plea comes a little over a year after Johnston was arrested and charged with felony obstruction of officers and several misdemeanors for entering a tunnel of the Capitol, assisting other rioters, and using a stolen police shield while battling with police. Johnston’s involvement first came to light when the FBI posted a photo of the actor while seeking information about people who participated in the riot in 2021. Online sleuths immediately recognized him as a bit player in Anchorman and Arrested Development. Months later, Johnston was booted from Bob’s Burgers. This is history in the making.
