A New Jersey electrician, Christopher Joseph Quaglin, was sentenced to 12 years in prison for repeatedly attacking police officers during the Capitol riot on January 6, 2021. Quaglin insulted and argued with the judge before and after receiving his sentence, calling the judge "Trump's worst mistake of 2016." Quaglin clashed with police for hours during the riot, assaulting officers with stolen shields, bike racks, and pepper spray. Prosecutors sought a 14-year sentence, emphasizing Quaglin's violent actions and intent to disrupt Congress. The judge convicted Quaglin of multiple assaults and emphasized the severity of his actions on that day.
