Law Capitol Rioter Megathread

Rioter Found Guilty in Capitol Attack; Sentencing Pending​


A man who participated in the January 6th Capitol riot, representing himself with “sovereign citizen” arguments, has been found guilty on multiple charges, including obstruction of an official proceeding and engaging in physical violence. The defendant, Taylor James Johnatakis, will be sentenced at a later date.

The events of January 6th, 2021, saw supporters of then-President Donald Trump storming the Capitol in an attempt to prevent the certification of Joe Biden’s victory. Johnatakis joined the riot and played an active role in assaulting police officers, according to the US attorney for the District of Columbia.

Johnatakis employed the ideology of “sovereign citizen,” a fringe movement characterized by its rejection of government authority. However, his arguments were dismissed by the judge, Royce C Lamberth, who labeled them as “bullshit” and “gobbledegook.”


lol we've got another sovereign citizen here, and by the looks of things, it's going just about as well for him as you would expect. gobbledygook lmao

I didn't click the "x" because fuck all those motherfuckers, but I'm gathering from this he committed suicide rather than go to prison? How pathetic. Don't do the crime if you can't do the time.

ive been watching a fair bit of sovereign citizens videos lately because i find them hilarious as fuck. these idiots will turn their traffic tickets into the death penalty if you let them just keep talking!

usually every single one of them always starts with a dude who gets pulled over or kicked out of a store or restaurant and then refuses to identify himself to police, and instead he starts spinning around in circles going off of his script until the cop gets bored of having to repeating the same lawful orders and decides to arrest the guy.

"I wasn't driving, i was travelling! I don't consent to being arrested! I don't want to go to jail! You're kidnapping me!"

i guess they think they don't have to follow the law and they know their rights, but clearly they don't because none of them seem to ever want to exercise their right to remain silent. instead they just try to talk nonsense around in circles and ignore the cops demands and wasting everybodies time and only end up getting themselves into more trouble.

alot of times these idiots would have only ended with some fines and ended up having their vehicle impounded. instead they decide to fuck around and end up "travelling" to jail. these people are dumb as shit. the only way they could be any dumber is if they put a maga hat on.

check out this weeks 2-for-1 special. the first dude refuses to identify, has another sovereign citizen guru on the phone with him as he gets dragged out the car and arrested. the other idiot on the phone eventually rolls up to the scene, plays games, gets dragged out of her vehicle and arrested lol.



ive seen the odd one where the dude fails to identify himself to police and after the police arrest him and take his wallet, it turns out that his drivers license is in there and they look him up and it turned out that he's got a valid drivers license! all he had to do was identify himself and they would have let him on his way, probably withou a ticket either. but instead they wanted to play games and be a dick to the police and end up talking themselves into going to jail.

these will never get old to me.

Prosecutors Call for 97-Month Sentence for Jan. 6 Rioter Who Showed Off Cop’s Blood on His Hands​

Jack Wade Whitton Jr. yelled: 'You're going to die' as he struck an officer's riot shield, recounted the case against him​


Prosecutors are asking for a 97-month — more than 8-year — sentence of 33-year-old Jack Wade Whitton Jr. of Georgia who was caught on video attacking police officers and posted a photo on Instagram of blood on his hands from one of them following the Capitol riot on January 6, 2021.

“This is from a bad cop. Yea I fed him to the people. Idk [I don't know] his status. And don’t care tbh [to be honest]," read Whitton's Instagram caption in which he bragged about injuring an officer.

According to an account of his crimes in the case against him, he also struck the riot shield of an officer of the Metropolitan Police Department as he yelled: "You're gonna die tonight!"

Whitton pleaded guilty last year to engaging in physical violence in a restricted building or grounds with a dangerous weapon.

Prosecutors are also seeking a $61,000 fine on top of the sentence for Whitton, which was first reported by the Atlanta Journal Constitution (AJC).

Photos and videos of Whitton on the Capitol’s Lower West Terrace show him bashing police officers with a metal crutch and dragging an injured officer, according to the AJC.

Self-proclaimed journalist John Sullivan convicted on all charges in Jan. 6 riot case​

The "anti-establishment" activist who shot the video of Ashli Babbitt's death was ordered into government custody after his conviction.

WASHINGTON — A man who claimed to be a journalist and supporter of the Black Lives Matter movement was convicted Thursday on all charges against him in connection with the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol.

John Earle Sullivan, a 29-year-old from Utah also known as "Jayden X," was convicted of seven counts after just a few hours of deliberation by the jury. Federal prosecutors requested that Sullivan be taken into custody until his sentencing, and U.S. District Judge Royce C. Lamberth ordered him remanded, according to court records.

The charges included felony obstruction of an official proceeding and civil disorder.

John Earle Sullivan.


Sullivan shot one of the most infamous videos of Jan. 6, showing the shooting death of Ashli Babbitt, and sold the rights to several media outlets, including NBC News.

“I was only observing,” Sullivan said in his trial testimony. “I followed the crowd. I’m there to document.”

But the government said that shooting video was just a “ploy” for Sullivan, and played video after video of him urging on the mob on Jan. 6.

“I’m gonna side with anyone who is ready to rip this s--- down,” Sullivan said in one quote cited by prosecutors. “I brought my megaphone to instigate s---,” he said in another video, adding that he wanted to “make those Trump supporters f--- s--- up.”

Prosecutors portrayed Sullivan during the trial as an “anti-establishment” grifter and chaos agent who wanted to “burn it all down” during the Capitol attack.

More than 1,200 people have been charged in connection with the Capitol riot, and more than 400 have been sentenced to periods of incarceration. Online “Sedition Hunters” say about 1,000 additional Jan. 6 participants have been identified but not yet charged.

The judge has yet to schedule a sentencing hearing in Sullivan’s case.
