Convicted of
Andrew Ryan Bennett, of Columbia, Maryland, livestreamed his participation in the Jan. 6, 2021 Capitol riot to Facebook while wearing a hat bearing the Proud Boys logo, though he was not a member of the group. He committed no violence and was noted for admonishing other rioters several times to stop being destructive. He pleaded guilty to parading, demonstrating, or picketing in a Capitol building, and his early plea, cooperation with the FBI, and efforts to discourage destructive behavior were cited as reasons for a lighter sentence: two years of probation with the first three months served as home confinement, 80 hours of community service, and $500 in restitution.
Original sentence
Sentenced 10/1/2021 to 24 months Probation; 80 hours of community service; Special Assessment in the amount of $10; and $500 restitution.
