Convicted of
Antony Vo, of Bloomington, Indiana, drove with his mother to Washington, D.C. to attend Trump's Jan. 6, 2021 "Stop the Steal" rally, then entered the U.S. Capitol during the riot and spent about 27 minutes inside, taking photos and shouting "Freedom!" as he moved through the complex. He pleaded not guilty to all charges; a jury convicted him on 9/22/2023 of all charges, including disorderly conduct and parading, demonstrating, or picketing in a Capitol building. He was sentenced on 4/10/2024 to 9 months of incarceration, 12 months of supervised release, a $70 special assessment, and a $1,000 fine; after a judge warned that Vo did not believe "the law applies to him," he fled to Canada rather than report to prison and was later arrested in Whistler, British Columbia and charged on 1/15/2025 with failure to appear.
