Dean Harshman

Dean Harshman, 36, of Waynesville, Ohio, a Marine veteran, traveled to Washington, D.C. to attend the "Stop the Steal" rally and entered the U.S. Capitol through the broken Senate Wing door during the Jan. 6, 2021 riot, making his way to the Crypt and into a nearby office, remaining inside for about 15 minutes; he recorded much of his conduct on his cell phone, at one point shouting, "This is the stuff they ain't gonna show you on TV!" He pleaded guilty to one charge, disorderly or disruptive conduct in a restricted building, with a felony obstruction charge and other counts dismissed. He was sentenced on 1/16/2025 to two years of probation, including 90 days of home incarceration, $500 in restitution, and a $25 special assessment.
