Jeffrey Schaefer

Jeffrey Schaefer, owner of a charter transportation company in Milton, Delaware, was watching television at a Tinder date's Alexandria, Virginia apartment on Jan. 6, 2021 when he saw footage of the riot and took an Uber to the U.S. Capitol, entering through a broken window near the Senate Wing doors at about 2:50 p.m.; he took photos and videos as he moved from the Senate Wing to the Crypt and a conference room before exiting around 3:18 p.m., later posting on Facebook that he had been "tear gassed 10 times" and encouraging the destruction of CNN equipment, then deleting all his photos and videos from the day. He pleaded guilty to one charge, parading, demonstrating, or picketing in a Capitol building, with other charges dismissed. He was sentenced on 11/18/2022 to 30 days of incarceration, a $2,000 fine, $500 in restitution, and a $10 special assessment.
