Convicted of
Ralph Joseph Celentano III, 56, of Broad Channel, New York, shoved U.S. Capitol Police Officer Kenrick Ellis over a banister during the Jan. 6, 2021 riot in what prosecutors described as a blind-side tackle. He was arrested in 2022, pleaded not guilty, and was convicted by a jury on June 12, 2023 of two felonies — assaulting, resisting, or impeding officers and civil disorder — along with related misdemeanors. Calling the attack "a truly cowardly and despicable thing to do," U.S. District Judge Timothy J. Kelly sentenced him to 78 months in prison and 36 months of supervised release.
