Troy E. Sargent

Troy E. Sargent, 38, of Pittsfield, Massachusetts, stepped forward from the crowd at about 2:30 p.m. during the Jan. 6, 2021 riot and swung his open hand at a U.S. Capitol Police officer, making contact; after another officer warned the crowd not to attack people, Sargent advanced again thirty seconds later and swung at the same officer a second time, later bragging to someone on social media, "I got two hits in on the same rookie cop." He pleaded guilty to all six charges against him, including felony civil disorder and assaulting, resisting, or impeding officers. He was sentenced on 12/12/2022 to 14 months of incarceration with credit for time served, 2 years of supervised release, a $285 special assessment, and $500 in restitution.
