Yvonne St Cyr

Yvonne St Cyr, a former Marine Corps drill instructor from Boise, Idaho, was among the first rioters to enter the U.S. Capitol during the Jan. 6, 2021 riot, crawling through a broken Senate office window, filming the window being destroyed, and standing in the opening shouting to the crowd below in a live-streamed Facebook video that was widely circulated and picked up by national news outlets; at sentencing, she compared herself to Jesus and said, "I did the right thing." She pleaded not guilty to all charges; a jury found her guilty on 3/10/2023 of all six charges, including two felony counts of obstructing and interfering with law enforcement during a civil disorder. U.S. District Judge John D. Bates sentenced her on 9/13/2023 to 30 months of incarceration, 36 months of supervised release, a $270 special assessment, a $1,000 fine, and $2,000 in restitution.
