This was a Trump appointed judge that gave this slap on the wrist sentence to this insurrectionist too?!!
WASHINGTON, D.C. - A Sewell man has received an eight-month prison term for his role in the U.S. Capitol riot.
Philip Young, 61, had sought house arrest for six months, while the prosecution wanted a 40-month prison term, court records show.
Young, a retired boilermaker, pleaded guilty in November to two felonies — interfering with officers during a civil disorder and assaulting, resisting, or impeding law enforcement officers.
He also admitted guilt to five misdemeanor charges arising from the Jan. 6, 2021, riot by supporters of then-President Donald Trump.
According to court records, Young was among several rioters who pushed a bike-rack barricade into a line of police officers near the beginning of the riot.
He later deflated tires on a government vehicle, the records say.
Young was identified in part through his jacket, which carried the logo of a South Jersey-based boilermakers union, a criminal complaint says.
