An Oath Keeper Who Helped Feds Prosecute Seditious Conspiracy Cases Is Finally Sentenced

Huff Post  

LOADING ERROR LOADING After cooperating with prosecutors for over two years and admitting to his role in the seditious conspiracy to stop the transfer of power on Jan. 6, 2021, Brian Ulrich, a former Georgia member of the Oath Keeper extremist group, was sentenced to 36 months, or three years, of probation on Tuesday, in line with a considerably lenient request from the Justice Department. “And if there’s a civil war, then there’s a civil war,” Ulrich wrote in one December 2020 message to fellow Oath Keepers just ahead of the insurrection. When the Oath Keepers finally arrived at the steps of the Capitol, they clasped hands on each other’s backs to form a “stack” formation that would let them barrel through the crowd, Ulrich testified. In a sentencing memorandum, Ulrich’s attorneys noted that Ulrich had admitted to making a “series of bad choices that led him to this legal reckoning” and that much of what he did in the beginning when chatting with Oath Keepers was simply about “fanning the flames of discord and violence regarding the transfer of presidential power to Joseph R. Biden.” Nonetheless, he admitted he still came to Washington, purchased two-way radios and tactical gear, and was intent on stopping the certification.
