A federal judge sentenced Kevin Seefried, a man who infamously toted a Confederate flag around the US Capitol on January 6, 2021, to 36 months in prison on Thursday, slamming Seefried's conduct as "appalling."
Judge Trevor McFadden, a Trump appointee, found Seefried guilty of five charges, including obstruction of an official proceeding, disorderly conduct, illegally parading, and entering restricted Capitol grounds as Congress met to certify President Joe Biden's 2020 win.
