A federal judge on Monday ordered that two prominent leaders of the far-right Proud Boys group be detained for their roles in storming the US Capitol, saying they posed a danger to the community and could not be trusted to abide by strict conditions of release.
The ruling by US District Judge Timothy Kelly marked a small victory for the Justice Department, which had failed in two previous efforts to persuade the courts to detain Ethan Rufio Nordean of Auburn, Washington.
Mr Kelly also ordered detention for one of Mr Nordean s co-defendants, Joseph Biggs of Ormond Beach, Florida, who has remained in home confinement since his arrest in January.
