A couple from Virginia was sentenced to home detention on Wednesday for charges stemming from the Jan. 6 U.S. Capitol riot.
Jessica and Joshua Bustle were charged with illegally entering the U.S. Capitol building and remaining inside for approximately 20 minutes before leaving. Both pleaded guilty to the misdemeanor charges. I seriously considered putting you in jail, U.S. District Court Judge Thomas Hogan told the wife and husband from Bristow. Hogan also noted that the couple came to Washington, D.C., to participate in an anti-vaccine protest, not to engage in efforts to block Congress from certifying the election.
