A California man has been sentenced to 20 years for his actions at the Jan. 6, 2021, riot in the U.S. Capitol where he was alleged to have attacked law enforcement.
The prosecution said David Dempsey, who has a criminal history, was “among the few out of thousands of January 6 rioters who engaged in such protracted and vicious attacks” that involved assaulting officers with makeshift weaponry.
