The U.S. Department of Justice is seeking a four-month prison term for Victoria Charity White, the Minnesota woman who was beaten in the head, neck, and face nearly 40 times by Metropolitan Police Department officers on Jan. 6, 2021.

A DOJ sentencing memorandum (pdf) filed with U.S. District Judge John Bates glosses over the severe beating Ms. White endured inside the Lower West Terrace tunnel, claiming instead that she should have never entered the tunnel in the first place.
