January 6 defendants might have had their jail sentences improperly enhanced

Justice Gorsuch Takes a Blowtorch to the Biden DOJ's Case Concerning J6 Prison Sentences

Snippet of Article: "During oral arguments, Justice Neil Gorsuch poked holes in the Biden Justice Department’s case, listing four instances of “obstructing a Congressional proceeding,” mentioning Rep. Jamaal Bowman’s (D-NY) fire alarm stunt last year: ..."Would a sit-in that disrupts a trial or access to a federal courthouse qualify?" Justice Neil Gorsuch asked. "Would pulling a fire alarm before a vote qualify for 20 years in federal prison?" ...a federal appeals court ruled that up to 100 January 6 defendants might have had their jail sentences improperly enhanced."
