Ex-Boxer who punched the police faced the longest punishment in US Capitol Riot

WASHINGTON: Former boxer was charged with punching police officers Washington in the head during the January 6 attack on US Capitol facing a sentence of up to 51 months in prison after asking for two crime accusations.
Scott Fairlamb, 44, Stockholm, New Jersey, entered the guilty request for accusations of attacking the police and blocked the official process during the attack on the Capitol by supporters of Donald Trump who tried to drop their election defeat.
The prosecutor demanded a sentence of 41 to 51 months in prison.
US District Judge Royce Lamberth said he would not deter Fairlamb until he received a pre-sentence report.
So far, another defendant of the Capitol Riot, who invented guilty has been sentenced to serving an eight-month term, said a law enforcement official.
A number of defendants were sentenced to time presented in pre-trial detention after pleading guilty.
At the end of July, Beryl Howell, the head of the federal judge in Washington, asked the prosecutor to explain why the defendant of the riots was permitted to beg for a legal violation content that brought a short prison sentence.
Harley Breite, Defense Lawyer Fairlamb, told Lamberth that Fairlamb was willing to talk to the FBI researchers, but had not yet done so.
Breite told Reuters that after his arrest, Fairlamb had lost the gym business he operated.
An Affidavit FBI said the citizens concerned submitted a video showing Fairlomb “pushed and punched” a police officer during the riots.
The video sent by other public members shows Fairlomb climbing on metal scaffolding outside the building.
More than 535 people have been charged with taking part in violence when Trump’s supporters invaded the Capitol in an effort to stop the Congress from certifying the victory of Democratic presidential election Joe Biden.
Trump mistakenly claimed he lost the election because of widespread selection fraud.
