Independent journalist Stephen Horn, based in Raleigh, was recently sentenced in connection with the events that transpired at the U.S. Capitol on January 6th. Horn had previously been found guilty in September 2023 on charges of Entering or Remaining in a Restricted Area, Disorderly or Disruptive Conduct in a Restricted Area, Disorderly Conduct in a Capitol Building, and Parading, Demonstrating, or Picketing in the Capitol Building.
He learned his fate earlier this month at a federal court in Washington, D.C. His sentence includes 12 months’ probation, a $2k fine, and 90 hours of community service. Horn called his punishment “lenient for a J6 trial” in a post on X.
