Ruling vacates Capitol rioters’ sentences, may impact Jan. 6 cases


'...A federal appeals court in Washington has ordered a new sentence for a retired Air Force officer who stormed the U.S. Capitol dressed in combat gear, in a ruling issued Friday that could impact dozens of other cases stemming from the Jan. 6, 2021, attack. ...a judge wrongly applied an enhancement that lengthened the recommended prison sentence range under federal guidelines. The enhancement — on the grounds that Brock’s conduct resulted in “substantial interference with the administration of justice” — has been applied in more than 100 other Jan. 6 defendants’ cases'
