Slap On Wrist: DOJ Recommends Suspected J6 Provocateur Ray Epps Serve 6 Months In Prison

• Need To Know

The Biden Department of Justice is recommending suspected January 6th provocateur Ray Epps be handed a six-month prison sentence for his involvement in the Capitol riot. Epps was documented telling individuals "we need to go into the Capitol" on Jan. 5th and, "We're here to storm the capitol," on Jan. 6th. He also texted his nephew about the events at the Capitol, writing, "I was in the front with a few others. I also orchestrated it." The DOJ claims they gave him a plea deal because he cooperated with the FBI, tried to "deescalate conflict" and was the subject of "conspiracy theories".

In another video, Ray Epps appears to be hoisting the massive Trump sign with several other Trump supporters toward the police.

The Biden Department of Justice is recommending suspected January 6th provocateur Ray Epps be handed a six-month prison sentence for his involvement in the debacle.

Filed on Tuesday, the DOJ sentencing memorandum claims Epps receiving a six-month sentence would be the "high end" of sentencing guidelines under the plea deal he reached with the feds.
