WASHINGTON A QAnon believer who chased U.S. Capitol Police Officer Eugene Goodman on Jan. 6, 2021, and apparently believed he was storming the White House was sentenced Friday to five years in prison.

A jury found Doug Jensen, of Iowa, guilty on seven counts, including felony charges of civil disorder and assaulting, resisting or impeding officers, in September. He was one of the first 10 rioters to enter the Capitol during the insurrection.

"You were not a hero and not a patriot" on Jan. 6, Judge Timothy Kelly told Jensen as he read the sentence. "But you were not a monster either."
Jensen will additionally be on probation for three years after his release and will have to pay $2,000 in restitution.

In a brief statement to the court, Jensen assured Kelly that he wouldn't be involved in the judicial system again and expressed his wish to go back to being a family man and to his "normal" life before politics.
"I cant change my past, I can just look to the future," he said.

This is the guy that was leading the crowd that Eugene Goodman led away from the senate.

If only he had gone home and been a family man to begin with.

Should be quadruple the sentence he got but at least he'll never vote again.

Should be a life sentence.

...Which goes for all of these traitors.

I'm not happy with this leniency and I'm not convinced the judge won't quietly overturn it a month from now when the media isn't vigilant.

He really is a monster though.

Acting like all these people somehow did this by accident and didn't commit literal treason is a fucking horrible idea.

Light sentence. He knew what he was doing.

"and apparently believed he was storming the White House"

Bullshit!
