Duke Wilson, who was arrested in Idaho in April, was known as #FakeNewsHat. He pleaded guilty to an assault count and an obstruction count, both felonies. huffpost.com/entry/trump-ca…
Wilson faces a max of 20 years in federal prison as this plea agreement edit makes clear (although there’s essentially zero chance he gets that). 
There were a lot of developments last week involving a few attention-grabbing Jan. 6 suspects, a few of whom were arrested pretty quickly after the attack. A thread.
Gracyn Courtright, the college senior who said that “infamy is just as good as fame” and said she couldn’t wait to tell her grandkids about Jan. 6 took a plea: huffpost.com/entry/gracyn-c…
#FloridaFlagJacket, who self-doxxed on video and was arrested 12 days after HuffPost identified him based on @CountryOvParty’s work, will also be taking a plea: huffpost.com/entry/robert-s…
#SeditionHunters from the Mountain West will be happy that Idaho extremist #IamPamHemphill is now arrested for her Jan 6 actions! No charging docs yet but it's reported by Boise Public Radio. See thread below for 1/6 sightings... 1/
... and thread by @AFriendlyDad for the past actions in Idaho that got Hemphill named as a Capitol #SeditionVIP. This was not an arrest anyone expected soon, because she hasn't been seen inside the Capitol... 2/
....but the source seems trustable; here's the article by Boise Public Radio reporter @HDruzin. Little detail on actions at the Capitol, so will be very interesting to see the court docs when they're available. What prompted this arrest, why now? 3/
