Proud Boys member who went on the run after conviction in the Jan. 6 riot gets 10 years in prison

  • Christopher Worrell, a former member of the Proud Boys, has been sentenced to 10 years in prison for assaulting officers during the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.
  • Worrell fled before his initial sentencing, but was later found and hospitalized for an apparent opioid drug overdose, which prosecutors allege was faked to delay his sentencing.
  • Worrell's defense claimed he brought the spray gel and tactical vest for defensive purposes, due to previous violence between Proud Boys and counter-protesters.
