Aaron Mostofsky, the son of a Brooklyn judge who stormed the U.S. Capitol wearing a furry 'caveman' costume in January 2021, has been sentenced to prison.
was sentenced on Friday to eight months in prison.
"I feel sorry for the officers that had to deal with that chaos," said Mostofsky, who must report to prison in approximately one month. U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta agreed to give defense lawyers more time to prepare for trial but indicated that he isn't inclined to grant another delay. A few defense attorneys expressed concern about the possible impact if a congressional panel investigating the Jan. 6 riot releases its report around the same time as the first trial. Mehta said that wouldn't be a reason for another delay,"even if 435 members of Congress start reading from the report on the courthouse steps.
In Mostofsky's case, federal sentencing guidelines recommended a prison sentence ranging from 10 months to 16 months. Prosecutors recommended a sentence of 15 months in prison followed by three years of supervised release. A New York Post reporter interviewed him inside the Capitol during the riot. He told the reporter that he stormed the Capitol because"the election was stolen."
