Former U.S. Capitol Police officer Michael Riley was sentenced to 120 days of home incarceration and two years of probation for offering advice to a rioter and deleting messages when contacted by the FBI. Logan Barnhart, a 42-year-old pipelayer from Michigan, was sentenced to three years in prison for assaulting police at the Capitol during the attack. Judge Amy Berman Jackson took into account Riley's job loss, health issues, and lack of criminal history in delivering the sentence, and noted the seriousness of Barnhart's actions and the need to deter similar behavior in the future.

Abby Grossberg, a former Fox News producer, has accused the network of pressuring her into giving false testimony in a defamation case. In her first television interview with NBC News, Grossberg said she was “bullied, intimidated and coerced” into protecting the network in order to keep her job. Grossberg was fired from Fox News earlier this month after filing a lawsuit against the network, and the full interview is set to air Thursday on “NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt.”
