Mariposa Castro, also known as Imelda Acosta, was sentenced Wednesday by U.S. District Judge Reggie Walton. She also received a $5,000 fine from the judge, who said the January 6 attack had "totally undermined" the peaceful transfer of presidential power, NBC News reported.
Throughout the day, Castro posted videos on her Facebook account showing the riot from inside the building and outside on restricted grounds. One video shows her climbing through a broken window, using the platform located at the lower west terrace of the Capitol, according to court records.
As she was entering the Capitol, she could be heard saying, "I'm going in. I'm going in the Capitol. We're in! We're inside the Capitol house. We got inside the Capitol," according to the court records.
In another video posted to Facebook, she could be heard saying "we're coming" and "this is war" after an unknown person declared that "traitors will be shot," according to the complaint.

She totally had a lapse in judgement here.
I have two other friends that watched as others went into the capitol and were extremely distraught over it.
Still, the BLM/Antifa crowd hasn't been as equally prosecuted for their very and tangible destruction which can still be seen in cities like San Francisco and Oakland...
I've got a clue to sell to anyone. Never ever enter a government building or cross a government fence of any kind except when authorized and on peaceable business, which would exclude any sort of expression of dissent or demonstration or any expression of general disatisfaction with the powers that be. And sure don't climb over or through a fence or go through an entrance made by force. And don't climb through broken glass.
It's just plain dumb.
Informed Jurors know what to do in these types of cases, if these unwise protestors are lucky enough to get them.
Yeah she broke the law but 45 days for declaring war is just ridiculous. the judge is a moron.
Didn’t read, but what is the actual charge?
totally undermined” the peaceful transfer of presidential power,
/\
Ummm, TaliBidens in the white house .
It undermined nothing.
The fraud coup happened.
yep
I was very upset when watching events unfold that day.
Their ungoverned actions that day undermined our message.
Never ever enter a government building or cross a government fence of any kind except when authorized and on peaceable business, which would exclude any sort of expression of dissent or demonstration or any expression of general disatisfaction with the powers that be.Does peacefully following police orders apply, as well?
A corrupted election has "totally undermined" the peaceful transfer of presidential power.
Unless you are a useful idiot of the Deep State, which totally allows their people to do this all the time every year.
You don't remember them cornering senators in the Senate building elevator and demanding they don't confirm Bret Kavanaugh?
I bet I can find pictures of it if you've forgotten.
When the Weather Underground actually blew up the place, they never went after those bastards nearly to the level they did for people expressing outrage over a stolen election.
A Washington DC Jury, which gets it's income from the corrupt Federal Government, is going to do exactly what that corrupt government wants it to do.
Don't kid yourself. These are show trials.
There were probably hundreds of BLM rioters shouting radical slogans, entering businesses through broken doors and windows, and looting, who got off with no charges whatsoever, or had them dropped.
Antifa was setting fire to federal buildings and attacking cops.
And not I don't advocate treating anyone the way the Jan 6 crowd was treated.
+1.
