WASHINGTON, D.C. — A Shelbyville man pleaded guilty on Friday to carrying a revolver loaded with shotgun shells and hollow points on Capitol grounds along with assaulting law enforcement officers during the Jan 6., 2021, breach of the U.S. Capitol.
Mark Andrew Mazza, 57, pleaded guilty in the District of Columbia to assaulting, resisting, or impeding officers with a dangerous weapon and carrying a pistol without a license. He faces a statutory maximum of 20 years in prison for charges against the officers and up to five years in prison for the firearms charge.
Mazza’s sentence will be determined by a federal district court judge on Sept. 20.
According to federal court documents, Mazza brought a Taurus revolver, loaded with shotgun shells and hollow point bullets, into Washington, D.C., to the Ellipse, and then to the Capitol. Sometime on the U.S Capitol grounds before 2:45 p.m. on Jan. 6, 2021, Mazza lost possession of the revolver.
Mazza then illegally made his way to the Lower West Terrance and into the Capitol building, court documents said. Mazza is captured on video surveillance joining other rioters to push through at least 20 officers who were defending the tunnel entrance to the Capitol.

What about that libtard with a gun trying to kill the highest judge - does that matter? 🤪
But throwing a fire-bomb under a police car, that’s nothing.
Not a very smart move. I can understand wanting to have a weapon for self defense, but stay away from Capital. I don’t think it will end well for him.
Now, let’s see the same rigorous enforcement of BLM and Antifa, or any Leftist that does the same.
these guys are morons to leave this up to a judge.
“What about that libtard with a gun trying to kill the highest judge - does that matter?”
He’s been charged, is in jail without bond, and faces life in prison.
He LOST possession of his gun?
Republican or not he is too stupid .
Those 500,000 people were going to take over the capitol with a one pistol. Got it.
They finally found an armed protestor?
First I heard of rioters being armed.
The UnitedStates Constitution supposedly guarantees the right to a ‘speedy’ trial.
I guess there is an exemption for Madame Pelosi’s Lubyanka (how did I miss that?)
The guy maybe shoulda gone for a jury in the oh so impartial DC court system.
Yeah, that’s the ticket.
Political justice is harsh.
Ashley who. 😠
“captured on video surveillance joining other rioters to push through at least 20 officers who were defending the tunnel entrance to the Capitol.”
Have those tapes ever been released?
And when are they going to use geotracking to investigate who left the pipe bombs at the Democratic and Republican party headquarters????? Or do they already know?
Reichstag Fire
He will not have a speedy trial.
He will not have a trial.
He plead guilty.
Notice that they don’t specify exactly where he lost it, and where it was found...
Notice that they don't specify exactly where he lost it, and where it was found.
They won't get into the details of that, I don't think.
Perhaps after he realized his stupidity in bringing a weapon into the Capitol he ditched it.
Worst insurrection I’ve ever heard of.
He pleaded guilty, dude.
