Last person convicted of seditious conspiracy in the U.S.?

October 1, 1995: Omar Abdel-Rahman and nine others were convicted of seditious conspiracy after the 1993 World Trade Center bombing

Tarrio did not even enter, or come near the Capitol on Jan 6. This is an utter disgrace.

The last people convicted of seditious conspiracy were members of the Oath Keepers in 2022 and 2023.

(Playing devil’s advocate here...)

There are plenty of instances where not being physically present at a “crime scene” is a defense against a conspiracy to commit said crime.

For instance... if a woman hires someone to kill her husband, gives the hitman information about where her husband will be and when, and then goes to get her hair done during the attack. She’s absolutely part of a conspiracy even if she’s under the hair dryer when the attack happens.

I’m not saying that this guy hired anyone to do anything. I’m just giving an example of how his physical presence at a “crime” (or lack thereof) isn’t pertinent to a conspiracy charge.
