Two Oregon brothers have pleaded guilty for their involvement in the Jan. 6 insurrection in 2021.
On Wednesday, 28-year-old Matthew Leland Klein pleaded guilty to civil disorder and entering or remaining in a restricted building or grounds. His 24-year-old brother, Jonathanpeter Allen Klein, pleaded guilty to civil disorder and assault on certain officers.
Court records show that Jonathanpeter contacted his employer in late December 2020 to request several days off in early January, so he and his brother could attend the “Stop the Steal” rally in Washington, D.C. According to the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, the Kleins then traveled from Portland to Philadelphia on Jan. 4, 2021.
