In a new sentencing memo, prosecutors are seeking 16 months in jail and three years of supervised release for Kellye SoRelle, noting, 'SoRelle's efforts to obstruct the investigation into the attack on the Capitol, like her participation in the attack itself, show a disdain for the rule of law that merits the government's recommended sentence.' This reflects the serious view that government holds over actions related to the January 6th coup attempt.
SoRelle will be sentenced January 17th, just before Donald Trump's pardon power kicks back in. While Trump has promised pardons for those convicted of January 6th-related crimes, including SoRelle, there's ambiguity about who will actually benefit from such pardons, as acknowledged by J.D. Vance's comment on the 'gray area' surrounding potential pardons.
