Bremerton resident sentenced to four months for participating in Jan. 6 riot

A Bremerton resident will serve four months in prison for his participation in the Jan. 6, 2021, U.S. Capitol riot.

David Rhine, 54, sought one year of probation and 100 hours of community service. The government asked for one year of incarceration, one year of supervised release, 60 hours of community service and $500 in restitution.

U.S. District Judge Rudolph Contreras sentenced Rhine to four months of incarceration for each of four misdemeanors, to run concurrently, followed by one year of supervised release on each count, concurrently. Contreras ordered Rhine to pay a $7,376 fine but no restitution.

Rhine and thousands of President Donald Trump supporters disrupted a joint session of Congress that was meeting to certify President-elect Joe Biden’s victory. He was convicted on April 24 in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia of all four crimes of which he was charged.

Got off lightly in my opinion.
