'J6 Praying Grandma' Sentenced to Home Confinement and $103K Fine
Rebecca Lavrenz, convicted for her role in the Capitol riot, plans to appeal her sentence and fine.
- Lavrenz, 72, received six months of home confinement and a $103,000 fine for her involvement in the January 6 Capitol riot.
- Prosecutors had sought a 10-month prison sentence, but the judge opted for home confinement to prevent her from profiting off her conviction.
- Lavrenz has raised over $230,000 through crowdfunding, which has been used for legal expenses and a speaking tour.
- Her sentence includes a six-month internet ban, limiting her ability to raise funds for her appeal.
- Lavrenz's legal team argues the fine is unprecedented for a misdemeanor case and plans to challenge it.
